i had ava on the honest kitchen which is a pretty good food; but sometimes when she doesnt eat breakfast i give her baby food; and maybe that's what triggered the pancreatitis.
so what should i do about the RX diet royal canin; what if she doesnt eat it; she's very picky eater. any suggestions?
should i put her on royal canin for a while and then switch her back to the honest kitchen;
or should i give her chicken and rice for a while instead?
thanks much |
I dont have any experience with pancreatis but I have read alot of threads on it. Alot of the people on here that have dealt with it homecook for their yorkies with a recipe given by food nutritionalist Susan Davis. Hopefully one of them sees your post and gives you more info. I know thats the way I would go if faced with that predictament.
