Our vet showed our old diet to our new nutrionist and the low sodium thing was her conclusion...Layla's new diet now has the required sodium that she needs but is also low in fat for her pancreas.
sounds great so i take it her amylase and lipase were high ? were her triglycerides high as my boy has high triglycerides on a 12 hr fast which is a good indicator. Also dogs with high amylase and lipase are known to have ibd so this could have caused her numbers to be high as well.

Glad you have a great nutritionist that is the reason i do not home cook as very nervous about it even though i know it would be best for my allergy baby
