Also ask vet if they have snap cpli test in house so you can get pancreas results quickly as otherwise labs take a little while to come back on cpli longer than other blood testing for some reason at least that has always been the case when they were done for dex. Maybe they are quicker now though.
I am glad you are taking him in always better to be safe 
I get his food from vet purina ha but first you need to see what is going on as could be high fat content in hot dog but usually it happens right away not 3 days later. yorks can have high fat content in blood naturally (high triglycerides) thus leaving them open to pancreatitis. My dex has high triglycerides on 12 hr fasting blood work so this is why we feel also he is prone to pancreatitis. I caution anyone whose york has this to have their dog on low fat diet and no fatty acid supplements.
Purina ha is 8% fat but first you need to know what is going on so let us know and we can further help you |
You are very knowledgable. I will ask about the snap cpli. I really don't think it was the hot dog either. I think it is already out of his system. Thanks again for everything.
