Good catch!
Lamb and pork, gravies, sauces on veges, cheeses, fats, grease, bacon can all cause pancreatitis. Feeding one large amount all at one time, or small amounts over a period of 5 - 7 days can cause it.
You were very lucky and caught it early.
My DH fed Peek a Boo a little piece of American cheese one morning (unknown to me), and over a two week period he had increased it to almost a whole slice.
I came in the kitchen one morning, and Peek was hunched up in the back. I looked at DH (now dumb husband
) and asked 'Okay, What did you feed him?'
He said 'What? I only gave him a little piece of cheese!'
I said 'No,
Exactly what did you give him, how much, and how many days in a row has he been given it?'
He's looking at me weird. I said 'Look at him! He's just about bent in half and can hardly walk! We're going to the vet NOW! Get YOUR wallet out, you did this, you can pay for it! (I don't work: it's all his money, anyway)
He asked,'Well, How much is this going to cost?'
I answered, 'I don't know. Could be $200.00 or $1-2000.00 or more! It depends on how sick he is.
He needs bloodwork first, then he may have to stay in the hospital on IVs for 5-7 days... If you're lucky, he'll get pills and can come home!
Thank God we got lucky, and , like you, we caught it early. Less expensive that way. And less traumatic for the doggies.
But it could get very bad, and always be aware of it bc it could happen again, just know it's best to take them right to the vet to be sure.
And I'm so happy Uni will be feeling better soon. Remember, You're the Foodie, not her! Watch the nutritional content of any treats she gets too. Moderation is the key.
(A/D=yum? Ha, spit my tea on that one!
) That may work better! You eat her food instead of you feeding her your food! (JK) Give Uni hugs from us!
