Pancreatitis usually is accompanied by pain. My dog Barney has had two life-threatening bouts of it. The first one was when he was about 5 and this one happened a few months ago (almost 5 years later). Both times followed consumption of Wellness chicken and sweet potato (purple can) which is higher in fat (22.72%).

Since he is now considered "prone" to it, he is on a low fat diet - 3% fat for several months - and then it will be raised to about 6% fat. We home cook for him and he is doing great.

Keep us posted!
