My schnauzer is hyperlipidic and prone to pancreatitis...she is on a very lean raw diet but I have found a couple of things for her to chew. The pork hide seems to be ok for her it has a 3% fat min...but no maximum so I would try it cautiously...I've also used the Himalayan dog Chew which has a fat content of .9%...or raw turkey neck (which are fairly lean) bones. (now mind you, my schnauzer is 14lbs...so if you have a tiny Yorkie the turkey neck might be a bit big...I watch my 5lb Yorkie like a hawk when I give her a turkey neck, and was actually thinking that chicken necks would be safer for her because of their size..)
Good luck...it is definitely a new way of life when living with a dog with dietary restrictions! |
