I believe that my yorkie might suffer from pancreatitis also. I do not think my vet is even sure if it is just a sensitive stomach or that. Like I said she also might have legg perthes.. again after running to so many vets/specialists.. and top people ie: a specialist at Cornell, they have still not confirmed that.

I am now continuing wellness 1/8 twice daily mixed with unsalted canned string beans. I am ready to steam fresh string beans or boil them, bc I always grew up being told that canned vegetables are not the healthier. It might not be the case, but it is something instilled in my mind. At times I also mix in a little bit of boiled chicken.

Her weight is stable.. certainly not losing and her vomiting (foamy clear bile) has decreased but still every now and then she does do it.. She is nice enough to run to my area rugs vs doing it on my wood floors.

I am originally from New York, Queens.. now we live on Long Island, Hewlett and have been here for about 20 years. How about yourself. I did live in New Jersey for two years, in the Metuchen area. My brother in law grew up there and my husband and I followed my sister and her husband to NJ. That lasted for two years and then we ended up here.

Thanks for your post and please do feel free to PM me whenever you would like to. Have a great evening.
