It does eliminate the corn and rice, but it adds potato, pea, bison, sweet potato. That may not be a bad thing, but we don't know everything that can set the pancreas off.

A couple of us seem to have had some trouble with white potato in our pancreatitis pups. So there is a non fatty ingredient that could present a problem for a few dogs. I'm not so sure sweet potato is always the first choice right after an acute episode. Would be very good questions for a veterinary nutritionist.

So if your vet thinks there are some problem ingredients in the newer foods, that may be part of his reasoning to try and point you in another direction.
