The r/x must digest very easily and quickly and I was told to feed her a little bit at a time and frequently. I am wondering if Avoderm is really okay to keep giving her or if it is too fatty or has too much protien. I think it says 26% protien and 16% fat. Is that too much? These little ones are so VERY sensitive to what is going on around them. We are going on a road trip with her over Labor Day and I am terrified that this will happen again. Seems like even the slightest change in routine upsets her little system and Pancreatitis can be fatal, sometimes very quickly. Me o My. If you are doing any projects around the house, PLEASE watch your loved ones closely! It just didn't seem to take very long and she was extremely sick... |
I have never personally delt with Pancreatitis before but 16% fat seems way to high to me for a pancreatic dog. Especially if 16% is in the guareeteed anylasis.. that is usually just listed as min. You need to know the max.
If it was me, I would be keeping her on her RX food for now.. and talk with your vet about other options.
