Some dogs are more prone to this issue than others but I think smaller dogs have a bigger problem with pancreatitis. They can't tolerate what a human would consider a small amount of a rich food. Hope your girl is doing better.

My mother's dog had a severe attack of pancreatitis after eating some chicken skin. He did get back to his regular diet after a month or so though. We sometimes do not realize that there is a huge difference in the way dog's process food than humans do and our little dogs find it out the quickest. I hope your little girl had a good night at the vet's. I would have been asking them to let me stay with Gracie! But I'm a "bit" obsessive about her. Certainly can understand how you felt. Hope to hear she is home soon.
