I think you need to talk to your vet...if premade raw is ok for a dog w/pancreatitis...I don't think so bc it is high in fat. How that works is that the dog uses the fat for energy & burns it off, but a dog prone to pancreatitis doesn't have a pancreas that functions normally, but reacts/inflames when a diet is too high in fat.

My Princess recently got sick again w/colitis & she also needs to be on a low fat diet. I was giving her premade raw for 1 meal...I don't think it was ok for her. The vet tested her for pancreatitis bc if I'm not careful, her colitis can escalate into pancreatitis. No more premade raw or canned food for her, they're too high in fat. She was doing great for a few weeks (small firm poopies) but I gave her canned food for her other meal mixed w/kibble & it triggered the attack. I think it was the accumulation of the fats, she just couldn't handle it.
