Yes, Pancreatitis can be deadly, especially to a small dog. It is most often brought on by the dog eating something fatty but can be brought on by other factors. Vets often have an increase of cases during holidays when people feed more scraps to their pets than usual.
Don't wait if your dog has been vomiting or having diarrhea. A simple blood test can diagnose the problem. If not treated promptly a dog can go down hill fast. |
