Glenna, I am very sorry for your loss. My last yorkie had a case of acute pancreatitis when he was 12. He was not overweight. I think it was a food change that caused the initial pancreatitis. He did survive - it was a long haul - but the pancreatitis became chronic and he had occasional flare ups for the rest of his life. His numbers never completely normalized and his cpl hovered around 300-400 even when he was feeling well. We lost him at 16 but it was not related to his pancreatitis. My little guy was lucky to beat it, but not all do. You did all you could for him and were not to blame. It just happens sometimes. RIP sweet Yogi. And Glenna I hope you find some peace. Sometimes the why is just not there.
