 Pancreatitis Scare
We also had a very serious pancreatitis situation with our small one a few weeks ago. She is 4.5 lbs of amazing personality and as a rule her tail never stops, My wife and I are totally convinced that the cause for her Pancreatic attack was the Rabies shot. We took both her and her brother, a giant at 11lbs for their "wellness" check and were both deemed in excellent condition aside from dental work needed for our larger Yorkie. He only needed distemper shot since his rabies shot was 3yr. Our smaller dog was given distemper and we said we were going to wait a week for the rabies shot when we took boy in for his dental work. She was given the shot and 3 days later she was vomiting, had severe diareha, and was in obvious distress. Subsequent blood tests showed her enzyme level at 1875 !!.... over nine times normal !! She spent 3 days at the emergency vet hospital on intravenous and lost over a pound. Our vet denies any cause related to the rabies shot which we now know is crap from further research. She told us she would need a low fat diet the rest of her life and handed us a can of prescription drek which our little one would not eat. We boiled up rice and ground beef and got her eating. We finally found a low fat canned dog food that both dogs love and is beyond top quality |
