Hi everyone,

Thanks for all of your posts! I had never heard of pancreatitis before Bruiser got it so all of your posts have been so helpful!

I brought Bruiser home yesterday afternoon. He is finished with his fasting and I am starting his new low fat bland diet. He kept his food down last night and I fed him a very small amount this morning before I left for work. I'll check on him at lunch, I hated even leaving him today. He was so peppy last night and wanted to play, it was nice to see the old Bruiser. He went poo poo this morning too, that was such a relief that it was normal.

His blood test was still high, levels are supposed to be 200-1800 and his is 3000, but started at 5500. So he goes back in Saturday for another blood test. Please say alittle prayer for him.

Thanks again for all of your replies and support. My sympathy goes out to all those who lost their yorkie to this condition. You are so brave to go on and tell people about pancreatitis and how important it is to not feed them table scraps of any kind!!!
