| There are varying degrees of renal failure. Some pups live for a long time in renal failure from the first diagnosis. I had a pup live for four years with it.

| What do you feed your dog. I have researched many foods and it is hard to find a low phosphorus food. My little Leo is allergic to chicken. He takes enalpril and salmon oil. His blood pressure is still running on the high side at 153/63. He also has arthritis so he is now using Rimadyl and gabapentin. Although he is 10+ he is back to acting like a puppy. |

I did home cook for one who had pancreatitis as well and the diets were not meeting his needs. I consulted with a vet nutritionist and had the diet formulated. You can get a free home cooked diet at the following website. It is run by a vet nutritionist. You do need your vet's approval, but they will ask for the information and fax a form to your vet so he/she can sign and return. Then, you can pick the foods you want to cook or that your pup will like and the diet will be formulated for him. You do need to purchase the supplement, but you always need to do that with home cooked diets. The jar is around $50 but lasts for about 2 - 3 months. www.balanceit.com
