| Anyone use commercial treats for dogs prone to pancreatitis? My pup had 2nd bout of pancreatitis last May...her testing number was 887. Within a month she was 39 and now 5 months later she's at 30. I've been making her a food mix...boiled chicken breast slices that I freeze and then heat up each meal on a George Forman grill. I also use one very thin lean top round cutlet that I slice into 4 small piece and grill on a day that I use as topper. I pat it dry. I slice it into teeny pieces and put on the chicken. I add a side dish of RC Low Fat stinky food. She eats off and on different combos , nothing or all of it. She has access to Hills Dry Low Fat at all time- she sometimes likes a little crunch-lol! I like that because I know she is getting vitamins- along with the RC which isn't always eaten. I've made fat free Turkey meatballs to hide one of her many pills in. I crush the the pills that can be crushed and add flaxseed to Gerber Beef baby food mush- less than a teaspoon. I've boil extemely think low fat round steak. I cut it into slices and dehydrate and then cut it into very small pieces and put in the freezer and give two little ones a day. I'd like to find a commercial treat biscuit or something that is extremely low fat for my pup. Anyone know a brand? |

| If the food your making her is more then 10% of her diet then you need to look at a consult with a vet nutritionist that can give you a more balanced recipe. Just a few bites of dog food isn’t going to get her the stuff she needs.

| She's on a vet approved diet. She is under vet care- she's a picky Yorkie. She doesn't eat much, with both the dry Vet diet Hills and the RC Vet diet wet, with fresh meat toppers, she gets what she needs- according to my vet. I over shared which changed the focus of the reply - so, I still need low fat treat suggestions. |

| Could you make treats out of the Royal Canin or Science Diet RX wet food? https://www.doghealth.com/care/tips-...s-for-your-dog
