Pancreatitus... son's dog..please help!

[Sher.Fla]

I want to thank everyone for all your replies and help with this. I REALLY appreciate it! .... I haven't heard this week how the dog is doing, but on Mon. he was cautiously optimistic because her stools were more solid. I will email him tonight or tomorrow and see what is going on lately... again, thank you all so much for your help....

I hope everything is alright. Just remember, it's okay to tell your vet no. They receive hardly any nutritional training in vet school, and what they do receive is from companies like Hills >.> So your vets... unless they have a certification in it, do not know much about nutrition. It's just like hooman doctors... we have nutritionists and so do dogs. If the pancreatitis still persists, I would look into finding an animal nutritionist to speak to.

Where do you find an 'animal nutritionist'??

Call a local vet school, they can probably refer you to a good nutritionist!

Let me see what I can find out for you...
