Min-Pin will not eat bland diet, has pancriatitus
Question: My min-pin is home for the weekend after two weeks at the vet for pancriatitus. Take her back twice a day for her meds. But she will not eat the bland diet they told me I have to give her. She will eat maybe a tablespoon a day. So far I have tried turkey, chicken, baked potatoe, pasta and rice. . She will only eat a fews bites a day. Any ideas of something else I could try. No oils and no seasonings. Answer: The reason she's not eating really depends on the type and severity of the pancreatitis she has. If it's a mild form, you might try human baby food - turkey or chicken. This is very easy to digest and most dogs cannot resist it. Answer: It was a bad attack. Maybe can try the baby food. I'll check when I take her back for pm meds. Answer: OH the poor thing! Pancreatitis is awful and can be triggered by any fatty food. It's a hit/miss situation with what they'll eat afterwards but they will eat, trust me. Maybe try the babyfood, it sure sounds like a great idea to me. How about the water intake what's that like? Answer: If the attack was bad, she may be nauseated and painful and not feel like eating. Maybe the vet can offer some help. Hope she gets better soon! Answer: She is still not eating much. likes instant oatmeal, so we are still trying!!!! Answer: Copyright © 2007 - 2008 www.tendlife.com
