I am looking for newer options in treating a dog with inflamed pancreas. My current dog is an 8-year-old English Setter with high energy and high metabolism. She stopped eating her kibble, and after trying various home-cooked meals, she began vomiting. The vet diagnosed her with pancreatitis and prescribed medication. However, she refuses to eat the prescription food and has lost significant weight. I am concerned about her weight loss and looking for guidance on a diet that can help her maintain or gain weight without exacerbating her pancreatitis. Additionally, I want to understand if there are any studies supporting a diet with normal fat content for pancreatitis and if pancreatitis is common in senior dogs. What can I discuss with my vet to improve our progress?
