This thread dicussed Fat & calories in food and different compostions ie higher fat and protein normally means less carbs in the food  .

From your thread we thought possible pancrettits now this is dealt normally with low fat  Tellers food isnt low fat it is about normal for Uk dog food (i cant beleive you imported it ) the Uk diets for pancretits are usually lower fat 10 % and below therfore this would infer maybe there is more carbs in the food and maybe more calories .

How is Teller doing ???? If the food is suiting him i would stick with it its what is right for your dog.

Hi Maddie Ann,

Teller poops where good, but since a week the are more lose. Why, we don't know, but we hope it will go better in a few days.

And it is right, we get the food from England. We have looked in the netherlands for good food and a faire price, but we could not find. All the food is with grain, BHA, a lot of fibre etc. When we oder more bags the cost are reasenable.

Teller has gaining weight verry slowy with almost 1 kg in 2 months. But he is stil verry skinny. We will be pleased if he looks thicker, so you don't see any ribs.

Thanks for your answer.
