Re: Phoebe, Chronic Pancreatitis and Voracious/Starving

Thank you all for your kind words for me and about my little Phoebe. I’m profoundly grateful for every suggestion and bit of advice you shared with me. Some did help then. And it all helps now. I didn’t mean to disappear again, but as too many people all over the world can imagine (unfortunately fro...

Re: Phoebe, Chronic Pancreatitis and Voracious/Starving

Hello Olesia, I want to thank you, Jill, and others whose names escape me for your generosity, as you all tried to help me with Phoebe's chronic pancreatitis. On 6/16/21 Phoebe died peacefully in my lap, with the help of an amazing visiting vet and vet tech, in Phoebe's backyard, on a beautiful late...

Re: Phoebe, Chronic Pancreatitis and Voracious/Starving

Maybe the antihistamine would work?!

I love the pancake idea. I can picture it. I may have to try that!

Re: Phoebe, Chronic Pancreatitis and Voracious/Starving

Thanks Jill. Phoebe was diagnosed in Jan. 2021 with hypothyroidism. She takes Thyroxine (though I notice her tail hair is falling out again). I have not tried an antihistamine with her. Would you suggest children’s Benadryl (no xylitol)? Would I give the same dose as if she was stung by a bee, for e...

Re: Phoebe, Chronic Pancreatitis and Voracious/Starving

In retrospect I should have simultaneously had Phoebe tested for food sensitivities and have done the food trials I did. That was a mistake on my part & I’ll have to live with that regret. I feel terrible about not being able to find a comprehensive solution for her. A few things have improved h...

Re: Phoebe, Chronic Pancreatitis and Voracious/Starving

You might have said but has she had a food allergy test done? I don't get it, why she can't with out it causing this issue. I will think more on it. Jill I suspended TotalZymes as of today. Clearly they work for lots of dogs but there must be something in them Phoebe can’t tolerate. Last night was ...

Re: Phoebe, Chronic Pancreatitis and Voracious/Starving

You might want to check this out with your vet, but after Kolby had a horrific experience with bloat, we put him on a daily dose of Gas-X (yes, the one for humans) after his evening meal. Actually, our vet said we could give it to him after each meal, but for him the evening meal was sufficient. It...
