Pancreatitis in Dogs

4 The Love Of Animals

Just as our dog Baby was fully recovered from her patella surgery, she got very sick this week. She was lethargic, wouldn’t eat, and had thrown up several times. The veterinarian diagnosed her with Pancreatitis. The first day at the vet she was given an injection of fluids, and several medications for her to take. Sadly she has even had small seizures due to the pain of the illness and we had her back at the vet’s office again today.
