my dog is not overweight, he is actually losing more weight, never lost his appetite, he has a ravenous appetite. he inhales his food. he has acid reflux that slowly got worse over time. rushed him into the vet after he threw up about 10 times. he is on carafate and pepcid, vet said he could go back to normal eating in 5 days. he did the snap test for pancreatitis. said it was positive, he said give him chicken and potatoes or squash for 5 days then go back to his normal diet. i think i need to go back to my holistic vet, theres much more feedback for treatment and options, i cant see the bland diet having enough nutrional value without the vitamins. seeing the pancreas needs certain minerals etc. to heal. are there any other gi issues that could make the test positive for pancreatitis?
