How To Treat Pancreatitis In Dogs At Home

[@pamelasowards9502]

It would be so nice if veterinarian's would even try to help a person who can't afford all the vet bills to have another option? I have NEVER found one who cares enough that they are going to sacrifice their pocketbook So sad! Dr Jones is a hero! I wish there were more like you! God bless you 🙏

[@sisterspooky]

@Pamel Sowards: Yeah, I have a sick dog right now and the jerk didn’t want to do anything because I didn’t have the money for that insanely high bill, so he tells me I can put him down. I am NOT putting my dog down when he can be treated and cured. That jerk is horrible. I am going to call around tomorrow and see if someone will let me get the fluids and do it that way. Right now the only thing I had to force out of that useless vet was that I can give him pedialyte (4 cups per day). SMH Some of these jerks are just in it for the money. I am so thankful this guy posted this video. I wish he was in my area!!! I’d take my dog to him in a heartbeat

[@ginamussic4964]

@@sisterspooky I hate when vets will not even give you advice. I understand making a profit, but there should also be a love of animals. There are some good vets here in Mississippi.

[@sisterspooky]

@@ginamussic4964 - I wholeheartedly agree!!!!!! Like you, I completely understand they need to make a living. I don’t begrudge them for that, but when a situation is dire, I believe they should have compassion for the animal and try to do (even a minimal amount of effort) and simply tell the person what they can do to help the situation. They don’t… it’s all about the $$$$$. Most people in 2023 just suck!!! So happy to have encountered a like-minded individual like you! Take care of yourself. All the best! 😊

Just spent $2,050 on recovering my 16 year old cat from pancreatitis. All they did was keep him overnight once, give IV fluids, ultrasound, blood panel and urinalysis. Now I'm giving him Ceneria, Gabapentin and Amoxicillin (he also has a UTI). He is doing okay eating and I hope to get a few more years with him. But, emergency vet care now is highway robbery. I don't get it, honestly.

[@freespiritwithnature4384]

I hear you . You can actually ask for Sub Q fluids and give kitty fluids at home . My cat was in kidney failure at 14 ,and Dr Andrew Jones recommended Grain Free High protein/ 83% + moisture. I bought collidial silver, (pepsid, really helped ) she had a lump in her urethra area ,and I filled a Rubbermaid container and let it go warm and added 1 cup of ACVINEGAR. I put her in tub after she went to bathroom, and I massaged the area. Leaving the b room door open as I put bin in tub . I began to feel this sand empty into my hand and the lump was gone . She began to get sick ,and I asked Dr Jones,he has a video on when you know it’s time . She slept with me every night. That day I knew. However she was 21 + 6 months. She lived an excellent quality of life because of this Dr right here . She died in my arms July 23 rd at 10:30 am . It was really hard ,but she was due to be out down at 3 on that day. So trust your gut. My light that’s never worked our recessed lights blinking non stop for 2 months. So now because of this Dr and the time I had , I can honestly say regardless of how hard her death was to me ,it was an honour and a privilege to be her momma. ❤️ I’m in Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 and he’s saved me thousands of dollars. I hope your kitty is ok. Epakitin orange lid oral powder works amazing for kidneys,but once open keep it in fridge ok . Worth every single penny. I’ve recently heard that fishmox on Amazon is exactly the same thing as amoxicillin. Many people take it . Vets are extremely outrageous, I found my baby because someone threw her out on the side of the road with her siblings. She was the only survivor. At 2 am getting hay , what are the chances? ❤️ Michele.

[@pamelasowards9502]

@@freespiritwithnature4384 i am so sorry for your cat. I bought a book on Amazon called wet noses at the pearly gates. To read when the time comes for my Furbaby/ dog of 13 years and 4 months, he's been dealing with heart problems since 8 years and 15 months ago he tore his back knee, which I was not putting him under a 3 hour anesthesia for surgery, plus I didn't have over $5000 The veterinarian had him on a strong anti inflammatory drug and he had already had a sensitive stomach so this caused him bloody diarrhea and vomiting blood. I found a new veterinarian who immediately took him off it but had to keep him overnight and give fluids so I have had him on pepcid and cerenia plus a slurry for over a year. And I have easily spent $10,000. 3000 since Christmas. Now he just got diagnosed with beginning stages of Kidney disease. The veterinarian of course put him on the Kibble for Kidney disease and canned food, which he won't eat anyway I always fed my baby human grade food and cooked chicken also. Now I had been cooking him Dr Jones diet for digestive issues but tweeking it with less protein because that's what all vets say. Until I started researching it. I found they need protein still. Where you say Dr Jones had yours on grainfree and 83% protein what exactly did you mean by that? Abd also tge Epakitin is that for just cats or also for dogs. My veterinarian now I do like but they all act like we have a non ending supply of money, which I can't do anymore big vet bills. She said she didn't think it would be Kidney disease that would take his life anyway. This is so hard.😪 It's why I spend everything I have to comfort him. If you have time to answer my questions I would appreciate it. Thank you.

Emergency vets want the big bucks. They aren’t in it to help pets in the all day grind of a regular practice. When I go to the emergency vet I can always hear them in the next room quoting a starting price of 2000.00. I always tell them I don’t have it. I say start with the most essential item first. The last time they started with a quote of 1500 and when we left I paid 700.00. Just tell them, you don’t have it, start with most essential and see if we can save the pet for less.

My little toy fox terrier will be 17 in 2 days. She just got home after 3 days hospitalization with a diagnosis of Chronic Kidney Disease, CKD, stage 3 they’re guessing at and Hemorrhagic Diarrhea. While in hospital is when they seen blood and possible partial intestines in her stool. That didn’t happen at home, her diarrhea was just watery, almost clear so we got her there just in time. I’m praying Tinker makes it to her birthday 8/17/04 and much longer. The ER Vet bill came to $3300.00 and it’s not over bc of follow up bloodwork and tests.

thank you very much for the video. i have been a fat nazi for my dogs' diet and my obsession seems working (touch wood!). Many dogs in Seoul seem to have pancreatitis though the dogs are on low fat and low protein diet with so called "prescribed" kibbles. I can see the benefit of low fat diet but does it have to be low protein as well? Secondly for some reason hydrolysed protein (mainly plant based) in kibbles seems so popular here. Do they really beneficial to dogs?

Hi, Thanks for sharing. I suggest moderate fat, but higher protein, and less kibble. The hydrolyzed protein is for food allergies, and does seem to help

Been trying to figure out what my dog has for months now. Xrays showed enlarged liver and inflammation in lungs. They tested urine and found ecoli. So then they gave antibiotics and anti inflammatory. I saw a difference right after the anti inflammatory but then he pooped black tar for a couple days. They said maybe ulcer. Quit those meds and continued a different antibiotic. He still wasn’t eating so we tested urine and it said it was clear. stopped antibiotics. I started probiotics packet and writhin a couple days he started eating regular food and bowl movements were good for a couple days. Stopped probiotics and everything went back to normal. No appetite and runny poop. Xrays showed enlarged liver and inflammation in lungs. Also took blood tests. Vet gave a cortisone shot and antibiotic shot and that night started eating and was great for a couple weeks. Also was on prednisone. Then yesterday bam! All the way back to before. Now they are treating him for possible pancreatitis. Yesterday he didn’t eat and was weak and threw up yellow vomit after drinking a small amount of water. Gave him cerenia and famotidine shots last night. He’s drinking now good but still not eating. They want me to feed him id hills. He has abdominal pain and the symptoms of pancreatitis. I gave him a small burger patty on the 14th and on the 18th do you think that coulda triggered him now on the 25th? I’m at a loss, he’s in pain and I don’t know what to do. If anything of this is normal or not. Prior to this last episode he lost a lot of weight and I didn’t think he would make it. Then I had hope and now all the signs are back

Hello Dr Jones and thank you for your video. I have a Golden Doodle, she is 3 years old. She has always had a problem of being sick bile, maybe once a week or once every two weeks. 10 days ago this turned into a really bad vomiting episode (only first thing in the morning) Following day she was sick blood. I took her straight to vet they gave her anti acid and blood tests and anti sickness. Two days later vomiting blood again, went back and he suspected pancreatitis so took a special blood test. The next day she was worse than ever and was sick just blood about 5 times. She went in for a general anaesthetic, scans and xrays but still nothing to conclude what it was. She has stopped being sick for the last two days, yesterday I had a call to say the pancreas test showed her levels were off the scale and pancreatitis was the cause. She is on a bland low fat diet but is not interested in eating, especially in the mornings, she dont eat until mid afternoon. Is there anything you can suggest to try and get her to take food earlier? Thank you, Sonia x

He said she was at 400 something which is very abnormal from the 200 level. They put the IV Fluid in her just like you did, but also provided a bunch of medications as well as high caloric, low fat diet food. He said it was possible she's been eating table scraps which caused that issue and to stop it immediately. I am guilty of this and never will give her human food ever again.

Here’s some advice if your dog is experiencing pancreatitis! DO NOT give your dog any food or water for at least 12-24 hrs! When you do introduce food, try switching to a raw diet, I recommend Primal freeze dried or frozen food. Before feeding add Herbsmiths Microflora supplement, it has probiotics, prebiotics, digestive enzymes, and herbs that helps your dog absorb food the way it should! Try that and stick with it and see how things go. I say this because this is what worked for me and after switching to raw, my dog has never been more healthy! I was told she had only two weeks to live so I was desperate, looking for any way that would help her get better and live longer. After doing a ton if research no thanks to the vet, I made the switch with nothing to lose and luckily had everything to gain! I strongly suggest you do your research and try to make the switch to raw, you won’t regret it!

Seems to poop more frequently and with urgency. Today it is yellow in color and that makes me think pancreatitis. He isn't vomiting and will still eat, but doesn't finish it all as he usually does. He's a low key dog, but seems very lethargic as well. Just wondering if I should fast him for 24 to rest the pancreas, but does that mean no insulin shots which he usually gets every 12 hours after food?

P.S. Dr. Jones,, I just wrote to you about my 2 yr. old Dobie.... I also used fresh ground flaxseed.

[@FknNefFy]

I have a question and I never heard of this before but I just recently ordered calcium bentonite I don’t know if you’re familiar with it or not but it’s a food safe version just 100% calcium bentonite (I got it originally for a facemask and then realize all the benefits of it and how it’s used for detox in humans and I also heard that it is safe on animals as well (as long as you don’t use too much because I can have a laxative effect) So I was thinking I usually give her a quarter Pepcid which I did today along with the frankincense but what do you think about using calcium been tonight because in humans it’s used for so many things including an antacid, And a natural detox....... it is also an ingredient in a lot of dog foods. So knowing all that I thought it should be fine but wanted to check with you what you would say and maybe that could be a video if you think it’s a good idea ! I’m also not exactly sure what to do and it breaks my heart when she is starving but I will do whatever is best as far as not feeding her however we thought that possibly she got acid indigestion when she went to many hours without eating so we have been feeding her smaller meals throughout the day equivalent to the same amount of food she was eating before and that seems to work good I’m scared if I don’t feed her like you’re saying that she will get acid reflux and start throwing up bile and if I do feed her I’m afraid that’s going to be bad for her gal bladder. 😟 I actually to be honest already gave her a tiny bit less than a teaspoon probably a third of a teaspoon of the calcium then tonight mixed with a couple spoonfuls of organic low sodium chicken bone broth. I thought that should possibly help her belly and since it was such a small amount hopefully not upset her gallbladder and it was just liquid since the powder desolved it... And also I understand if you don’t respond right away probably have a lot of stuff going on but that would be good to know I just wanted to say thank you as well for all your videos they are really insightful I like the way you explain things and I like the way that you are with the animals and how you consider alternative things as well. You helped us a lot today I also have been giving her acupressure because I learned that last time she had pancreatitis from you is there a certain spot to push for pancreatitis? I’ve been doing the one on her heel mostly almost every day actually and it seems to have worked for me as well so you can put that in your evidence bag ☝🏻🧐

There are many types of clays people use today for healing purposes but Calcium Bentonite Clay is known to be both safe and effective for dogs and does not have consumption restrictions compared to other clays

[@josannseyforth248]

Hello Dr. Jones, my 2 yr. old Dobie was diagnosed with pancreatitis . They gave anti nausea meds for 4 days and famotidine for 7 days. The gave me Hills I’d canned food as well. She started to respond and be herself after 2 days,,,, but I was concerned on what to feed her. I am presently watching your videos and preparing a list to feed her a low fat diet.. currently she is fed twice a day ... 3/4 cup of a low fat kibble , brn rice , kale, butternut squash or canned pumpkin with this I’d canned food. I’m putting together a better recipe with real chicken , brn rice , veggies , and supplements ....trying to find your supplements . Can I at times use chicken liver or beef liver or fish ? Please let me know if I’m doing this correctly . Thanks

Would a vet clinic really give you a bag of lactated ringers?

[@JentriQuinn]

Thank you for this! Just found out my 16 yr old pug’s pancreatitis levels are at 350. Have been making his dog food at home since finding out out about his high liver - kidney enzyme levels (above 2k) this past week. Is it ok to keep making his food at home once he recovers or is a prescription dog food better in your opinion? I did see your other video about you giving kibble and home cooked food 2x week. Do you have any diet recommendations for me moving forward? I don’t mind cooking every week just wanna make sure it’s balanced enough. Thank you again for all you do!

[@VeterinarySecrets]

Hi there, I'm glad to hear that you find the information I share helpful and valuable, yes better to make it balance till he recovers.

My 9month old toy poodle has been drinking and urinating a lot, sometimes she didnt poop/urinate. Shes also been doing the prayer position thing that also an indicator of pancreatitis, but she only vomited once. Im confused could it be something else? Such as cushing or kidney? Liver?

This will help when I get my dog back from the vet, hopefully today. 3rd day he's been there. If they let him go home today, my total bill should be under $2k. He's 14 and very lucky I'm in a point in my life that I could afford to to go to the vet. At 14, it's hard, I don't want him living in pain but he was fine ('ish, his hearing is going, he has cataracts, tracheal collapse, he's old). He was attacked 2nd time this year by a pit bull, who didn't want to kill him but just didn't want to stop chomping on the back of his neck. It was horrible, I'm still traumatized. I read injury, trauma and shock could affect/trigger pancreatitis too, maybe I'm just reaching. Anyhow I'm glad I took him in, he stopped eating for over a week. I was trying to get him to eat anything, chicken, steak, hamburger, etc. I was going thru the fridge, trying everything to see if he eat. The last thing he ate was a piece of bologna (I was desperate). Then he stopped completely, and I took him in. I'm waiting to hear from the vet's office today, hopefully I get to take him home.

[@karenbearden6198]

Hi, just wanted to say how much I hope all is well. What you both have been through is really tough, I feel for you.

[@lordtigranes9877]

I cured my pomeranians pancreatic issue with 3 table spoons plain yogurt, 1/2 teaspoon organic honey, 3fresh blackberries 4fresh raspberries 6fresh blueberries, and 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder. Mixed n mash, I had to force feed him. He wasn't eating because of the belly pain. Btw he was not eating, kinda pulled into the corner for 2 days. I had enough n called the vet she said it'll be 3-6k for treatment. So I did my research overnight n wala! After giving him this concoction he was up n running around after only 20min my eyes couldn't believe what I was seeing. I Also give this mix if I take my dogs outdoors n they drink river or pond water this will keep them protected, from intestinal infections and parasites. I imagine this will work for humans also? Cucumber is another good snack for dogs it's Anti-inflammatory. For killing worms n infestations I give my dogs 4 tablespoons plain yogurt 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley. Mix n mash n no infestation or intastional problems. Do it 1every 10 days or at least once a month. 😎 I feed the yogurt, garlic, parsley mix to my puppies n I dont have to deal with worms n my puppies are so healthy.

[@cr0sscheck]

thank you!!!!! I will definitely get those ingredients. She already resorted to laying upstairs all by herself in the closest. Week 3 doing that. I have been trying to feed her plain yogurt and natural peanut butter dog treats but she dont eat them. I freeze them in my bone molds, just no appetite.

My dog got into a box of Chocolate several years ago and had a severe reaction to it. The Vet at the Animal ER diagnosed my dog with Pancreatitis and prescribed him the Gastrointestinal Low Fat dry formula by Royal Canine...three thousand dollars later. Thank God I had a health insurance plan on my dog at that time. He has been on the same dry dog food formula since he was diagnosed with Pancreatitis and has yet to have another episode. I’m wondering if my dog truly has Pancreatitis or if he just had a bad reaction to Chocolate. He’s a tiny 5lb Shihpoo who rarely gets sick. However he can be pretty sensitive to various dog treats which end up in mild vomiting from time to time. He’s 9 years old and people still mistake him for a puppy. He’s just so stinking little and cute lol

[@VeterinarySecrets]

It may just have been acute pancreatitis secondary to the chocolate.

My dog is being treated for pancreatitis and was released today for me to continue his meds and syringe feeding. He still vomiting about 2 1/2 hrs after eating but meds are also given. Lots of meds.

Just needing your advice before I gave any...I took my chihuahua to the vet yesterday he said no water for 2 hours after the nausea shot she was given...after 2 hrs start with small amounts if she keeps it down work on more small amounts.... She has been keeping it all down which im guessing is a good sign but she still hasnt eaten... What should I try next?

Yes it is safe to give the Activated Charcoal. Ask your vet about using an antacid ( ie Pepcid)

Hi, Dr. Jones, my yorkie has pancreatitis and kidney disease. She's had it for 2 years. Not to many flare-ups though. But I have to feed 4 small meals per day and give her omeprazole once at night after dinner. Famotidine doesn't work for my girl. Why does my girl need an anacid and is omeprazole ok to give? I home cook and have mostly cooked most of her life. Not sure why she got Pancreatitis. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

[@VeterinarySecrets]

This comes from Petplace: Overview of Omeprazole (Prilosec®) for Dogs and Cats Omeprazole, commonly known by the brand name Prilosec®, is used in the treatment and prevention of stomach (gastric) and intestinal ulcers in dogs and cats.The newest drugs used in the treatment of ulcers and heartburn (acid reflux from the stomach) belong to a class of drugs called proton pump inhibitors. Omeprazole is such a drug and has been used for the treatment and prevention of stomach ulcers.Omeprazole inhibits the movement of hydrogen ions - a constituent of hydrochloric stomach acid. Through this effect, omeprazole blocks acid secretion in the stomach. This creates a more favorable stomach pH to allow ulcers to heal.The duration of effect for omeprazole is 24 hours.Omeprazole is a prescription drug and can only be obtained from a veterinarian or by prescription from a veterinarian.This drug is not approved for use in animals by the Food and Drug Administration but it is prescribed legally by veterinarians as an extra-label drug.

[@joannesmith9761]

We were out of town with our former shihtzu a few years ago when she had a recurrent attack of pancreatitis. The vet where we were tested her for pancreatitis but also encouraged us to do the subq treatments at home--sold us the subq bag with solution and had a vet tech show us how to do the procedure. Some vet offices are willing to and actually encourage at-home subq care. Pancreatitis is a wicked disease and can be fatal. Low-fat, high quality diet is essential. WIthholding water and food for 24 hours during an acute pancreatitis attack seems crucial to rest the pancreas and encourage reversal of symptoms. Our dog took Denamarin as well as milk-thistle for several years to keep her attacks of pancreatitis to a minimum.

[@nowayjose6592]

Almost certainly carbohydrate related. Wild canines consume practically zero carbs. We know from human nutrition that when you consume fats with carbs, the body will use glucose from carbs first, leaving the fats to circulate in the blood or be stored (often leading to fatty liver). Eliminating carbs will allow the body to burn fats for energy so they don't accumulate. Commercial dog kibble can contain 40% or more carbohydrates. This leads to chronic high insulin levels, insulin resistence, diabetes, and overworked pancreas. Eliminate carbs and vast majority of pancreatitis cases will be resolved. Low fat diets only hide the real problem until it becomes diabetes; shortening life span and leading to high vet & medication bills (and a miserable family member)!

Dr. Jones and fellow pet lovers! I have a predominately looking cocker spaniel 2 1/2 y o male and I live in Acapulco MX w my hispanic husband.I am finding it hard to navigate how to find a holistic vet and more than likely if I did my husband would find the price to high and wouldn't return. My husband is part of the problem. He was diagnosed ultimately with canine hepatitis. First let me explain that we either have country vets or city vets. We have gone to both. The country vets use their skills to identify what they know exist here. The city vets use their labs. We did do simple blood work and it showed everything in normal range. The much needed diagnostic test was like $55 USD or $1000 MXP which my husband didn't want to pay for. I believe this problem started in March after my female dogs last heat. She wants nothing to do with him and gets quite aggressive when he pesters her. She is a mix of maybe husky/pit bull. She has blue eyes and short hair. He left all his food for her to eat, which, the country Dr said, it could have caused his deterioration which has led to his current problem. Now after many visits to vets and force feeding of medication and supplements he has gone into his quiet space. He no longer wants to get too close to us, can you blame him? He is drinking water and I give him a little bit of honey in the morning. He seems very content and in no pain. He will chase after squirrels. Any thoughts? Thank you very much. I also like that I can put your words in Spanish for what its worth.
