best dry kibble for my mini schnauzer with pancreatitis.

Whatever food you choose..DO NOT EVER FEED THE AMOUNT THAT IS RECOMMENDED ON THE PACKAGE. This is almost always way too much. My Vet even told me that, and I buy it from them. Also...Vet's do not get a commission for selling that food you talked about. They recommend that particular one because it is very bland. I have my dog weighed regulary and we (my Vet's office and me) keep close tabs on her weight, as well as her shape...to check if she is developing a layer over fat. Every dog is different and requires different amounts of fat in their diet....There is no hard fast rule.

HI - I am now feeding my little schnauzer "Nutro Ultra Holistic Superfood." It does not have
Barley which I thought upset her stomach. It has brown rice and only 7.00% fat and 17% Protein.
I also cook chicken or turkey and mix it with brown or white rice. If she acts like she is going to
be sick, I feel her canned Iams low residue or Science Diet I/D canned for a few days. She seems
to be doing a lot better on this diet. Have found a treat by Smoakhouse called chicken chips that
only have 2% min. fat.

Hi to all - Just an update on what I am feeding my mini schnauzer. We now have another mini schnauzer, one year old. I feed them both the same. I am feeding them
Wellness CORE Low fat and California Naturals Rice & Chicken Low Fat. They are doing great and don't seem to have any more problems. Mary Ann I have looked
for the Science Diet T/D's you talked about and can't seem to find them. I have tried all the Vets around here and they do not carry them. Can you order them
anywhere?

Hi, I use Halo dog food for our 3 little dogs. It is all natural, has pieces of fruit and veggies in it and all human grade ingrediants.
Hope this helps.
