Yes, this is a great food to give a dog with pancreatitis. It is actually my first choice. I would recommend doing small meals every 4-6 hours and see if your dog can keep that down. If you're feeding the canned food do about 3 tablespoons to start and then slowly increase the amount you are giving him until he is recovered. If you're feeding the dry food do it in half cup increments and then slowly increase the amount you are giving him if he is able to keep it down. I would not recommend adding milk to the diet as this could further irritate the stomach. I hope this helps. Best of luck. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
