Pancreatitis is sadly relatively common in dogs. The pancreas is the organ that sits close to the stomach and is responsible for releasing enzymes needed to digest food. Pancreatitis occurs when the pancreas becomes inflamed and this can lead to serious illness. Dogs who are overweight and/or currently eating a diet that’s high in fat may be at a greater risk of developing pancreatitis. At Butternut Box we provide high quality, low fat meals which can help reduce the chances of repeat flares of this painful condition.
Ciara is an integral part of the team here at Butternut and is on hand to answer any concerns you have regarding your pup's health.
Our chicken and turkey dishes all contain less than 5% fat, and as such are classified as low-fat and suitable for dogs with pancreatitis. As our boxes are completely bespoke, you’ll be able to exclude a particular recipe from your tailor-made plan.
Butternut Box use high quality, fresh ingredients from trusted UK farms. Our chicken recipe contains real chicken. Our turkey recipe contains real turkey! There are no mystery meats, or processed animal derivatives. Our recipes contain fibre in the form of sweet potato and lentils - which are are highly digestible leaving less residue in the gut. Omega-3 fatty acids from flaxseed and linseed also help reduce the cycle of inflammation and improve metabolism of very low density lipoproteins (bad fats).
Dogs who are obese or currently eating a diet that’s high in fat may be at a greater risk of developing pancreatitis. That's why we deliver a box of delicious, pre-portioned meals to suit your pup's individual needs.
