Elisa Ramos Webboard User Reg: 11-15-2002 Posts: 7 Loc: Offline	Hello, I had a Doberman suddenly die of pancreantitis from eating grass. He didn't seem to over eat grass but obviously he did. He died one week after getting sick from the grass. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem or even heard of it? What's it from? Diet, stomach sensitivity, genentics, ect.? Any info would be great, I'm stumped as well as heartbroken.. Thanks! Got Dobes?

The vet just did a test for EPI (can't remember the name) and Auster is low normal. "Dog breeding must always be done by a dog lover, it can not be a profession." -Max v Stephanitz

Elisa Ramos Webboard User Reg: 11-15-2002 Posts: 7 Loc: Offline	My Doberman turned 3 years old on July 18th 2001 and died on August 12th 2001. So he just turned 3 when he got sick and died. He went from an active, big boy to a very weak and sick boy. He went from a lean 90lbs to 70lbs in a little over a week. We visited the vet everyday for a week when he finally lost the battle. It was very sad and devastating for me. I hope everybody doesn't believe that "eating grass is good for dogs" because I learned really quickly how fast you can lose your best friend to it. Best wishes to all! Got Dobes?
