I think the product is of poor quality but high price The only reason Minnie is on it at the moment is that she requires a very low fat diet. I would NEVER normally feed anything with meat and animal derivatives and cereals in , but I have no choice!

Dry mixer biscuits.

Dorothy Farrington

  • VioVet customer since 2021
  • From: Lancashire, United Kingdom

What mixer biscuits are best with this food.

  • VioVet Staff

If you vet has advised this gastrointestinal veterinary diet then it should be the only food fed ideally, otherwise it may not provide it's intended effect. If you wish to mix other food in then you should run this past your vet first.
This is a complete diet that your dog can have as the only food they eat.

Daily feed for West Highland terrier

Bill Querns

  • VioVet customer since 2016
  • From: Hampshire, United Kingdom

Our West Highland Terrier has just recovered from Pancreatitis. His weight is 10kg. and his age is 13 years.
What would be the recommend daily Gastrointestinal, low fat food consumption?

  • VioVet Staff

You should follow the packaging feeding guidelines regarding how much to feed. If your dog is not fully recovered then it is worth asking your vet how much you should be feeding.

Diabetes/ pancreatitis

Richard

My dog has pancreatitis and diabetes mellitus. She is on hills w/d diet which is good for her blood sugar but not for pancreatitis. Can royal canin gastrointestinal low fat canned food be used for a diabetic dog? Which ll help her pancreatitis but not sure about her blood sugar . Thank you

  • VioVet Staff

Whilst this food is great for a dog with pancreatitis, any change in diet can be an issue for a diabetic dog. You can use this diet with your diabetic dog but changing the food will very likely change your dog's insulin requirements. I strongly advise discussing this change with your vet first.

Feeding guide

Pat

My 9 year old CKCS has had acute Pancreatitis and was hospitalised for a week. The vet recommended the Royal Canine gi low fat kibble for her, she was previously fed on Hills senior dog food. She weighs in at 10.05 kg. I would like to know what the feeding guide would be as my intention is to dispense the total daily requirements and then give her a main meal from this and the remainder to be given as a substitute treats for her previous treats of shapes X 1 given at 6am, 7pm and 1 at 10 and Pedigree Chum X 1 dental chews, which were given at 3 pm. This new regime is for life so I want to get it right for her as she seems a bit belly led at the moment

  • VioVet Staff

For a 10kg dog, the recommended daily amount is 200gof the kibbled (dry) diet per day. This is however just a guide and should be increased or decreased by about 50g depending if your dog is lean or overweight. The correct amount to feed is always simply that amount which produces the correct bodyweight. If you are measuring the daily allowance out every day as you describe, it will be very easy to keep your dog in perfect shape. However you cannot start with a feeding guide amount and then stick to it for life. You need to adjust the amount in view of how thin or fat your dog is. In fact most dogs with pancreatitis are overweight, so I suspect that you might do better to start on 150g per day. The only difficulty in all of this is the difference between the correct healthy amount to feed a dog and the amount the owner and dog regard as the correct amount due to appetite and owners wanting to be kind. This means that most people feed too much to their dogs and the dogs are fat. The solution is so simple, yet so difficult. Just feed the amount which keeps your dog to the correct weight. Overweight dogs need less, thin dogs can be offered more.

Pancreatitis

Karen Gibson

  • VioVet customer since 2013
  • From: Dumfries and Galloway, United Kingdom

my dog is currently on the sensitivity control Royal Canin but has now been diagnosed with pancreatitis. Should I stay on the current food or move to this one as it has been recommended he goes on a low fat diet.

  • VioVet Staff

It is usually best to follow the advice of the vet who is familiar with the individual dog involved. Generally it is believed that a low fat diet is better for dogs where there is a concern regarding triggering another episode of pancreatitis. Although this condition is not fully understood, low fat diets are certainly generally believed to help.

Can I add a little of the wet food to her normal dry food

Cook

Can I add some of this wet food to her normal dry food

  • VioVet Staff

It is perfectly OK to add some wet food to a dried diet. Best to add a small amount first and gradually increase the quantity over a few days. Most dogs do better on a mix of the two in fact.

Do I need a prescription to order this food?

Nellie Round

My dog has been diagnosed with diabetes. Are you able to suggest any suitable treats?

The vet has told me to feed her Royal Canin Veterinary Diets Gastro-Intestinal Low Fat Dog Food - tinned

  • VioVet Staff

The best treats for diabetic individuals are based on meat or fish. Carbohydrates should be avoided. Good examples would be Pet Munchies Dog Treats or Thrive ProReward Dog Treats. With a diabetic dog you should try to establish a routine where all foods and treats, as well as periods of exercise and rest, become part of a regular daily routine. Try not to give different amounts on different days, or it is difficult to stabilise the insulin treatment.

My Cat ate some that is for Dogs

Desiree

My Cat ate some of the wet food version for dogs. Is this okay?

  • VioVet Staff

This is completely OK. It would not be a good idea for your cat to eat large amounts of it in the place of normal cat food, but one snack should be fine.

Is this food suitable as an on-going diet?

Peter Hill

  • VioVet customer since 2014
  • From: Dorset, United Kingdom

Our 12yr old Weimaraner probably has gastro enteritis ,according to a blood test. The vet has reccommended your low fat food. If he manages to recover should he remain on this prescription diet? He has lost a lot of weight and looks mostly skin and bone

  • VioVet Staff

This diet can be used as a long-term food. If his digestion is now working well, then if you give him the correct amount of this food, he should do fine. If problems remain then he might need treatment other than just this diet. It does sound concerning that he is "mostly skin and bone", but that would not be a reason to start giving him extra foods or treats. Your vet might have a very good reason to recommend this food. You might trigger other problems if you feed different foods. I should discuss this with your vet and see what he/she says in response to your weight concerns.
