I'm very sorry for you loss. I had a lab that was 3 years old that also suffered from a sudden death. Her pancreas starting producing too many enzymes, she stoppped eating and her liver swelled up. There was nothing they could do for her. I have also wondered if it was her food. Have you changed the food that you are feeding your other dog? Nikki – that is a sad story.

Have you changed the food that you are feeding your other dog?

Last month, both of my dogs started throwing up soon after they were eating Gravy Train pellets and Gravy Train canned beef. I wasn't worried,thoughtit might be something or small creature they ate out in the yard. Well next thing I know, my youngest dog began upchucking a lot. The Momma got sick also. So I decided to change their food to rice and cooked eggs. And it stopped. Later in the week, I decided that I would feed them both from the dried pellets again. The puppy began to act sick again. So took her to the vets and was told that it was her liver acting up. Gave her medications for that and I took her home. Well, the next day she seemed ok. Then after feeding her dinner, she went outside and then acted funny, couldn't walk and looked very sad. I just picked her up from the ground, took her inside, put her on the couch and then she gave a tremendous cry of pain and then stopped breathing. In seconds, in spite of mouth to mouth resussitation, she was dead! When I called the doctor, he said it probably was her heart. WE buried her in our banana pathc that she loved. I am not sure if it was the dog food, but she had taken all the medicine and seemed to be ok and I thought that her so liver problem was ok again. What does anyone think? Maybe it was the dog food?
