We have our German Sheppard on this med to replace the enzymes that her pancreus is not producing. we almost lost here because we did not know what was happening. She started to lose weight, at first we thought it was because she was more active since we moved into a house with large backyard and lots of squirles to chase. nearly caught some too.
She actually was starting to waste away. it happened over just a couple of weeks. She never showed signs of having any issues because it did not start until she was 4 yrs old. Apparenlty, this is quite common in German Sheppards.
She is great now and she will probably never be over weight because of this issue. Its so expensive though. She is so worth it.

Pros: saved my dogs life

Cons: expensive
