A poster on this thread indicated that their dog was taking Pancreatin and that it's available at health food stores. I'd like to find a cheaper altnative to the Panacare Plus Power I've been giving my shepherd-mix, and would consider trying Pancreatin. However, I was curious about the dose. My shepherd-mix is about 65 lb and I give her 2 tsp. of the powder with every meal. I'm not sure what that translates to with the Pancreatin pills. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi - I have an EPI Shiloh Shepherd that we have maintained for over 5 years on the enzymes. You can buy a product called Biocase from KVVetsuppy - it costs less than the actual Viocase and is working better for my dog.

Hi,
If your dog requires porcine or bovine enzymes, then contact this person and buy the powder from her. It is far cheaper than a vet or a general nutrition store. Explain to her your situation and she can help. I have always received the product in a timely fashion and it is the best on the market. Start with the 4X powder and try that. The usual dose is 1 tsp a dry measure cup, but you can experiment. If you find you must add a lot, then go to the more concentrated version. Remember, this is an enzyme and there can be problems associated with it, so make sure the dog does not end up eating pure enzyme or having it in its mouth for any length of time so as to prevent bleeding.

Some dogs will do fine on a powder called Prozyme and you can look that up or contact me and I can give you a web site URL. If the dog must have the porcine derivative, my considerable experience is that powder will work much better than pills or tablets. So buying the powder and putting it directly into the food is best, assuming the dog will eat it. Also you want to watch what you feed the dog.
I hope this helps. Good luck.
