Well, Andrew, the one with the rough coat, is a whippet and has had rough hair for his whole life. My other dog, who happens to be his aunt, has a coat as soft as velvet. She's also had dandruff for a while. Andrew got diagnosed with pancreatitis by the vet. The reason we aren't entirely sure if he has it is because his blood test showed higher levels of whatever is made during pancreatitis, but it could be caused by something else or something. I'm sorry, my mom is more aware about the medical stuff than I am, I'm not entirely sure what is going on. He had it before, but he lost his excess weight and it went away completely. It's the kind of pancreatitis that isn't necessarily life threatening. Since he gained his weight back, he's now in the same situation as he was before. They both get the same food and they get: 24/7 access to Natural Balance dry food, morning they get half Natural Balance canned food and half Royal Canin weight loss food with a Nutro food packet on top, and in the evening they get Pro Plan, or a Nutro packet. This only started about a month or less ago. They were originally both getting Pro Plan once a day with 24/7 access to Pro Plan dog food. I'd personally like to feed them Eagle Pack, since they've had the canned food before and loved it, but my mom buys the food and decides what they are going to eat.
