Outcome of vet visit

Well Konrad went to the vet today, and now we are truly confused. According to the vet Konrad does not show any symptoms of pancreatitis, rather he shows symptoms of being poor fed.

So at this point we are not entirely sure why Konrad is in such poor condition. it is possible his owner did not give him adequate food, but as there were other dogs on the property who were very well fed this seems unlikely. Also Konrad is such a happy little fella is seems odd that if he was neglected through starvation he would be so confident with us humans.

I am wondering whether perhaps Konrad has some type of digestive/enzyme disorder that prevents him from absorbing the nutrients from his food? Further blood tests will hopefully reveal the problem but for now we are grateful that it seems Konrad does not have pancreatitis. This is great news!
