Weight Management

Is your pet overweight? We know that a healthy body weight is essential for the health and well-being of your cat or dog. An overweight or obese pet is at a higher risk of developing serious health issues, such as heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, and certain types of cancer.

Our team of animal nutritionists and experienced veterinarians is here to help you manage your pet’s weight in a healthy and effective way. We will provide a personalized plan based on your pet’s age, breed, lifestyle, and specific needs.

Our weight management program for cats and dogs includes:

• A comprehensive evaluation of your pet’s health and lifestyle
• Determining your pet’s ideal weight goal
• Developing a personalized feeding plan
• Providing advice on exercise and physical activity
• Regular monitoring of your pet’s progress
• Support and encouragement throughout the process

How can I tell if my pet is overweight or obese?

You can assess your pet’s body condition by feeling their ribs. If you cannot easily feel them, your pet is likely overweight. You can also ask your veterinarian to confirm your pet’s body condition during an examination.

What can I do to help my pet lose weight?

The first step is to consult your veterinarian to determine the cause of your pet’s weight gain and rule out any underlying medical issues. Once your veterinarian gives the green light, you can start implementing a weight management plan that includes dietary changes and increased physical activity.

How long will it take for my pet to lose weight?

Weight loss takes time and patience. In general, cats and dogs should lose about 1% of their body weight per week. It is important to track your pet’s progress and consult your veterinarian regularly to ensure you are on the right track.

Feel free to contact us to schedule an appointment with one of our animal nutritionists or veterinarians to discuss your pet’s weight and develop a personalized weight management plan. Together, we can help your furry companion achieve a healthy weight and live a long, happy life!
