The majority of pet owners with obese pets don’t even realize their pet is overweight. The reason? Slow weight gain over a period of time is often undetectable, especially when you see your pet every day.

Sometimes it isn’t as easy as simply reducing calories or increasing exercise. The quality of food, and availability of nutrients, and your pets individual health status and metabolism all play a role too.

If you need assistance with your pets weight please let one of our knowledgeable team members know …or book a consult here.
