Did you know that an estimated 50% of household pets are
overweight, or worse, obese, for their weight class? This can be a very serious
issue down the road! Our pets age significantly faster than we do, putting them
at a greater risk of health problems over a shorter period of time. If a pet is
over their ideal body weight, they have even more chance of developing health
problems such as arthritis, heart disease, diabetes, and kidney failure, just
to name a few.
We can provide pet weigh-ins, ideal weight recommendations,
and weight management advice for pet owners who are concerned about their pet’s
weight management as well as current or future health concerns. If you have
questions about your pet’s weight, diet, exercise, or overall health, please
don’t hesitate to ask! That’s what we’re here for.
