Why Pet Nutrition Matters
Just like in humans, poor nutrition in pets can lead to a range of preventable health problems—including obesity, dental disease, digestive issues, and metabolic disorders. On the other hand, a balanced, species-appropriate diet can:
- Improve energy and mobility
- Support immune health and organ function
- Promote a shiny coat and healthy skin
- Enhance digestion and stool quality
- Help manage chronic disease and recovery from illness
Our goal is to provide you with a long-term plan that evolves with your pet’s needs over time.
Is Your Pet at Risk for Nutritional Issues?
Pets may need a nutrition consultation if they:
- Are gaining or losing weight unexpectedly
- Have food allergies or intolerances
- Experience frequent gastrointestinal upset
- Have chronic conditions like kidney, heart, or joint disease
- Are aging or entering a new life stage
- Seem uninterested in food or overeat regularly
If you’re unsure whether your pet’s current diet is meeting their needs, we’re happy to review it and make recommendations.
