What can I learn from a nutritional consultation?

If you’re unsure of how much to feed your pet or if you need help decoding pet food labels, we’re here to help. During a nutritional consultation, we can help you better understand your pet’s dietary needs. This can include finding nutritional foods or supplements that work best for your pet’s body. We will also determine if your pet has any allergies or nutritional deficiencies and how best to treat them. From there, we can create a personalized nutrition plan tailored to your pet’s medical and lifestyle needs.

Why is nutritional counselling important?

Choosing an appropriate diet for your pet can set them on the right path. It can also help prevent many health conditions such as allergies, nutritional deficiencies, and obesity. But what works for one pet may not necessarily work for another. Nutritional requirements for pets vary depending on various factors including age, breed, and health. For instance, senior pets have different needs than puppies or kittens. In the same way, animals with diabetes or other health conditions can benefit from specific diets.
