Obesity in animals is linked to an increased risk of conditions
Weight management is an important part of your pet’s health care. Obesity in animals is linked to an increased risk of conditions such as osteoarthritis and diabetes mellitus as well as impacting on their ability to exercise and breath. Conversely pets that seem unable to gain weight can often have an underlying medical condition.
If you are unsure if your pet is of a healthy weight, please feel free to pop in and speak to one of our nurses who can advise on diet and exercise.

If your pet requires a special diet it is likely they will need to be fed this for a long period of time or even the rest of their lives.

During this consultation the nurse will discuss your pet’s current diet and make suggestions or recommendations where necessary. Weight management clinics are also available to help your pet lose those extra pounds!
