A healthy lifestyle is just as important to our pets as it is to us humans. Keeping your pet active, good nutrition and reducing treats will keep them at a healthy weight and could help lower the risk of things like diabetes, joint damage and heart disease. Did you know diabetes affects 1 in 200 cats and 1 in 300 dogs?
Could there be a problem?
If you answer yes to any of the questions below you may want to talk to us about weight management:
- Do you have difficulty feeling your pet’s ribs?
- Is there little or no ‘waist’?
- Is your pet reluctant to exercise?
- Does your pet seem to tire easily with activity?
- Does your pet keep eating so long as there is food in the bowl?
