What to Expect During Weight Management

During a weight management consultation, we'll assess your pet's current diet, activity level, and body condition score to identify what changes will make the biggest difference. From there, we may recommend a specific diet, portion adjustments, or an exercise plan, along with regular weigh-ins to track progress.

Why Managing Obesity Is Important

Excess weight strains your pet's joints, organs, and overall health, and can shorten their lifespan. Reaching and maintaining a healthy weight helps reduce the risk of diabetes, joint disease, and other weight-related conditions, so your pet can stay active and comfortable longer.
