Pets can become overweight due to over-eating (food bags typically tell you too much to feed your pet) or due to feeding a high calorie pet food (such as grain-free).  Dogs that have a low thyroid level may be overweight. Pets that are 15% or more over their optimum body weight are prone to arthritis, heart disease, respiratory diseases, pancreatitis, Diabetes and liver failure due to Hepatic Lipidosis (in cats).  A complete blood panel should be performed to check for these medical conditions.  Research has shown that dogs fed a correctly measured amount of adult dog food lived 1.8 years longer than their littermates  that were fed unrestricted amounts of food.  If you believe or have  been told that your pet is overweight, please enroll your pet in our Weight Management Program.

November 2024 Monthly Special:  Nutrition for Optimum Health Month

As we traditionally celebrate November and Thanksgiving with food, we have decided to offer a 3% discount on all medical diets and pet foods that we carry and a 5% discount on all weight loss formulation diets (Purina OM, Royal Canin Satiety, and Hill's R/D) during the month of November.

What you choose to feed your pet can be a very important factor affecting you pet's health and life expectancy.  We recommend pet food companies such as Purina, Hills and Royal Canin that formulate their diets based on over 50 years of clinical research by veterinarians and PhD nutritionists and are dedicated to assure that all ingredients and their pet foods meet stringent criteria for quality and nutrient content.
