Weight Loss

​

Excess weight in dogs and cats can lead to a myriad of health issues, and has huge detrimental effects on overall well-being. Carrying unneeded weight places stress on joints, exacerbating the risk of musculoskeletal issues such as arthritis and various injuries. Overweight pets are also more prone to cardiovascular complications, respiratory problems, diabetes and other weight-related disorders, which compromise quality of life and has been shown to shorten lifespan.

 

Our practitioners aim for each pet to achieve and maintain an ideal Body Condition Score (BCS). This standardized scoring system evaluates body fat and muscle mass, which allows us to determine and provide an appropriate daily energy requirement (caloric recommendation) for your pet. Our approach not only focuses on weight loss, but also emphasizes muscle strengthening and joint support, ensuring a full transformation. Along with targeted exercises and consistent weigh ins, we will be your biggest cheerleaders in the journey to helping your pet shed excess weight and achieve an optimal BCS.

 

Witness the amazing positive transformation that weight loss can have on your pet’s health. From increased energy levels, improved comfort and mobility, to an overall healthier quality of life, optimal weight translates into remarkable changes in all aspects of our pet's lives.
