FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my pet is overweight?

A veterinary body condition assessment helps determine if your pet is at a healthy weight. Signs of obesity include difficulty walking, heavy breathing, and a lack of visible waistline.

Can I feed my pet human food?

Some human foods are safe in moderation, but many (like chocolate, grapes, onions, and fatty meats) can be toxic to pets. Always consult your vet before introducing new foods.

What is the best diet for my senior pet?

Senior pets often need lower-calorie diets with joint-supporting nutrients such as omega-3 fatty acids and glucosamine. We create customized meal plans based on their health status.

Does my pet need supplements?

While a balanced diet usually meets nutritional needs, some pets may benefit from supplements for joint health, skin conditions, or digestion. Our team can assess and recommend the right options.

How often should I change my pet’s diet?

Diet changes should be gradual and based on age, health conditions, or dietary intolerance. Sudden changes can cause digestive upset, so we guide you through safe transitions.
