Nutrition Counselling

The food your pet eats has a direct connection to their health. An improper balance of nutrients can leave your pet susceptible to illnesses and impede their growth. With nutrition counselling, we focus on what your pet is eating and how it makes them feel or helps them develop. A nutritional checkup can extend your pet’s life by preventing them from developing health problems that can shorten their life.

Why is nutrition counselling important?

During a consultation, you learn about the unique dietary needs of your pet such as what nutrients, supplements and vitamins they need. Nutrition counselling is particularly beneficial to pet parents whose pets have nutritional diseases like obesity, allergies, hypertension, eating disorders, urinary issues and kidney problems. We can recommend food products that have been medically and scientifically proven to manage these conditions. These consultations can help your pet lose or gain weight in a healthy way.

What foods should I feed my pet?

Your pet’s food should include a healthy balance of nutrients like proteins, fat, fibre and carbohydrates. Your loyal companion needs protein to build muscle, fibre for good gut health, carbs for energy and fatty acids to keep their skin and coat healthy. We can provide your pet with foods for their prescription diet as well as for regular maintenance. To get your pet on the right path for proper nutrition, give us a call at 613-829-0220 or 613-843-1334.
