Weight Management Counseling
Did you know you can add 1.5 – 2 years to your pet’s life just by controlling its weight. Purina recently conducted a 14 year study on obesity in dogs. They found that overweight dogs developed life threatening diseases earlier than fit dogs. These diseases included liver disease, kidney disease, diabetes and others as well as non-life threatening diseases like osteoarthritis. The moral is: fit dogs live longer than overweight dogs.
