Nutrition & Diet

Nutrition

At Loving Care Animal Clinic, we understand that a healthy diet is essential to your pet's overall well-being. That's why we offer recommendations on nutrition and diet to help keep your furry friend healthy and fit. Our team of experienced veterinarians will work with you to help form an appropriate diet plan for your pet. From selecting the right foods to recommending supplements and special diets, we're here to help your pet thrive. Below, you will find answers to common questions, and as always, feel free to give us a call at 231-335-1911.

Switching your pet's food should be done gradually to prevent digestive upset. Start by mixing a small amount of the new food with the old food and gradually increase the amount of new food over several days. It may take several weeks for your pet to adjust to the new food, so be patient. If your pet experiences any digestive issues or changes in behavior, contact our veterinary team for advice. We can help you choose the best food for your pet and provide guidance on how to make the switch safely and effectively.

A balanced diet is essential for your pet's health and well-being. It's important to feed your pet a diet that contains all the necessary nutrients in the right amounts, including proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals. Our veterinary team can help you choose the best type of food and formulate a balanced diet that meets your pet's specific needs. We may also recommend regular check-ups and blood tests to monitor your pet's nutritional status.

Overweight and obese pets are at increased risk of developing health problems such as diabetes, joint problems, and heart disease. If your pet is overweight, our veterinary team can recommend a weight loss program that includes a balanced diet, regular exercise, and monitoring of their progress. We may also recommend a prescription weight loss diet, which can help your pet lose weight safely and effectively. Regular check-ups and blood tests can help monitor your pet's progress and ensure they are on track to reach a healthy weight.
