Pet Nutrition & Diet
Nutrition is Important to your Pet’s Good Health
The food and treats you feed your pet is essential for maintaining their overall health. As they grow older, your pet’s nutritional needs may change since each life stage requires a specific balance of vitamins, minerals, protein, fats, and carbohydrates for good digestive health. At your pet’s next wellness exam, our veterinarians can determine the best type of food that is right for your pet based on age, breed, and health.
Weight Management
Cats and dogs that are significantly overweight or underweight are more susceptible to health issues and complications due to disease and injury. Obesity is a serious issue for many pets and can be a complicating factor in heart conditions, arthritis, liver conditions and other ailments. At Timberline Animal Hospital, our veterinarians can give you advice and tools to help your pet maintain a healthy weight.
