Tips for weight loss

 

Why is weight so important?

Keeping your pets at optimum weight is vital for their well-being.

If your pet is overweight, it is usually because it is eating too much, or it is not getting enough exercise. However, it is always best to get your vet to check if there are any health problems.

Obesity can lead to:

heart and circulatory problems

respiratory problems

urinary tract infections

diabetes mellitus

increased risk during surgery and anaesthetics

In addition, OSTEOARTHRITIS can also be more painful in obese patients.

From all this it follows that weight management is crucial for a happier and more active life, especially in the senior pet.
