It happens to the best of us………..an extra treat here or there, a little less exercise done in the winter months……….and suddenly the pounds creep up.
The same as it is for humans; if our pets become overweight it increases the chances of arthritis, heart disease, and even cancer. All in all, it can shorten their lives, and it IS possible to reverse if adjusted in time.
WE ARE HERE TO HELP!
Firstly, our qualified nurses at each clinic run FREE OF CHARGE weight clinics, where they will examine your pet, weigh them, calculate the target weight and the time it should take to reach this using Hills software. They will then run follow up appointments, also free of charge, to assess the progress and adjust the program if necessary.
As well as looking at an exercise plan, changing your pet’s diet is key in reducing their weight. We recommend Hills RD diet to lose the weight, and then a maintenance diet once the target weight has been reached.
Hills RD diet is high in fibre, and therefore a pet fed the correct amount should not be constantly hungry, which is often the case if you just reduce the amount of the diet they are already having. This is not pleasant for the animal, or the owner looking after it!
Hills RD diet also changes the way the genes actually manage the food eaten, and ensures pets are less likely to lay down fat.
If you would like to know more, please ask at reception, or book a free of charge weight clinic with the nurse.
While stocks last we are offering a 50% off Hills RD diet, which includes both the tinned and dry versions.
