Personalized Pet Nutrition

Good nutrition is the foundation of your pet’s overall health, beginning at birth and continuing through every stage of life. At Bellevue Animal Clinic, we are here to answer all your questions about your pet’s dietary needs and help you make the best nutritional choices for their well-being.

The Importance of Weight Management

Maintaining a healthy weight is vital to your pet’s overall health and quality of life. Excess weight can lead to a variety of health issues, including:

• Breathing Problems: Overweight pets often struggle with respiratory issues.
• High Blood Pressure: Extra weight increases the risk of cardiovascular problems.
• Arthritis and Joint Pain: Excess weight puts additional strain on joints, leading to discomfort and reduced mobility.
• Skin Problems: Overweight pets may experience more skin-related issues due to poor nutrition and reduced grooming.
• Decreased Activity Levels: Extra weight can cause fatigue and limit your pet’s energy levels.

Body Condition Assessment

During every visit, we assess your pet’s physical condition to ensure they are at their ideal weight. We utilize the Body Condition System, a reliable tool that helps us evaluate your pet’s overall shape and determine if any dietary or lifestyle adjustments are needed.
