Nutrition Counselling

Nutritional consultations are a great way to learn about your pets’ dietary needs so that they can feel as good as their healthy food tastes. Our veterinarians are here to take the stress away from figuring out what to feed your pet, so they can feel their best at all times. To book an appointment, please don’t hesitate to call us at 905-579-4040. 

What are the benefits of nutrition counselling?

Labels can be confusing when trying to figure out what to feed your pet. But fear not, our team is great at translating nutritional information and techniques into a more digestible and practical way. We can help determine if your pet has any allergies and what their dietary needs are, taking into account their age, breed, health and lifestyle. We can create a plan that includes a well-balanced nutritious diet, supplements and a feeding schedule that works best for them. By providing a detailed history of their eating habits and lifestyle, we can work together to help your pet maintain a healthier life. 

What food should I never feed my pet?

Sharing may be a reflex when your furry companion stares at you with puppy dog eyes. But the truth is that some human foods can cause serious health problems for your pet or cause allergic reactions. If you’re unsure what you can or cannot feed your pet, our veterinarians would be happy to walk you through your options. Some foods you should avoid include:

• Dairy products (milk)
• Raw meat and eggs 
• Raisins and grapes
• Chocolate and caffeine
• Garlic and onions
