Weight awareness month 💪
One of the most commonly asked questions we get asked about pets' weight 'is his/her weight ok?'
The answer is there is no set number we can assign to each animal. Instead we follow a scoring scale, where we assess each dog/cat's body condition and assign a number.
We use this number as an indicator of how close they are to ideal body weight and can use it to calculate an estimated ideal body weight.
If your pet is any higher on the scale than a 6/9 it is likely weight loss will be best achieved using a veterinary approved weight loss diet. Follow tomorrows post to see what we have to offer and help teach you about the benefits of these foods in the weight management of pets.
