Pet Diet Nutritionist in McKinney, TX
“We are what we eat” applies to our pets too!
We invite you to take advantage of our comprehensive pet nutritional counseling in McKinney! Maintaining a healthy, nutritional diet and overcoming weight challenges are an issue for some pets. It is extremely important to the Perky Paws Pet Hospital team to provide as much support as possible for each pet owner as he or she determines the healthiest nutrition and diet choices for a beloved pet. Determining those best choices grows more confusing each day due to the overwhelming number of available pet food brands and conflicting online information.
The Pet nutritional counseling that we provide at Perky Paws Pet Hospital extends beyond food choices
Our pet nutritional counseling in McKinney includes analysis of your pet’s breed, daily activity level, eating and drinking behaviors, existing medical conditions, current life stage (such as infancy through senior stages, pregnancy, nursing, etc). We invite your input and home observations of your pet’s eating and drinking habits and fluctuations in weight and/or appearance to help build the best nutritional and diet plan for the longevity of your pet.
Our comprehensive McKinney pet nutritional counseling approaches your pet’s nutrition and diet needs from several angles. We evaluate your pet as an individual who deserves nutritional analysis tailored to his/her lifestyle and health needs.
To meet our clients’ needs, Perky Paws Pet Hospital carries a wide range of foods and nutritional supplements that enable us to design a diet that will optimize your pet’s health! Below are some examples of diet types that we consider for our clients’ pets:
Prescription Diets for pets
Prescription diets are formulated and designed to meet specific nutritional needs required for certain illnesses and conditions. We offer a variety of prescription diets to help manage health diseases and conditions, such as diabetes, kidney disease, liver disease, obesity, arthritis, allergies, pancreatitis, and many more.
Life Stage Diets
Life stage diets are designed based on your pet’s needs at a particular stage of life. During the ageing process, your’ pet’s body undergoes significant changes that can be influenced by diet. Other examples of major life changes that occur throughout life may include pregnancy and nursing. We want your pet to live a long, happy, and healthy life, and nutrition is an important factor in achieving this!
