The food and treats you feed your pet are essential to their health, vitality and longevity. We also know the decision on what to feed and treat grows more difficult each day. Keeping your pet at a healthy weight is an important part of your pet's health and vitality. A pet that is overweight or underweight may be experiencing an illness and may be more susceptible to disease and injury. Obesity is a complicating factor in heart conditions, arthritis, liver conditions and other ailments such as arthritis and joint pain. When your pet is overweight it puts a strain on every part of the animal, from its feet to back, to internal organs and even its vision. Being overweight is a serious problem that can be easily corrected with diet and exercise – just like our human counterparts!
