At Barstow Animal Hospital, we offer comprehensive nutrition services for dogs and cats, recognizing how crucial a proper diet is for your pet’s overall health and well-being. We understand that each pet has unique nutritional needs based on their breed, age, size, activity level, and any existing health conditions. That's why we work with you to create personalized dietary plans that address specific concerns, such as obesity, food allergies, digestive issues, and chronic conditions like diabetes or kidney disease.
Our team is dedicated to helping you choose the right food for your pet, whether it's high-quality commercial food or a specialized diet. We guide you in selecting the best options for your pet’s specific needs, whether they require commercial dry, commercial wet, or home-cooked food. We also provide tips on portion control, feeding schedules, and the importance of balanced nutrition to prevent obesity, a growing concern among pets today.
For pets dealing with health issues, we provide prescription diets that are scientifically formulated to support their medical conditions. These diets are designed to manage diseases such as renal failure, heart disease, and food sensitivities, while promoting your pet’s overall health. We ensure that your pet’s diet works in conjunction with their treatment plan, helping them to feel better and recover faster.
We also offer advice on proper supplementation and treats to complement your pet’s diet, helping to keep them healthy and happy. Regular check-ups allow us to monitor your pet’s weight and nutritional needs, adjusting their diet as they age or as health concerns arise. Our goal is to help your pet live a long, healthy life by providing the best possible nutrition advice and care tailored to their individual needs.
