Diet can make a huge impact on your pet’s health.
The right diet can support a healthy weight, strong immune system, and improved energy levels. Poor nutrition in pets contributes to digestive issues, skin conditions, and chronic health problems. At easyvet Allen, our team can offer expert nutritional guidance to help pet owners choose a balanced diet for their cat or dog in Allex, TX.
Selecting Your
Pet’s Food
Every pet is different, and their dietary needs change based on factors like age, activity level, and health conditions. When selecting pet food, owners should consider questions like:
- Is my pet getting a well-balanced diet?
- Does my pet have any allergies or food sensitivities?
- How should I adjust their food based on a change in age or lifestyle?
- Does my pet need additional supplements due to a health issue?
- Am I feeding the right portion size to maintain a healthy weight?
The right nutrition can contribute to preventing obesity, promote a shiny coat, support digestive health, and keep energy levels stable. If you are asking yourself the above questions but are unsure about the answers, our veterinary team is happy to help guide you.
If you are confused about choosing the healthiest food for your pet, you are not alone.
There are high-quality commercial pet foods that provide complete and balanced nutrition, but not all brands meet the same standards. At easyvet Allen, we can recommend premium over-the-counter foods that support your pet’s specific dietary needs based on:
- Age: Puppies, kittens, adults, and senior pets all have different nutritional requirements.
- Lifestyle: Active pets may need higher protein levels, while less active pets may require lower-calorie diets.
- Medical Considerations: Pets with food allergies, digestive sensitivities, or chronic conditions may need specialized diets or supplements.
As your pet grows or develops new health concerns, their dietary needs will change, and we can make sure their nutrition stays aligned with their wellness needs.
Prescription Diets for Pets with Specific Needs
For pets with certain health conditions, standard pet food may not be enough. Some medical conditions require prescription diets, which are formulated to provide targeted nutrition for specific health concerns. Our veterinarians may prescribe a therapeutic diet for conditions such as kidney disease, diabetes, urinary tract health, food allergies, and joint issues.
If your companion requires a prescription diet, easyvet Allen carries a selection of prescription foods in-house for your convenience. We will also guide you through the transition process so that your pet has a smaller chance of temporary digestive issues as they adjust to a new diet.
