Colder weather often exacerbates underlying joint health issues. As pets age, the cartilage within a joint that buffers the bones that form the joint, starts to thin out, leaving your pet with pain and reduced movement. There are a number of products that can help prevent and ease joint pain but, at the end of the day (much as with ourselves), keeping weight low is the most important step.

Benson came to see us for his Senior Health Check in February.

His owners were worried as he seemed to be tiring on walks and was having difficulty with steps. At that time he weighed in at 27.2 kgs and, at that weight, was way too heavy.

Benson went on a diet. His devoted owners were very strong and have adhered to strict daily feeding amounts of the prescribed food.

At his last weigh in, on June 10th, he had lost an amazing 5.5 kgs and is now at his goal weight of 21.7kgs.
