Nutrition Counseling

Nutrition plays a critical role in your pet’s overall health and well-being. Whether your pet has special dietary needs or simply needs to shed (or gain) a few pounds, our nutritional counseling services can help you accomplish your goals and keep your pet in good health.

With the availability of so many nutritionally complete commercial diets, one would think that this has taken much of the guesswork out of choosing a suitable diet for a pet. However, did you know:

  • Pet nutritional needs change with age and activity level?
  • Diet can assist in the management of various medical conditions-such as kidney disease, diabetes, arthritis, and heart disease?
  • How many calories your pet should have each day?
  • Whether you are over- or under-feeding your pet?
  • Are you comfortable reading and interpreting pet food labels?

If you answered no to any of these questions, we are here to help! Our veterinarians offer counseling in dietary selection and feeding practices for pets during various life stages, such as puppyhood, pregnancy, nursing, and the golden years. If your pet has a medical condition, we can help you select the most appropriate diet to suit your pet’s needs.

Brookhaven Animal Hospital is...

I have been a General Manager of 2 different dog daycare / boarding facilities in the area and have always have had great interactions with Brookhaven Animal Hospital. They have been trustworthy and personable. As someone who has a career in the small animal industry, this is definitely a clinic I would recommended.

Great place to take you pet! All the staff is caring and have taken my old dog in several times with short notice, which throws havoc to schedules. And I can still get routine visits within a couple days. Very caring group.

Brookhaven Animal Hospital is a fantastic team of professionals who genuinely care about the well being of your pets. They are kind to your pets... and they are always transparent about what is recommended to better their health. I've owned animals my entire life and have never trusted a vet clinic more than I do the team at Brookhaven Animal Hospital. Highly recommend.
