We have always believed that in order to get the best out of your dog or cat in the form of quality and length of life then you must feed them the best possible food.

As part of our overall health program we recommend Premium Pet foods and a wide selection of these are available at the surgery.  Eukanuba, Hills Science Diet and Royal Canin are arguably the best available on the market.  These are proven foods with a world-wide distribution - not locally produced newcomers claiming to be the best.

Premium pet foods are better because they contain higher quality ingredients, are better balanced to be a complete diet, contain no artificial colours and have fewer preservatives.  Because thse foods are based on high quality animal source proteins and fats they are more highly digestible.  This means the body can use a higher percentage of food that is eaten with fewer waste products.

We invariably find that pets fed on these truly Premium foods have:

  • A healthy shiny coat with fewer skin problems
  • Small, firm droppings with less flatulence
  • Better muscle tone and energy levels
  • Overall better sense of well-being

Premium pet foods are only available through Veterinarians and selected pet shops.

The come in life-stage formulas ranging from Puppy through to Adult and Senior as well as diets for specific requirements such as hair balls, sensitive skin or stomach and breed specific diets such as a Labrador formulation.

Our Veterinary Nurses are familiar with all the types of Premium Foods available and are regularly in contact with the manufacturers representatives who supply them with the most up to date research data and train them in which foods suit which cases.

This means we have the knowledge to advise you on which food will be the best for your pet.   All this is free of charge and is part of our service.
