Diet & Nutritional Counseling

At Rutland Animal Hospital, we know how important it is to give your dog or cat the right food that they will love but, more importantly, will help improve bodily functions and keep energy levels consistent. Our team of expert veterinarians can provide nutritional counseling to help you choose the best food and medicine to keep your pet happy and healthy.

Giant Breeds

Giant breeds such as Great Danes, Irish wolfhounds, and giant schnauzers have unique dietary requirements. Very few commercial puppy foods offer the ideal mix of calcium, energy, and protein levels that these breeds need. We can provide you with feeding recommendations that will encourage your dog’s maximum growth potential without causing developmental problems. For added convenience, we also stock veterinary-approved diets for giant breeds.

Puppies & Kittens

It’s easy to get confused or overwhelmed by all the pet foods on the market. Our Rutland Animal Hospital veterinarians can help you weed through the choices and find a puppy or kitten food that will meet your growing pet’s specific nutritional needs. We even carry many nutritionally balanced, veterinary-approved brands in our clinic and online pharmacy.
