Tailored guidance and support optimizing a pet’s overall well-being through proper dietary choices.
Food is the fuel that literally keeps us going, and the same is true about our furry family members. With the wide variety of breed, age and health condition-specific requirements that your pet has, along with the thousands of food options available, it can be overwhelming to figure out the right diet for them. We are here to help. At Fifth Avenue Veterinary Clinic, we believe that no one food is ideal for every pet. Please speak to one of our team members to learn about how we can optimize your pet’s nutrition. Simply give us a ring at 519-307-2510.
Then it comes to your pet’s nutrition, the diet best suited for them will depend on their age, breed and any health condition. For example, there are special formulations of pet foods for kittens, adult cats and senior cats. In the same way, a pet with diabetes will need a different diet compared with a pet who has cancer. During a consultation at our clinic, we will be able to provide you with info on the best foods for your pet.
Several types of foods can cause irritation, allergies, toxicity and even death in your furry friend. To remain as safe as possible, we suggest sticking to foods and treats made specifically for pets, and stay away from “people” food as much as possible.

You and your pet will have a one-on-one session with our veterinarians and technicians. Your pet’s overall health will be assessed and you will have a chance to share any of your concerns or goals when it comes to their nutrition. Then, you will be given recommendations on specific formulations, brands, portion sizes, feeding style/frequency that will work best for your pet. A follow-up appointment may be scheduled in the future to track progress and see if any tweaks need to be made.
