Constructive Weight Discussion
Simply saying “Your dog or cat is overweight” can risk affecting the client
relationship negatively.
• Veterinary teams can now point to a root cause that was
1. Previously unknown
2. Out of the control of pet owners
Removing any emotional baggage or guilt creates space for a meaningful and constructive
conversation that is in the best interest of the pet.
How to Transition Patients to VETERINARY HPM® Pet Nutrition
When beginning a new food, it is always recommended to transition pets gradually. Advise
clients to begin introducing the new food as a portion of their pet’s regularly scheduled
meals and increase the portion of the new food over a period of five consecutive days until
the pet is fully transitioned to VETERINARY HPM Pet Nutrition.
Depending on the protein content of the previous food, clients may notice an increase in
water intake. Advise clients to always supply fresh drinking water.
