River Valley Veterinary Service

Does it seem like your dog is out of breath after a walk up the stairs? Is your cat taking up a lot more space on the top of the couch than it used to? Overweight pets may seem like they are happy, but an extra five pounds can be harmful to their health. They can suffer from heart, lung and joint problems. We recommend a sensible diet along with regular exercise and a trip to our hospital to determine if and how much weight your pet needs to lose.
