Pet Weight Management Clinics in Whitehaven
Helping dogs and cats achieve a healthy weight through expert nutrition advice, serving West Cumbria
A healthy weight is one of the most important factors in your pet’s overall wellbeing.
Whether your dog needs to shed a few extra pounds, your cat needs help gaining weight, or you just want to keep them in great shape, our pet weight management clinics offer the support and guidance they need.
Our dedicated clinics combine professional nutritional guidance with practical, real-world advice tailored to your pet’s age, lifestyle, breed, and health needs, because no two pets are the same.
Why Your Pet’s Healthy Weight Matters
Keeping your pet at a healthy weight isn’t just about looks, it’s about their long-term health and happiness.
Maintaining the right weight can:
- Reduce the risk of illness and injury
- Support joint health and mobility
- Improve energy levels and behaviour
- Boost quality of life and even life expectancy
- Help manage conditions like diabetes, kidney disease, and arthritis
Good pet nutrition is a key part of achieving and maintaining this balance. That’s why every weight management appointment includes personalised pet nutrition advice tailored to your pet’s needs.
What Happens in a Weight Management Consultation?
We believe in safe, gradual, and sustainable weight changes – no crash diets, no unrealistic targets. During your pets clinic appointment, our experienced nurses will:

their diet, lifestyle, and eating habits

We know that the right food can transform your pet’s health. That’s why we stock and recommend Virbac, a trusted veterinary food brand with options for:
