Nutritional Counselling
Pet Nutrition & Dietary Advice | Cara Veterinary Group Dublin
Cara Veterinary Group in Dublin provides expert pet nutrition and dietary advice to help your dog or cat maintain a healthy weight and active lifestyle. Our vets offer personalised feeding plans and support for pets with special dietary needs or medical conditions.
Why Nutrition Matters
A balanced diet is the foundation of good health for every pet. Whether your pet needs a weight management plan, special food for a medical condition, or simply the right balance of nutrients for their age and breed, our team at Cara Veterinary Group can help you make informed choices.
Many common health issues - such as obesity, skin problems, and digestive disorders - can be managed or prevented through proper nutrition. Our veterinary nurses and vets provide practical, science-based guidance to keep your pet happy, healthy, and full of energy.
What We Offer
- Tailored diet plans based on your pet’s age, breed, and lifestyle
- Nutritional counselling for overweight pets
- Dietary support for pets with allergies, diabetes, or kidney disease
- Guidance on life-stage nutrition (puppy, kitten, adult, senior)
- Advice on prescription and therapeutic diets
We also assess your pet’s body condition score (BCS) to determine the best plan for maintaining an ideal weight and optimal health.
