Selecting which diet to feed your pet can be a difficult, yet very important decision you make to help keep your pet happy and healthy for as long as possible.

We encourage owners to feed diets other than Raw diets or BARF (bones and raw food) diets.

Some of the most important things you can do to extend the number of happy healthy years you enjoy with your pet involve providing regular exercise, love and attention, a high-quality balanced diet, and keeping your pet’s body condition score at a 4-5 out of 9.

The veterinarians at Martensville Veterinary Hospital take special interest in veterinary nutrition, and pride themselves on providing a professional, educated recommendation for your pet’s nutrition.

At Martensville Veterinary Hospital, we use the 9 point Body Condition Scoring developed by Purina, otherwise known as the “healthy hug”.

Martensville Veterinary Hospital is a Cat Friendly Practice. We love cats and want them to get the benefit of preventive medicine and early detection of disease.

Puppies need many positive experiences before the age of five months to promote a confident, friendly adult personality.
