Let’s Talk Dog and Cat Nutrition

“What should I feed my dog or cat?” Do you dread when a client asks that question? Do clients ask grain-free, vegetarian, vegan, raw, and homemade diet questions that you are not sure how to answer? Do grain-free diets cause DCM? Are you confident about your nutritional history and recommendation skills? This talk will provide you with nutritional knowledge to obtain a full nutritional history (quickly!), educate clients, and make nutritional recommendations. We will discuss how to read and understand pet food labels, how to determine the daily caloric requirements, common facts, and misconceptions of grain-free, vegetarian, vegan, raw, homemade, and commercially available diets. The latest information on grain-free and other diet types with a possible relationship to DCM will also be covered in this session.

This webinar is approved by the MVTA for 2 CEU
