Ask Your Vet...
ABOUT SHIFTS TO HIS DIET:
Based on Cooper’s metabolites, it seems he is at higher risk for developing arthritis. What calcium-rich foods would you recommend?
ABOUT HEALTHIER TREATS:
Cooper seems to have a predisposition to diabetes. I love to spoil him with treats, but is there any other ways to reward him that won’t have adverse effects on his health?
