Hilltop Science Plus - Weight Control and Joint Care

Maintaining a healthy weight in dogs is essential for long-term everyday health and well-being. Clinical studies have found that up to 65% of dogs suffer from obesity or are above their ideal weight. Excess weight can have adverse effects on health and welfare by increasing the risk of diseases, causing functional impairment, shortening lifespan, and
reducing overall quality of life. Factors that can influence a dog’s body weight include food intake, activity level, neuter status, gender, metabolism, and genetics. Increased weight in dogs is a complex issue, but having an appropriately formulated diet can be part of the
solution to help dog owners manage a healthy body weight for their dogs.
