Obesity Management: Building Successful Weight Loss Programs in Dogs

Canine obesity is one of the most common nutritional disorders encountered in veterinary practice and is associated with a wide range of health complications. Successful weight management requires more than calorie restriction, it demands a structured, individualized approach that incorporates nutritional assessment, dietary planning, exercise, regular monitoring, and owner commitment. This webinar offers a practical framework for developing effective weight loss programs in dogs, covering body condition scoring, calorie calculations, selection of therapeutic diets, exercise recommendations, progress monitoring, client communication, and long-term weight maintenance. Practical strategies for improving owner compliance and overcoming common barriers to successful weight management will also be discussed.
