This February, be your dog’s best friend.

  Join us for the National Canine Weight Check

During the month of February, clients are invited to bring their dogs to Atlantic Animal Hospital for free weight assessments, including breed-specific information. The month-long health initiative will also help raise awareness of the serious medical issues associated with obesity in dogs including heart disease, arthritis, skin conditions and breathing problems. Additionally, obesity can worsen the signs associated with pre-existing diseases such as high blood pressure, hormone disorders and joint disease.

At the weight checks:

• Your dog will receive a free weight assessment, including breed-specific information where applicable by one of our veterinary assistants.
• You’ll receive a weight check card where you can keep a record of your dog’s weight, along with educational materials on canine obesity and its health implications.
• You’ll also receive a mail-in certificate for a free thermal blanket, just for participating in the weight check.

Your dog’s weight is a serious matter.

 So is ignoring it!
