I say yes to science in the workplace (to monitor our dogs body condition)!   I could talk about this amazing initiative over and over, as our Royal Canin Campus offers a great tool and expertise to do so! Weight management is key to maintaining dogs’ overall well-being, especially for larger breeds (and as you know, I’m a Labrador lover).   The way to go about this is sharing valuable insights when it comes to the pet’s Body Condition Score, a 9-point scale used by veterinary professionals. It’s the most reliable method to evaluate the body fat mass in pets, giving us a clear and scientific picture of their health. However, we understand that managing your pet's food-seeking behavior can be a daunting task, especially with those pleading eyes begging for just one more treat. On Campus, we're thrilled to have the expert Georgia Woods-Lee BSc (Hons) RVN CertCFVHNut VTS (Nut) offering 10-minute consultations as she will provide expert advice on how to manage your dog's BCS and food-seeking behavior.   At Royal Canin, we're driven by our passion for pet health and our commitment to science. We take pride in providing pet owners with the knowledge and tools they need to ensure their pets live their healthiest, happiest lives. We invite all pet parents to make the most of this opportunity. Let's work together to ensure our pets are as healthy as they can be!   #RoyalCanin #ProudlyRoyalCanin #BodyConditionScore #WeightManagement #PetObesity #HealthThroughNutritin #ABetterWorldForPets

#mythbusting #mondays are back! Each week over the next 4 weeks, we will explore Introducing cats and dogs: today is part 1! 💜💜💜 Introducing a new dog or puppy is possibly not positive for everyone in the household, and it's normal for your clients to have many questions in trying to keep everyone happy. There are many things to consider when introducing a dog/puppy to a cat, from the breed and age of the puppy/dog, to setting the house up in a way that minimises stress for their cat. Then there’s the actual process of physically introducing them to each other – where to even begin? 🌻Be. Prepared.🌻 Planning ahead can minimise a lot of stress for all involved. - Encourage your client to pick a suitable puppy/dog for their lifestyle; and if that includes a cat, consider them too - What is the layout of their house and where all the resources are going to fit? - the cat and their new puppy/dog must be completely separated for a few days *at least* - The cat’s food, water (>0.5m away from food), litter, resting bed, sleeping bed (different to the resting bed) & play spaces must provide safety and privacy for the cat. - Cats do not like change, so moving any of these resources e.g. food & water bowls, do gradually and well ahead of time. - Your client's cat needs access to multiple elevated spaces (like the odd cleared bookshelf space, cat tower or dresser, some ideally near windows) to help them feel more secure, especially in social areas so they can remain part of the family risk-free. - Playing Cat Calming music can be helpful, there are many different options via streaming services or online. - Using pheromones such as Feliway Classic and Feliway Friends in a favourite room, diets such as Royal Canin Calm or supplements like PAW by Blackmores Complete Calm for Cats and Zylkene can also help support a cat during this period. We recommend starting or transitioning onto products like these at least two weeks before the puppy/dog is due to arrive. Stay tuned for Part 2 next week! #fearfree #client #engagement #behaviour #advice #bonding #smallbusiness #veterinarymedicine

Fourth of July is right around the corner. Independence Day is a great day to celebrate with friends and family but our four-legged pals don't like this holiday too much. Follow Tipper's Pet Safety Tips to keep your furry family members safe. 1. Loud noises can be frightening to pets so keep them in a secure, quiet location and play music to drown out the holiday sounds. 2. If your pet gets nervous with loud noises, consult your veterinarian prior to the holiday so they can prescribe something to keep them calm during the festivities. 3. Ensure your pet has a current ID tag and microchip information on file so if they get out, they can be identified when found. 4. Barbeques are fun but human food can cause tummy troubles for pets. Avocados, onions, chocolate and alcohol can be toxic so be sure they do not have access to these human favorites. 5. Keep your pet away from barbeque grills, sparklers, fireworks and glow sticks as they can cause burns or are toxic if chewed on. Be safe! #fourthofjuly #petsafety

I've talked about Rogue Pet Science, LLC a lot and their owners. One owner is Blake Jackson and he has stood by me since day 1 of WarHawk PTSD Service Dogs. Lacey is a better and healthier dog thanks to their constant care packages. But here is what is better, when you, #WarHawkNation, use WARDOG10 at checkout, not only do you get a discount, we get a percentage of the sale. To recap... 1. Rogue Pet Science is the authority in pet nutrition. 2. Discount WARDOG10 3. They support WarHawk and #WarHawkNation Doesn't get any better than that. https://lnkd.in/eveWZqj
