Pet Nutrition at Vet HQ: Balanced Diets for Darlinghurst and Double Bay Pets

Many vets in the area recommend quality Australian-made brands like Royal Canin, Hill’s, and Prime100. These are known for good ingredients, balanced nutrition, and life-stage formulas.

Raw diets can work, but Vet HQ advises being careful; make sure the food is balanced, safe, and handled hygienically. We also suggest discussing raw diet options during a consult.

Slowly, over 7-10 days. Mix in a little of the new food with the old, gradually increasing the new amount. This helps avoid tummy upsets.

Dogs carrying extra weight may need lower-calorie diets, controlled treats, and portion monitoring. We suggest weight control diets with good protein and fiber.

We recommend diets with novel proteins (like kangaroo or duck), limited ingredients, or hydrolysed proteins. We often prescribe these under vet supervision to avoid worsening allergies.
