Nutrition Guidance at Happy Tails Pet Clinic Indore

Happy Tails Pet Clinic · Indore

Food is medicine for many pet conditions — from obesity and allergies to kidney disease and sensitive stomachs. Good nutrition also supports shiny coats, steady energy, and healthier ageing.

Dr. Rashmi Khandelwal helps Indore pet parents cut through marketing noise. We look at current food, treats, body condition, and medical history before recommending practical changes you can actually maintain.

Whether you feed commercial diets, home-cooked meals (under guidance), or need a transition plan, we focus on safety, balance, and results you can measure.

Crash diets and sudden food swaps often backfire. We pace transitions, set weigh-in checkpoints, and adjust when life (or picky appetites) get in the way.

Ideal for

  • Overweight or underweight pets
  • Puppy & kitten growth feeding
  • Senior diet transitions
  • Food sensitivity concerns
  • Medical diet support needs

Frequently asked questions

Can you recommend food brands?

We recommend based on your pet’s needs and what is available locally — not sponsored lists. Quality, digestibility, and fit matter more than packaging.

Is home-cooked food okay?

It can be, when balanced correctly. Incomplete home diets can cause long-term deficiencies, so guidance is important.

How fast should my pet lose weight?

Slow and steady is safer. Rapid loss can be risky — we set realistic weekly targets and adjust with weigh-ins.

My pet is a picky eater. Can you help?

Yes. We look for medical causes first, then work on feeding routines, food texture, and gradual changes that stick.

Bring a photo of your current food label and a rough treat list — that five-minute prep makes the consult far more precise.
