Royal Canin Obesity Management is formulated to assist overweight and obese dogs to lose weight. It also assists in weight management for dogs who are prone to weight gain.

As with humans, obesity is a growing issue for our pets. A survey conducted in the US in 2011 found that over half of all dogs and cats are currently overweight or obese. Although they may look cute and cuddly, overweight pets are at risk of many potential health problems and are likely to be very uncomfortable and have reduced lifespans.

Health Problems Associated with Obesity in Pets:

• Arthritis
• Heart disease
• Diabetes
• Suppression of the immune system
• Breathing problems
• Skin problems
• Reduced lifespan

If you are concerned about your pets weight, ask your veterinarian for advice. They can calculate your pets ideal weight and work with you to formulate a feeding program to help them successfully lose weight and keep it off for life.

Royal Canin Obesity Management is a low calorie diet with reduced fat and carbohydrates to aid in weight loss. It contains high levels of protein to decrease the loss of muscle during weight loss, increase palatability and help your pet to feel full. Added l-carnitine also helps to encourage your pets metabolism to burn fat and preserve lean muscle mass. Obesity Management is enriched with essential nutrients including vitamins and minerals to compensate for the energy restriction used during your pets weight loss program. As osteoarthritis is a common among pets who are overweight or obese, Obesity Management contains glucosamine and chondroitin to support joint health. It also contains essential fatty acids and trace elements like zinc and copper to help maintain a healthy skin and coat.
