How do we advise clients about feeding their pets?

14 Nov 2024
BVA Congress
Debate , Nutrition

The wide range of options in the types of food available has made discussions about appropriate diet choices for cats and dogs a complicated and sometimes contentious process. Join Sally Everitt, who recently chaired the BVA’s Companion Animal Feeding Working Group, Georgia Woods-Lee of the Royal Canin Weight Management Clinic, University of Liverpool, and Jo White, Co-Director, Human Behaviour Change for Life (HBCL) to discuss how we can talk to clients about feeding their pets, what evidence we do (and do not have), and some of the potential risks and benefits of different types of diets for pets. 

Learning Outcomes
  • Understand the types of information we have (and do not have) to support our conversations with clients about diet choices for pets
  • Explore ways of working collaboratively, with compromise and understanding when discussing diet choice with pet owners
  • Tips and tools from human behavioural science in practice to build engagement, connection and trust when talking to clients about diet choices for pets
