Nutrition and behaviour top list for dog owners seeking advice
Behaviour, nutrition, and puppy advice are the top three reasons pet owners have sought veterinary nurse advice this year, new research reveals.
The research from digital vet care app Joii Pet Care shows that in each month of the year, those same three advice areas – nutritional advice, training and behaviour advice and puppy advice – remained at the top of the list.
Emma Marshall, Head Nurse at Joii Pet Care, said: “This indicates to us that pet owners have a stable focus on caring for the long-term health and wellbeing of their animals.
“In particular, it’s reassuring to know that people are taking on board professional nutrition and behaviour advice because this establishes a really good basis for healthy, happy pets to lead fulfilled lives.”
Next on the nurse consultation list is the weight clinic – a Joii Pet Care vet nurse programme helping owners to improve the health of animals by shedding pounds. Other reasons owners reached out include advice about skin problems and fleas/ticks.
