With hundreds of pet foods to choose from — and plenty of clever marketing behind them — choosing the right diet for your pet isn’t always as simple as reading the ingredient list.
Not every pet food is backed by feeding trials, nutritional research or rigorous quality control. Trends like grain-free, boutique and specialty diets can sound healthier, but what’s popular isn’t necessarily what’s nutritionally best for your pet.
At Lakeshore, we believe good nutrition should be based on quality ingredients, proven nutritional value and science — not marketing trends.
We primarily carry Purina and Hill’s diets in our clinic, and that choice was made carefully.
Dr. Wilson has personally visited the highly controlled research and manufacturing facilities behind these diets. Seeing firsthand the research, quality control and nutritional expertise that goes into their foods is one of the reasons we’ve chosen them as our primary in-clinic brands.
But nutrition isn’t one-size-fits-all — and neither is the brand that’s right for every pet.
Our online store offers additional veterinary diet options, and we can special order other brands, including Royal Canin and Rayne, when they’re a better fit for an individual patient.
Our team receives ongoing nutrition training so we can help you choose a diet based on your pet’s age, lifestyle, health needs and budget.
For healthy pets, we carry quality everyday diets designed to provide complete, balanced nutrition through different life stages.
We also carry prescription therapeutic diets that can play an important role in managing conditions such as:
Nutrition can be an important part of your pet’s treatment plan — and choosing the right diet can make a meaningful difference.
Even the best food isn’t much help if your pet refuses to eat it!
The diets we carry are guaranteed for palatability. If your pet doesn’t like their new food, return it to us and we’ll refund it and help you find another option.
Order your pet’s food through our online store for lower online pricing, AutoOrder savings, refill reminders and convenient home delivery.
