How nutrition can affect your dog’s health

Learn how diet can impact your dog’s health and how to help.

Vomiting and/or diarrhea

If your dog has a sensitive stomach and tends to vomit frequently or if their stools are more of a mush pile than an easily picked up log, the diet may be playing a role in their less than optimal gastrointestinal tract. Meet with a Dutch veterinarian to get diet recommendations and discuss the various options to reset their GI tract.

Obesity

It’s estimated that 60% of dogs are overweight or obese. Chronic obesity leads to a variety of health conditions and a lifetime study of labs found that dogs that were overweight had a shorter life by almost 2 years. Schedule an online vet visit with Dutch to speak with a vet if your pet is overweight. Dutch vets will create a treatment plan to shed those pounds and keep your dog in peak condition.

Underweight

While some dogs struggle with too much weight, others can have the opposite problem. If your dog is struggling to put on weight, there may be underlying issues at play that need to be addressed — from an inability to absorb the nutrients to chronic intestinal parasites. Schedule an online vet visit with Dutch to discuss the reasons and options for helping your pet achieve a healthy weight.

Picky eater

If your dog turns their nose up to their food regularly, our vets may be able to help determine if this is a behavioral issue or if there could be an underlying reason why your pet is so picky. They can also give you strategies to make meal time more consistent. Schedule your Dutch online vet visit today.

Confused about pet foods?

With all of the marketing, opinions, and pet food fads that exist, it’s hard to know what to believe and what’s real. Cut through all of the hype and speak with a Dutch vet who can guide you through the maze of pet food marketing.

When booking a video call with a vet, you'll be asked a few questions about your pet’s health issue. Depending on the issue, you may also be asked to fill out a longer questionnaire about their symptoms and share photographs of them so our veterinarians can better understand what’s going on. You’ll then pick an appointment time that works best for you.

During your video call, one of our licensed veterinarians will talk to you about the symptoms your pet is experiencing, ask you questions, review your pet’s medical history if you’ve provided it, and answer any questions you have. The vet will ask to see your pet and their environment. And they may ask you to perform some simple checks on them if needed.

After your video call, the vet will send you a message with a custom treatment plan to help your pet feel better, including a link to buy any recommended prescription or over-the-counter medications. Place your order and we’ll ship it free.

Our vets can provide care and prescriptions for more than 150 issues — and over 90% of cases can be treated virtually. 

The vet can diagnose your pet based on your description of their symptoms, their medical history, seeing them during your video call, and, if needed, through uploaded photos and videos. They may ask you to do a few simple checks during the call. We also offer a number of at-home lab test kits for dogs and cats.

The health and safety of pets is our top priority. In the rare case that a vet determines a pet needs to go to a local clinic, they’ll provide a referral and offer advice on how to care for them until they can be seen. 

Some things that require in-person care include emergencies, wounds that need stitches, and issues that require blood work, imaging (X-rays or ultrasounds), or surgery.

Our vets are always available for second opinions and follow-up care after in-person vet visits — so you don’t have to navigate health issues alone.
