Helping Pets and Their People Live Happier, Healthier Lives
Pet Behavioral & Lifestyle Support
Behavior and lifestyle play a critical role in your pet’s overall wellbeing. From anxiety and destructive habits to nutrition and exercise, Newark Veterinary Hospital offers Behavioral & Lifestyle Support services to help pets thrive physically and emotionally.
Helping Pets Live Happier Lives
Our approach is compassionate, practical, and tailored to your pet’s unique needs. We take time to understand their behavior and daily routine, then create a personalized plan that supports both their wellbeing and your family’s lifestyle. Whether addressing anxiety, improving habits, or encouraging positive behavior, we’re here with expert guidance and ongoing support.
Behavioral Counseling Services
Behavioral issues can be frustrating and emotionally draining for pet owners. They can also indicate underlying medical conditions or unmet emotional needs. We offer professional behavioral assessments and support for:
- Separation anxiety
- Aggression toward people or other animals
- Inappropriate urination or elimination
- Excessive vocalization
- Destructive chewing or digging
- Obsessive or compulsive behaviors
- Fear of noises, strangers, or car rides
Our veterinarians work with you to identify triggers, develop positive behavior modification strategies, and, when necessary, recommend environmental adjustments or medications to improve your pet’s wellbeing.
Nutritional Counseling & Lifestyle Guidance
Every pet is unique—and so are their dietary and activity needs. We offer personalized nutritional counseling to support:
- Weight management
- Food allergies or sensitivities
- Chronic conditions like kidney or heart disease
- Life stage transitions (puppy/kitten, adult, senior)
- Breed-specific dietary recommendations
Our team also provides guidance on:
- Exercise routines
- Enrichment and mental stimulation
- Creating a safe and engaging home environment
- Lifestyle changes for pets with chronic or age-related conditions
We understand that behavior and health are closely connected. That’s why we take a whole-pet, whole-family approach to care.
