We need your help to improve the health and well-being of pets.

Our mission is to solve the complex challenges of pet obesity through deeper understanding and collaboration, promote evidence-based obesity and weight loss interventions, drive important research to understand the health impacts and causes of weight and obesity-related disorders in animals, and advance the discussion of pet obesity and its impact on health and the human-animal bond.
