PROGRAM SCHEDULE

Join us for a 2-hour virtual Mini Bootcamp - Precision Nutrition for Urolithiasis on Tuesday, July 21, 2026, sponsored by Purina.

Registration: Be among the first 500 participants to register and attend for free! After that, registration is $25 for the next 500 participants.

This engaging session will focus on the role of clinical nutrition in the management and prevention of urolithiasis in dogs and cats. Through an interactive, case-based approach, expert UC Davis faculty will discuss how targeted nutritional strategies can support urinary health, reduce recurrence of uroliths, and improve long-term patient outcomes.

Participants will gain practical guidance on selecting appropriate nutritional management plans and implementing dietary strategies that align with current evidence-based recommendations. Real-world clinical cases will help illustrate how nutrition can be used as a powerful tool in both treatment and prevention.

What You'll Learn:

How nutritional interventions can help with the dissolution or prevent the formation of common urolith types
Strategies for selecting and implementing appropriate therapeutic diets
Practical approaches for preventing recurrence in canine and feline patients
Tips for communicating nutritional recommendations effectively with pet owners

Attendees will also have the opportunity to ask questions and engage directly with expert UC Davis faculty, gaining practical insights that can be immediately applied in clinical practice. In addition, a Q&A session with a Purina representative will be available for attendees who have questions related to Purina products and nutrition.
