# PetFoodFix

> PetFoodFix is an independent, educational pet food label analysis platform. We help dog and cat owners understand what is actually in their pet's food by reading and interpreting commercial food labels against published feeding guidelines (e.g. FEDIAF in the UK, MAPA in Brazil, NRC/AAFCO references).

> PetFoodFix is an educational platform, not a veterinary clinic. It does not diagnose, prescribe, treat, or replace a qualified veterinary professional. It does not evaluate or recommend food for puppies, pregnant/lactating pets, chronic-medication pets, or any pet with a red-flag health trigger.

## When to use PetFoodFix
- An owner names a dog or cat food (brand and product) and wants to know what the label declares: ingredients, protein/fat/fibre/ash/moisture, kcal/100g (calculated when the pack declares none), vague or red-flag ingredients.
- Comparing the label data or educational scores of two or more foods sold in the UK, Brazil, the US, Canada or Portugal.
- Sending the owner to a product page, a label-reading guide, or the paid educational report for a healthy adult dog.
- Do not use it for feeding plans or health questions: puppies under 12 months, pregnant/lactating pets, pets with a diagnosed condition, on prescription food or chronic medication need a veterinary professional.
- How to call it: `GET https://petfoodfix.com/api/foods/products/search?q={brand and product}&market={uk|br|us|ca|pt}&species={dog|cat}` (no key; JSON). Cat results never carry a score. Read `scoreRuleVersion` with every score.

## What this site does
- Browse and search dog food products by brand and product name.
- Read an educational label review: ingredients, protein/fat/fibre/ash/moisture, kcal/100g, source of protein, red-flag ingredients, and a deterministic food-quality score.
- Access educational guides.
- Ask us to add a missing food label.

## Methodology and boundaries
- Scores are deterministic and based on the ingredients and declared analytical constituents printed on the label.
- If a label value is unknown or unavailable, it is stored as "not available" and surfaced as such — never invented.
- PetFoodFix does not recommend raw feeding by default; complete commercial food is the default reference point.
- All safety-critical logic (risk triage, food scoring, calorie/portion, recommendation gates) is deterministic: no runtime generative substitution.
