# What is a Dog Food Fix report?
PetFoodFix content is educational and does not diagnose or treat illness. If your dog is unwell, has a diagnosed condition, is under 12 months old, is pregnant or lactating, is on a prescription diet or chronic medication, or has vomiting, diarrhoea, blood in stool, collapse, severe pain, breathing difficulty, refusal to eat for more than 24 hours, marked weight loss, severe itching, or suspected poisoning, contact your vet before changing food.
## Introduction
A Dog Food Fix report is a one-off, £14.90 educational analysis of your dog's current food. It helps you understand the label, confirms a safe daily portion, flags concerns in plain English, and helps you know whether to keep, adjust, compare, or change the food safely.
## What the report includes
- **Food quality score (0–100):** Based on the Dog Food Fix Quality Framework. Evaluates protein quality, naturalness, transparency, and completeness.
- **Portion and calorie estimate:** A daily calorie estimate and gram recommendation tailored to your dog's weight, body condition, age, and activity.
- **Label red flags:** Plain-English warnings about vague ingredients, artificial colours, protein source clarity, and formulation concerns.
- **Understand your next steps:** Know whether to keep the food, adjust the routine, compare with other options, or change gradually.
- **Safe transition guidance:** A safe 7–14 day plan for introducing a new food gradually, if a change is needed.
- **Vet-check warnings:** Where the dog's profile or symptoms suggest a vet consultation is the safer next step.
