Welcome to K9 NutriLab
Please review and accept before using the app.
K9 NutriLab helps you estimate nutrient content and build dog food recipes based on your inputs.
It uses reference targets from organizations such as AAFCO for comparison, but is not affiliated with or endorsed by them.
All calculations depend on the accuracy of the ingredients and supplement products you select, and this tool does not replace veterinary guidance.
You are responsible for reviewing your formulation and deciding how to use it. Consider introducing dietary changes gradually and monitor your petโs response.
If your dog has medical conditions or special dietary needs, consult your veterinarian before use.
How to use K9 NutriLab
Enter your dogโs details on the next screens.
K9 NutriLab will use this information to estimate nutrient needs and help you build recipes based on your dogโs inputs.
You can:
build recipes from scratch using your own ingredients
use preset recipes and adjust them based on what you have on hand
add or swap ingredients while viewing how they affect nutrient totals
Supplements
The app will highlight nutrient gaps and show food-based adjustments where possible.
If needed, it will also calculate supplement amounts based on the products you have selected.
For best accuracy:
use a kitchen scale for main ingredients
use a precision gram scale (0.1 g accuracy) for supplements
Supplement verification
Before you start, youโll verify the supplement products you use.
K9 NutriLab calculates supplement amounts based on the exact products you select. Verification allows the calculator to use the correct nutrient composition.
Calculations are based on your inputs and selected products. Review before use.
You wonโt be able to start recipes until supplement verification is complete.
