For veterinarians
Your clients leave the exam room, then Google.
Give them somewhere good to land. KibbleLab's scoring is grounded in published veterinary science, and the vet workspace lets you search it by the triggers you are avoiding, then send the shortlist to your client before they get home.
Independent by design
Determined by science, not money.
Every food is scored the same way and shown to everyone, whether or not it earns us a commission. Scores, calorie targets, and portions come from published veterinary nutrition science, and we show the work so you can check it. That is the whole point: a tool you can trust enough to put in front of a client.
What the numbers are built on
- WSAVA global nutrition guidelines and selection criteria
- AAFCO nutrient profiles and adequacy statements
- NRC (2006) energy equations and the 2021 AAHA guidelines
- The 9-point body condition score (Laflamme, 1997)
- The Merck Veterinary Manual
- Live U.S. FDA recall records, cited to source
Every number links back to its source. Read the full methodology .
The case file
A case file, not a screenshot.
Your client does the between-visit legwork in KibbleLab and walks in with a clean, printable report. It gathers the evidence and hands the interpretation to you, so the conversation starts from a shared record instead of a half-remembered diet history.
What it contains
- Weight and body-condition history, with the trend line
- Every elimination trial and its outcome, plus the avoid list
- Confirmed and suspected triggers from the findings
- Health flags, medications, and owner notes

The vet workspace
Answer the food question before they leave.
A workspace built for the exam room, not for pet owners: no pet profiles to fill in, no trials to run, no upsells. Search, shortlist, send.
Search by what you're avoiding
Set the species, the life stage, and the triggers you're steering around. Pick a whole family and the search follows it through the ingredient graph to its derivatives, not just the exact word on the label. Prescription diets are filtered out by default, since the usual question is what is available over the counter. No result caps and no monthly search limit.
Send the shortlist to your client
Tick the foods worth trying, add a note, and email the list from the visit. Your client opens a plain web page with your name and practice on it and the triggers you were avoiding spelled out. Nothing for them to install, and no KibbleLab account required to read it.
Saved cases for the recheck
Name a case and it keeps the triggers and refinements you set. Six weeks later you open it instead of rebuilding it from memory, and it re-runs against today's catalog, recalls and all.
It claims only what a label says
Results and client lists say the same thing: these are foods that don't list the trigger on the label. A label can't rule out cross-contamination, so anything critical stays your call. The tool narrows the field; the clinical judgment is yours.
A tool that always defers to you.
KibbleLab gathers evidence and surfaces a hypothesis. It never diagnoses, never treats, and never overrides a veterinarian. Every trial ends with the same instruction to the owner: confirm it with your vet. It makes the appointment easier and leaves the medicine to you.
Common questions
Questions from the exam room.
How do I get access to the vet workspace?
Request it on this page. Every request is read by a person, and invites go out in small batches so support keeps pace with the vets already using it. When yours is approved you get an email to set a password, then one short screen for your practice, credential, and state. There is no pet profile to build and no wizard to sit through.
Will KibbleLab diagnose or treat my patients?
No. KibbleLab is informational and is not a substitute for veterinary care. It gathers evidence and surfaces a hypothesis, then defers every diagnosis and treatment decision to you. Each food trial ends with the same instruction to the owner: confirm it with your veterinarian.
Does the search tell me a food is safe for a sensitive patient?
No, and it does not say so anywhere. It returns foods that do not list the trigger on the label, and the client list says the same. A label cannot rule out cross-contamination or shared equipment, so anything critical stays your clinical call. The workspace narrows the field; the judgment is yours.
Do my clients need a KibbleLab account to open the list I send?
No. The list opens as a plain web page with your name and practice on it, the foods you picked, and the triggers you were avoiding. There is nothing to install and no account to create. Tracking the food trial in KibbleLab is offered on that page, but it is entirely optional.
Can a brand pay for a higher score?
No. No one can pay for a higher score. Every food is scored the same way and shown to everyone, whether or not it earns us a commission.
What are the scores based on?
Published veterinary nutrition science: WSAVA global nutrition guidelines, AAFCO nutrient profiles, the NRC (2006) energy equations, the 2021 AAHA guidelines, the 9-point body condition score (Laflamme, 1997), and the Merck Veterinary Manual, alongside live U.S. FDA recall records. Every number links back to its source. See the full methodology
What does my client bring to the appointment?
A clean, printable report. Your client does the between-visit legwork in KibbleLab and walks in with a structured case file: their pet's diet history and what they observed at home, so the conversation starts from a shared record.
Is KibbleLab affiliated with WSAVA or AAFCO?
No. KibbleLab is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or certified by WSAVA or AAFCO. We reference these published standards; we do not represent them.
Disclaimers
KibbleLab is informational, and is not a substitute for veterinary care. Pet owners use it to organize what they observe at home and bring it to their veterinarian. The workspace narrows a catalog by what is printed on a label. It does not diagnose, and it does not stand in for your clinical judgment.
KibbleLab is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or certified by WSAVA or AAFCO. We reference these standards; we do not represent them.
