How Futterklar works.

Editorial process

1. 01

   Define the question and scope

   Healthy adult dogs are separated from growth, reproduction, performance, disease and homemade diets.

2. 02

   Research authority sources

   Current guidelines, regulators, professional bodies and peer-reviewed references come first.

3. 03

   Check claims against evidence

   Figures, time frames and risk statements are compared with the underlying source and linked near the claim.

4. 04

   Add safety boundaries

   We check for foreseeable misuse. Individual doses, remote diagnosis and treatment instructions are excluded.

Source hierarchy

The greater the possible health consequence, the stronger the evidence standard has to be.

FEDIAF is a European pet-food industry federation. Its nutritional guidelines are an important European reference, but that institutional role remains visible whenever they are used.

Use of artificial intelligence

AI can support topic structure, initial drafting, translation and consistency checks. It is not treated as a technical source.

Technical claims must be checked against the linked authority sources. Pages are written for people and rendered with their substantive content available to browsers and crawlers. There is no special “AI ranking” markup and no guarantee that a search engine or answer system will cite a page.

Review status and limits

Current content is editorially source-checked, but it is not presented as having been reviewed by a named veterinary nutrition specialist.

We therefore do not display a “vet reviewed” badge. Health, puppy, raw-diet and recipe content would benefit from additional review by a real qualified professional whose name, credentials and review date can be published.

Funding and conflicts of interest

Editorial criteria, source assessment and safety boundaries must not depend on commissions or sponsors.

Commercial relationships are disclosed next to the affected content. Paid placement cannot purchase a ranking, free products must be disclosed, and affiliate links receive a technical sponsored attribute in addition to visible labelling.

Corrections and change history

Material corrections should be traceable, timely and never hidden behind silent rewriting.

Readers can flag a factual error, an inaccessible source or a misleading formulation. We recheck the underlying evidence, correct the page when warranted and update its modification date. Substantive changes are recorded here.
