About DogCatCalc
We believe every pet owner, shelter worker, and preservation breeder deserves instant access to rigorous veterinary science, accurate medication dosages, and Mendelian genetic predictions—completely free, open-access, and zero paywalls.
Our Mission & Computational Philosophy
In the era of internet misinformation, inaccurate pet dosage calculations and flawed breeding predictions can lead to fatal drug toxicities or tragic developmental defects. DogCatCalc was created by an independent team of computational researchers, bioinformatics software engineers, and passionate companion animal preservation enthusiasts to bridge the gap between complex academic veterinary literature and everyday practical care.
Rather than functioning as a commercial clinic or relying on opaque black-box algorithms, our platform transcribes gold-standard peer-reviewed veterinary pharmacopeias, WSAVA nutritional guidelines, and university genetic laboratory protocols into transparent, mathematically validated digital tools accessible to everyone worldwide without cost.
Our Scientific Foundation: Primary Reference Literature
Our computational algorithms do not guess or approximate. Every calculation engine across our 650+ tools is calibrated against published, authoritative clinical veterinary literature:
Our Transparent Methodology & Editorial Process
Learn how we extract primary academic literature, calibrate allometric scaling formulas, and implement verification protocols to ensure zero fabricated calculations.
