The full tour

How ThePawcess runs
your dog's trial.

An elimination trial is the gold-standard way to find a food allergy — and the easiest protocol in the world to ruin. Here's the machinery that gets you from the first itch to a named trigger, phase by phase.

The protocol, run by AI

Three phases.
One 8–12 week climb.

A real clinical sequence — not a checklist of tips. ThePawcess's AI flies you through each phase in order, and won't let you skip ahead.

Days 0–3
01

Baseline

Log current food, symptoms, and severity — so there's an honest starting line to measure every change against.

Days 4–56
02

Elimination

One novel diet, nothing else, for the long strict stretch. Describe the day in your own words and AI logs it — plus a live AI check the moment a treat or chew threatens to break the trial.

Days 57–84
03

Reintroduction

Add one ingredient at a time on a guided schedule. Watch for the symptom that returns — and AI ranks the likely trigger by how strongly it correlates.

What no logger does — powered by AI

AI doesn't just record the trial — it protects it.

The difference

AI slip protection

Snap a photo of any treat, chew, or flavored med and AI checks it against your dog's trial — GO, STOP, or reset-risk — before it happens, then remembers every food it sees for life.

AI daily log

Type “gave a dental chew, itchier tonight” and AI turns it into a structured entry — with “same as yesterday” so logging never becomes the thing you skip.

Reintroduction scheduler

One ingredient at a time, paced correctly, so a returning symptom points to a single, named cause — not a guess.

Symptom & food overlay

See itch, ears, stool, and meals on one timeline. The correlation you've been trying to feel becomes something you can see.

AI vet report

An AI-written one-page summary with a compliance score, confidence-labelled triggers, and flagged exposures — the data a vet can act on. It never diagnoses.

Household Guard

The whole household, on protocol.

Print one QR card for the fridge. Anyone — grandma, the kids, the dog-walker — points a phone camera at it, snaps the treat in question, and gets a plain GO or STOP for your dog's exact trial. No app to install, no account to make, no lecture to give. Most trials aren't broken by you; this is how you protect the other 90% of the risk.

Cupboard Audit · Day 0

Every saboteur benched before day one.

Before the trial starts, you photograph every treat jar, chew bag and flavored med in the house. AI reads every label against your dog's exclusion list, flags the ones that would quietly break the trial, and builds your safe list — so the slip that usually surfaces in week three never gets the chance to exist.

Flare Forensics

A ranked suspect list for every flare.

Food reactions show up 1–7 days after the cause — too far back for anyone's memory. When itch spikes, AI re-reads your last week of logs — meals, treats, meds, even the new shampoo — and ranks every suspect by how squarely it sits in that reaction window. You stop guessing and start watching the right thing.

AI vet report

Walk in with a chart, not a story.

Vets distrust “he seemed itchy on Tuesday.” An AI compliance-scored report changes the conversation — and gets your dog an answer faster.
