Line by line
How do I read each line of the panel?
AAFCO rules set the format. A guaranteed analysis lists the minimum crude protein and fat and the maximum fiber and moisture (AAFCO, Reading labels). "Crude" refers to the lab method, not the quality.
| Line | Label value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Crude Protein (Min) | 0% | No protein, so no meat or plant protein inside |
| Crude Fat (Min) | 100% | The liquid is all fat, which matches an oil |
| Crude Fiber (Max) | 0% | No plant fiber |
| Moisture (Max) | <0.1% | Almost no water, so it is not a water-based tincture |
| ESS60®* | 1.6 mg | The C60 content per serving, about 0.8 mg per mL |
| Calorie content | 16.2 kcal ME | Energy your dog can use from one serving |
Crude fat
What does 100% crude fat mean?
It means the product is essentially all fat. Olive oil is a fat, and the ESS60 and flavor are too small to change the number.
A minimum of 100% can look odd, since nothing can be more than 100%. It is the maker's way of saying the bottle holds oil and nothing else of substance. For your dog, it means each serving adds about 1.8 g of fat to the day. The olive oil profile covers what kind of fat that is.
The footnote
What does the asterisk next to ESS60 mean?
The asterisk sends you to a footnote: "* Not recognized as an essential nutrient by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles." Substances outside the AAFCO nutrient profiles must carry that note (AAFCO, Reading labels).
Dogs have no known dietary need for ESS60. The footnote is not a warning and not a safety finding. It simply says ESS60 is not a nutrient in the way protein or zinc is.
For what is known about ESS60 itself, read the ESS60 research profile.
Calorie math
How are the 16.2 calories per serving worked out?
The label gives 8,100 kcal ME per kg. Multiply by 0.002 kg and you get 16.2 kcal, so the math treats one 2 mL serving as 2 g.
Olive oil is a little lighter than water, so 2 mL weighs closer to 1.8 g. That would put a serving nearer 15 kcal. The difference is small either way. The bars below show what 16.2 kcal means for dogs of different sizes.
Gaps
What is missing from the Mighty K9 label panel?
Three things a careful owner looks for are not on the panel image. None is unusual for a small pet supplement, but each is worth knowing.
Lot number
No lot code appears on the panel image. The seller reference is MK-26/TH-4089; call +1 (302) 200-3480 to match it to an order.
Expiry date
No best-by date is shown. Note the day you open each bottle and keep it cool and dark.
Serving by weight
The panel gives one 2 mL serving for every dog. Ask your vet about toy dogs or dogs on a diet.
If you ever need to report a problem to the FDA, they ask for the lot number and best-by date (FDA, Report a pet product). Keep the bottle and your order email. The testing and quality page covers the CoA reference.
Compare
How is a Guaranteed Analysis different from a Supplement Facts panel?
Human supplements use a Supplement Facts panel under the 1994 supplement law. Pet supplements are not covered by that law, so they use the animal feed format instead (AAFCO, Food and drugs) (FDA, Pet food rules).
| Point | Guaranteed Analysis | Supplement Facts |
|---|---|---|
| Rule set | Animal feed rules, AAFCO format | Human dietary supplement law |
| Main numbers | Min protein and fat, max fiber and moisture | Amount per serving and % Daily Value |
| Calories | kcal ME per kg and per serving | Calories per serving |
| Non-nutrients | Asterisk: not an essential nutrient | Dagger: Daily Value not established |

FAQ
Mighty K9 label FAQ
What is the guaranteed analysis of Mighty K9?
Per 2 mL serving: crude protein 0% minimum, crude fat 100% minimum, crude fiber 0% maximum, moisture under 0.1% maximum, and ESS60 1.6 mg. The calories work out to 8,100 kcal ME per kg, or 16.2 kcal per serving. The bottle holds 30 servings.
Why does Mighty K9 say 100% crude fat?
Because the liquid is oil. Olive oil is pure fat, and the ESS60 and bacon flavor are too small to move the number. The label's way of saying it is a 100% minimum, which simply confirms there is no protein, fiber or water to speak of.
What does ME mean on a dog supplement label?
ME stands for metabolizable energy. It is the share of calories your dog's body can actually use after digestion. Mighty K9 lists 16.2 kcal ME per 2 mL serving, the figure to count toward your dog's daily calories.
Is ESS60 a nutrient for dogs?
No. The label footnote says ESS60 is not recognized as an essential nutrient by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles. Dogs have no known need for it in their diet. The footnote is a standard label rule, not a safety warning.
Where is the lot number on Mighty K9?
No lot number shows on the label panel image. The seller lists reference code MK-26/TH-4089, which is not lab proof. To match a bottle to your order, call the order desk at +1 (302) 200-3480 with your order ID.
Does Mighty K9 have an expiration date?
No expiry date appears on the panel image. Store the bottle cool and dark, keep the cap tight, and note the day you open it. At 2 mL a day a bottle lasts 30 days. Stop using oil that smells sharp or stale.
