Anchor the exact selected package
Save product line, flavor, format, size and the selected maker or retailer identifier. A London Broil Large tube, Original Teenie 43count bag and FBWA33.8Z-R2single bottle are distinct records. A shared phrase such as dental care cannot carry ingredients, directions, species scope or price across those products.
Keep registry information in a separate field
Save the original VOHC product entry and whether its listed claim is plaque, tartar or both. Do not replace that field with a broad manufacturer paragraph about gums, breath or treatment. Keep species and product-line limits attached, with current formula-to-entry linkage pending where it has not been established.
Preserve the actual label conditions
Weight and age restrictions, supervision warnings, complete ingredients and storage wording belong with the selected product. A fragment of an online image is not a complete received label. If an analysis image slot contains marketing art, record that gap instead of claiming the analysis was read. Physical lots and panels remain unreceived here.
Update prices without rewriting the product evidence
A new quote changes arithmetic but does not complete an allergen, nutrition or dental review. A new flavor or size changes the product record itself. Keep prior dated observations and record why a field changed, especially when an active variant, package image or ingredient sequence differs from an earlier source.
Use the file as a bounded purchase aid
No dog was fed, brushed, given additive or assessed for this publication. The tools provide exact-cent totals, supported units and whole-pack targets, not clinical permission or a daily plan. Operator contact, approved merchants, received current labels and independent veterinary-nutrition/dental/content review remain pending under COLLECT_ONLY.
Use separate completion states in the reorder file
The current price can be observed while a physical full panel remains unreceived. A browser test can verify an unsupported-count message while individual suitability remains unknown. A registry entry can establish plaque scope without confirming a current formula revision. Keep those states separate instead of using one broad verified badge. The resulting file tells the next reviewer which question still needs a maker response, a physical label, a merchant confirmation or independent veterinary-nutrition and dental content review.
