Our Editorial Independence & Standards
Our affiliate relationships DO NOT influence our breed information or editorial content.
Breed Data Integrity
All breed characteristics, temperament information, care requirements, and health data are independently researched and maintained. Affiliate partnerships have zero influence on this core content.
Honest Recommendations
We only recommend products that we genuinely believe will benefit dogs and their owners. We do not promote products solely because they offer higher commissions.
Product Selection Criteria
Recommended products are selected based on:
- Breed-specific needs (size, energy level, grooming requirements)
- Product quality and customer reviews
- Relevance to the breed's characteristics
- Value for money
No "Pay-to-Play"
Brands cannot pay us to feature their products or influence our breed information. All product recommendations are merit-based.

- •The retailer may place cookies on your device to track the referral
