Editorial Policy
Last updated 2026-07-01
Our editorial standards
Petof's reviews and rankings are written independently by our editorial team, based on publicly available product data such as ingredients, guaranteed analysis, form, life stage, price, and buyer rating and demand. We do not accept payment in exchange for a specific ranking, rating, or recommendation. Our goal is to give dog owners a clear, honest comparison, not to favor any one brand.
How we research and write
We do not physically test, feed, or use the products we cover; our content is based on the manufacturer's published ingredient panels, guaranteed analysis, specifications, pricing, and aggregated buyer ratings and review data. Every product page and comparison on Petof is written from these real, verifiable facts, not copied from Amazon or any retailer. If a spec is missing or unclear for a product, we leave it out rather than guess.
Not veterinary advice
Nothing on Petof is veterinary advice, and our content should not be used to diagnose, treat, or manage a health condition in your dog. Our supplement and health guides describe what a product is formulated to support, such as joint or digestive health, and are not a substitute for a professional evaluation. If your dog has a health concern, please talk to a licensed veterinarian.
Corrections and updates
Product pricing, availability, and even ingredient formulations can change after we publish a review, and we periodically revisit our pages to keep them current. If you spot outdated information or a factual error, email [email protected] and we will look into it. We would rather fix a mistake quickly than leave it standing.
Author accountability
Every guide and review on Petof is attributed to the team or writer who worked on it, listed on our About page. Our writers, including Marcus Bell on food and Dr. Lena Ortiz on supplements and health, are responsible for keeping their sections accurate and up to date. Readers can reach any of us through [email protected] with questions or concerns about a specific article.
