Editorial Policy

Our Editorial Principles We publish clear, evidence‑based guidance to help you choose a dog bed that fits your dog and your home. Independence, accuracy, and transparency are non‑negotiable.

Independence and Integrity • No paid placements or guaranteed reviews. Brands cannot buy rankings or coverage. • Affiliate links may earn us a commission at no extra cost to you; this never influences our testing, scoring, or recommendations. • If a product underperforms, we say so—even if it’s popular.

Product Selection • We prioritize beds with verifiable materials (e.g., disclosed foam densities, CertiPUR‑US® foams where applicable), replaceable parts, and clear care instructions. • We include budget and premium options if they meet baseline safety and durability criteria. • We avoid products with undisclosed fillers, confusing sizing, or poor washability.

Testing and Evidence • Every reviewed product is evaluated against our methodology (see “How We Test”). • We capture before/after measurements, dry times, and observable wear and publish trade‑offs alongside scores. • Photos are from real‑world use whenever possible.

Corrections and Updates • If we make an error, we’ll correct it promptly and timestamp the change. • We revisit guides as brands change materials or as new long‑life options outperform existing picks.

Review Samples and Donations • When we buy products, we’ll note it. When samples are provided, we disclose it and apply the same tests. • Lightly used test items are cleaned and, when feasible, donated to shelters or rescue partners.

Conflicts of Interest • Team members do not hold financial interests in brands we review. • Contributors must disclose any potential conflicts; we reassign coverage as needed.

Community and Comments • We welcome respectful, experience‑based feedback and sizing data. • We remove spam, hate speech, promotional posts, or unsafe advice.

Medical Disclaimer We do not provide medical or veterinary advice. Our support and comfort assessments are general guidance; consult your veterinarian for health‑specific recommendations.
