Editorial Guidelines

These are the rules the Graze Journal is written to. See who writes the site and how it makes money.

Research first

Articles are researched before they're written — veterinary and behavioral claims are checked against widely accepted guidance, not invented for SEO. When sources disagree or evidence is thin, the article says so instead of picking the more convenient answer.

Health claims are hedged, not absolute

Slow feeders and enrichment tools can help reduce risks like gulping, gas, and boredom — they don't cure anything, and no article on this site claims otherwise. Where a symptom (repeated vomiting, a distended abdomen, lethargy) needs a vet rather than a product, we say so plainly.

Affiliate links don't drive recommendations

We earn a commission on some links (see our Affiliate Disclosure), but that never decides what gets recommended. If a cheaper or DIY option is genuinely good enough, the article says that instead.

Corrections

If you spot something inaccurate or out of date, email hello@grazepet.com. We review the claim against our sources and correct the article if it's wrong — no fee, no fuss.

Freshness

Articles are revisited periodically as products, prices, or guidance change. The date shown on each article reflects when its source file was last modified.
