Ray Q,

Thanks for your question.

Every one of the 1000+ reviews on this website includes the following disclosure clearly and transparently posted within each article:

“… we do not accept money, gifts or samples from pet food companies in exchange for special consideration in the preparation of our reviews or ratings.

“However, we do receive a fee from Chewy.com for each purchase made as a direct result of a referral from our website. This fee is a fixed dollar amount and has nothing to do with the size of an order or the brand selected for purchase.”

Please keep in mind, Chewy is a retailer. Not a manufacturer.

We have NEVER received any money from any company that manufactures any pet food we review. So, how could there be a conflict of interest?

By the way, please also notice that there are no display ads for any pet foods anywhere on this website. We made this COSTLY decision over 9 years ago to prevent any suggestion that we have ANY conflict of interest in doing our work.

I am closing this thread because this question has already been answered transparently and conspicuously throughout our website many times over the last 9 years.

Thanks again for your interest and for being a member.
