How this work is done
Every guide attributed to this byline is researched against primary veterinary and kennel-club sources, written in plain English, and dated so you can see how current it is. Health claims are linked to their source. When the honest answer is “it depends,” that is what you will read.
What this means in practice
- Sources every health claim to named veterinary or kennel-club references
- Writes in plain English and updates guides as the evidence changes
