Affiliate disclosure

Transparency matters to us. Here is a straightforward explanation of how affiliate links work on this site and what it means for you.

Amazon Associates

Social Paw participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. This is an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.

When you click a link to Amazon on this site and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission. The price you pay is the same regardless of whether you use our link. The commission comes from Amazon's side of the transaction, not from any markup we add.

Our Amazon tag is socialpaw-20. You will see it in the URL of any Amazon link on this site.

Chewy creator program

Social Paw also participates in Chewy's creator program. We have a curated storefront at chewpanions.chewy.com/2ff6bd1d53f where we feature pet products we like. If you shop through that link, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.

Every Chewy "Shop on Chewy" button on this site points to that same storefront. We do not fabricate individual product links.

Our recommendations are honest

We only recommend products we have actually used, tested with client pets, or feel genuinely confident about. Affiliate commissions do not change what makes our list. If something does not hold up or we do not trust it, it does not go on the page. Full stop.

The small income from affiliate links helps cover the cost of running this site, which lets us keep putting real information out there for pet owners in north Austin. We appreciate it when you shop through our links, but there is never any pressure.

FTC compliance

The U.S. Federal Trade Commission requires that websites disclose material connections to companies whose products they promote. This page is that disclosure. We also include a short note at the top of our recommended products page so the relationship is clear before you click anything.

Questions

If you have questions about any product we recommend or how our affiliate relationships work, we are happy to answer them. Reach us at {{EMAIL}} or {{PHONE}}.
