Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: February 2026

Adventure Dogs Guide is committed to transparency. This disclosure explains how we may earn money from the content on this website and how it affects our editorial process.

How We Make Money

Some of the links on Adventure Dogs Guide are affiliate links. This means if you click on a link and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you. These commissions help us maintain this website, continue testing gear, and keep producing quality content for dog adventurers.

Affiliate Relationships

We may have affiliate relationships with:

• Outdoor and pet gear retailers
• Amazon Services LLC Associates Program
• Chewy affiliate program
• Other outdoor equipment manufacturers and retailers

Editorial Independence

Our reviews and recommendations are based on our honest opinions and hands-on testing with our own dogs. We do not accept payment for positive reviews. Affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial content, ratings, or recommendations.

If a product isn't safe or doesn't perform well for dogs on the trail, we'll say so—even if we have an affiliate relationship with the seller. Your dog's safety and wellbeing always come first.

FTC Compliance

In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's guidelines concerning the use of endorsements and testimonials in advertising (16 CFR Part 255), we disclose that we may receive compensation for products or services mentioned on this website.

How to Identify Affiliate Links

Affiliate links on our site may be identified by:

• Explicit disclosure near the link (e.g., "affiliate link")
