3. Content Creation Process
a) Research & Fact-Checking
All articles start with thorough research. We use trusted sources, including veterinary associations, academic papers, and expert interviews. Before publishing, our content is fact-checked to ensure accuracy.
b) Writing & Editing
Our writers focus on delivering clear, well-structured content that is easy to digest. Editors then review the work for grammar, readability, and factual consistency.
c) Review & Approval
Before any article goes live, it undergoes a final quality check. This includes verifying sources, ensuring readability, and confirming that the information aligns with our editorial standards.
4. Ethical Guidelines
🚫 No Misinformation – We do not publish misleading or false claims. Every statement is backed by reputable sources.
🚫 No AI-Generated Misinformation – While AI tools may assist in content research, all articles are reviewed and written with human oversight to maintain quality and accuracy.
🚫 No Plagiarism – We create original content and give proper credit when referencing studies, quotes, or expert opinions.
🚫 No Sponsored Bias – We maintain editorial independence. If we feature products or services, we do so based on genuine research, not paid sponsorships.
