Built by pet parents, for pet parents
RaisedPaw was born out of frustration with generic, unverified pet advice. We set out to build the resource we wished had existed when we got our first dog — honest, evidence-based, and completely free.
Evidence first, always
Too much pet advice on the internet is recycled, unverified, or quietly sponsored. We built a process where every claim is sourced, every guide is reviewed by a veterinary professional, and our editorial choices are never influenced by advertiser relationships.
We participate in affiliate programmes to fund our free content — but we only recommend products we'd give to our own pets. disclosure policy
All content reviewed by licensed veterinarians
Zero advertiser influence on editorial decisions
Sources cited in every health-related guide
Tools built on WSAVA-referenced formulas
Full affiliate disclosure on every page
Started in 2019
What began as a personal blog about training a hyperactive Border Collie mix grew into a trusted resource used by hundreds of thousands of pet parents worldwide.
How we work
Every claim we publish must be sourced. We cite peer-reviewed research, AAFCO guidelines, and veterinary nutrition literature — not other blog posts.
All health-related content is reviewed by a licensed veterinarian before publication and updated when clinical guidelines change.
We participate in affiliate programmes. Every partnership is disclosed clearly. Advertisers cannot pay for editorial placement or recommendations.
Our calculators use the same RER-based formulas recommended by the World Small Animal Veterinary Association (WSAVA).
