Our Editorial Principles
One Dog Training aims to publish content that is:
- useful and clearly written;
- accurate at the time of publication;
- focused on the welfare of dogs and their owners;
- independent of undisclosed commercial influence;
- based on reputable information and realistic experience;
- clear about limitations and uncertainty.
Sources
Where a topic requires factual or specialist support, we aim to use reliable sources such as:
- veterinary organisations;
- animal welfare charities;
- government publications;
- peer-reviewed research;
- recognised professional bodies;
- product manufacturers for technical specifications.
Commercial claims are not automatically treated as independent evidence.
Medical and Behavioural Content
Content involving health, nutrition or serious behaviour should receive additional editorial review.
We do not intentionally publish advice that contradicts established veterinary or animal welfare guidance.
Artificial Intelligence and Digital Tools
Digital tools may assist with research organisation, outlines, language correction or editing.
They do not replace editorial responsibility. Every article must be checked and approved by a human editor before publication.
AI-generated text, images or information must not be presented as first-hand testing, professional experience or an actual event when this is not true.
Product Reviews
We state whether a product was personally tested.
When direct testing did not take place, an article may compare publicly available specifications, verified user considerations and suitability criteria. It must not imply first-hand use.
Commercial Independence
Advertisers and affiliate partners do not receive the right to approve independent editorial conclusions.
Sponsored content will be identified clearly.
Corrections
Readers may report errors to )desk@onedogtraining.co.uk(.
We review credible correction requests and update material errors as soon as reasonably possible. Significant changes may be identified in the article or reflected in its updated date.
Minor spelling, formatting and clarity changes may be made without a separate correction notice.
Article Dates
Articles should display:
- the original publication date;
- the latest meaningful update date, where applicable;
- the author or responsible editorial team.
Dates should not be changed solely to make unchanged content appear recent.
