Hi there! I’m Martha Spencer, the writer and creator behind DogBitesOhio. This blog is a reflection of my personal experiences and knowledge as a lifelong dog mom, and I want to ensure you know what to expect from the content I share here.
Transparency, authenticity, and trust are at the core of everything I do.
1. My Commitment to You
At DogBitesOhio, my goal is to provide content that’s helpful, accurate, and rooted in real-life experiences. I share tips, advice, and stories that have worked for me and my dogs, but I also recognize that every dog is unique, and what works for one may not work for another.
I encourage readers to use my blog as a guide, not a replacement for professional veterinary advice.
2. Content Creation
All the content on this blog is written by me, based on my personal knowledge and experiences. I do extensive research when needed to ensure the information I share is reliable and beneficial.
However, I always strive to keep my writing approachable, relatable, and easy to understand, because I know how overwhelming dog ownership can sometimes feel.
3. Honesty and Integrity
I only recommend products, services, or practices that I truly believe in and have either used myself or thoroughly researched.
If I ever collaborate with a brand or feature sponsored content, I will disclose it clearly to you. Maintaining your trust is more important to me than anything else.
4. Feedback and Updates
I know there’s always more to learn, even after years of owning dogs. If you notice something in my content that could be updated or improved, I welcome your feedback!
I aim to keep my blog up-to-date and relevant so it can remain a valuable resource for all dog lovers.
5. Respectful Community
DogBitesOhio is a space for dog lovers to come together, share ideas, and support one another. I encourage open and respectful discussions in the comments section and on social media.
Hateful or inappropriate comments will not be tolerated, I’m all about creating a positive, welcoming environment for everyone.
6. Veterinary Disclaimer
While I strive to provide practical and informed advice, I’m not a veterinarian. If your dog has a serious health issue, behavioral concern, or emergency, please consult a licensed professional.
The information on DogBitesOhio is intended to complement, not replace, professional veterinary advice.
7. Staying True to My Mission
DogBitesOhio exists to celebrate the joys and challenges of dog ownership and to support you on your journey as a dog parent.
Every piece of content I publish reflects my dedication to this mission, and I hope it resonates with you and your furry friends.
