The Pampered Pup is dedicated to providing the most comprehensive and reliable information on all things dog-related. Our mission is to be the go-to resource for dog owners, both new and experienced, by testing and reviewing the best dog products available in the market.
Founded in 2019 as a simple blog, The Pampered Pup has evolved into a trusted source of information and guidance, thanks to the leadership of Zach Lovatt. With a passion for all things canine, Zach took over in January 2023 and transformed The Pampered Pup into a full-fledged platform dedicated to helping dog owners make informed decisions when it comes to their furry friends.
Our team of dog lovers is constantly on the lookout for the latest and greatest dog products, from nutritious dog food to GPS collars. And we don’t just review them, we test them ourselves to provide an honest and authentic evaluation of each product. We like to say, “Tested on humans for the pampered pups.”
At The Pampered Pup, we believe that every dog deserves the best. That’s why we’re committed to providing our readers with the most up-to-date information, expert insights, and valuable recommendations. Whether you’re looking for advice on feeding, grooming, or just trying to find the perfect product, we’ve got you covered.
Join us on our journey to make sure every dog is pampered, happy, and healthy.
