Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: August 16, 2026
As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
Sport Dog Source is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.
What That Means For You
Some of the links on this site — including “View on Amazon” buttons and links inside our gear reviews — are affiliate links. If you click one of those links and make a purchase, Sport Dog Source may earn a small commission. This costs you nothing extra; the price you pay is the same whether you use our link or go to the retailer directly.
We may also participate in other affiliate programs beyond Amazon Associates as the site grows. When we do, we’ll disclose that here and, where relevant, alongside the specific links.
Our Reviews Stay Independent
Whether or not a product has an affiliate link never changes how we evaluate it. Every product we cover is judged the same way: real use, real training and field conditions, and an honest verdict — including when gear underperforms. Commissions help fund the cost of buying and testing gear; they don’t buy placement or a positive review.
Tracking & Cookies
When you click an affiliate link, Amazon (or another retailer) may place a cookie or similar tracking technology on your device to record the referral and attribute any resulting purchase to Sport Dog Source. We don’t control this tracking, and it’s governed by that retailer’s own privacy policy, not ours.
