Editorial pen name disclosure

Theo Blanchard is an editorial pen name used by the PetFoodRate team for continuity of voice across our coverage. The biography above describes the role and experience of the editorial position, not a single real-world individual. We publish under pen names so our writers can keep their personal information private while we build long-running coverage of the pet food market.

All PetFoodRate articles are reviewed against primary sources (FEDIAF, AAFCO, published pet nutrition literature). For medical decisions about your pet's diet, always consult a licensed veterinarian.
