Editorial Reviews

June 23, 2005, Norwalk, CT … For the second year in a row, the editors of the Chicago Tribune selected The Whole Dog Journal as one of its 50 Best Magazines.

They wrote: “Still the all-around best mix of training tips, products/nutrition advice and balanced, veterinary and holistic health info. Accepts no advertising. We love the series of articles on canine physiology that's taking us on a trip around the pooch."

The nine-year old title's founding editor Nancy Kerns remarked, “Each month, we work hard to bring thoughtful dog owners the information they need to feed, train and care for their dog in the most caring way. Our food reviews are unmatched in the industry and our training and health articles continue to teach owners effective and useful methods for living with their companion dogs. On behalf of our writers and contributors, I'm proud of this recognition and happy Whole Dog Journal is again among the 50 Best Magazines.”
