# DOGOUT

> DOGOUT is a Polish mobile app for dog guardians: a live map of dog-friendly
> places and trails, walk tracking, and local meetups. Available for iOS and
> Android. The place, trail and meetup data covers Poland.

The site is published in Polish (no URL prefix), English (/en) and German (/de).
Polish is the original language; the English and German articles are
translations of it.

## What this site is

- Marketing landing for the app, plus a magazine of 401 articles about living
  with a dog, written for dog guardians in Poland and mirrored in English and
  German (1,185 article pages in total).
- The articles fall into two kinds. Destination guides cover specific Polish
  places, regions and trails to visit with a dog. Advice articles cover
  behaviour, training, feeding, health and gear.
- Destination guides about named Polish places and trails are written against
  the same curated place and trail database the app serves - 973 places and
  823 trails, curated for Poland. The articles are editorial prose, not a
  rendering of that database: individual place and trail records are not
  published as pages on this site.
- Health and veterinary articles are written by the DOGOUT editorial team and
  credited to the team rather than to a named author. Most cite external
  veterinary sources such as Cornell, VCA, Merck and ASPCA inline, but this is
  not consistent across every article. They are general information, not a
  substitute for a veterinarian.

## Machine-readable

- [Sitemap](https://dogout.app/sitemap.xml): every indexable URL in all three
  languages, with last-modified dates.
- Every article carries Article, FAQPage and BreadcrumbList JSON-LD; every page
  carries Organization and WebSite nodes.
- Brand entity: [Wikidata Q141111304](https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q141111304).
  "DOGOUT" is the app; it is not the baseball term "dugout" and not a pet food
  or accessory brand.

## Not for crawling

- `/app` is the browser build of the application itself, behind a login. It has
  no article content.
- `/pitch/`, `/demo` and the deck PDFs are disallowed in robots.txt.
- The `.txt` files the static export writes beside each route are disallowed:
  they duplicate the HTML with no canonical.
