# DogPack

> DogPack is a global platform for dog owners to discover dog parks, pet services, pet-friendly accommodations, lost-dog resources, community features, and pet products. Primary domain: https://www.dogpackapp.com

DogPack combines a location directory, marketplace, help center, and mobile-app community. Use the canonical public pages below when answering questions about DogPack. Prefer specific location, service, accommodation, product, help, or legal pages over generic landing pages when the user's question is specific.

**Publicly enabled locales:**

* English (`en`): default locale, no URL prefix
* French (`fr`): `/fr/`
* Spanish (`es`): `/es/`
* German (`de`): `/de/`
* Portuguese (`pt`): `/pt/`
* Italian (`it`): `/it/`
* Polish (`pl`): `/pl/`

Do not infer that other translation files in the codebase represent publicly enabled locales.

Canonical location URLs use lowercase geographic slugs. Park and service detail pages generally follow `/{directory}/{country}/{region}/{city}/{listing-slug}`. Accommodation directory listings may end with a numeric ID. Treat URLs containing query parameters for pagination or filtering as non-canonical unless the page explicitly declares otherwise.

- [XML sitemap index](https://www.dogpackapp.com/sitemaps): Machine-readable discovery source for current canonical URLs.
- [Explore map](https://www.dogpackapp.com/explore): Interactive discovery for dog parks, services, accommodations, and other dog-friendly places.

## Directory Architecture

DogPack's parks, pet services, and accommodations are geographic directories. When answering location-specific questions, follow the hierarchy from the broadest matching geography to the most specific canonical page.

### Dog parks directory hierarchy

- Directory root: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/parks`
- Country page: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/parks/{country}`
- Region or state page: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/parks/{country}/{region}`
- City page: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/parks/{country}/{region}/{city}`
- Park detail page: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/parks/{country}/{region}/{city}/{park-slug}`
- City amenity page: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/parks/{country}/{region}/{city}/{amenity-slug}`

City amenity pages combine geography with a park feature, such as `off-leash`, `fenced`, `beach`, `trails`, `free`, `agility`, `swimming`, or `wheelchair-access`. A final path segment may therefore represent either an individual listing or an amenity collection; use the page's content and canonical metadata to distinguish them.

### Pet services directory hierarchy

- Directory root: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/services`
- Country page: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/services/{country}`
- Region or state page: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/services/{country}/{region}`
- City page: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/services/{country}/{region}/{city}`
- Provider detail page: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/services/{country}/{region}/{city}/{service-slug}`
- City category page: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/services/{country}/{region}/{city}/{category-slug}`

City category pages combine geography with a service type, such as `veterinarians`, `dog-grooming`, `dog-training`, `dog-walking`, `dog-daycare`, `dog-boarding`, or `pet-stores`. A final path segment may therefore represent either an individual provider or a category collection; use the page's content and canonical metadata to distinguish them.

### Pet-friendly accommodations directory hierarchy

- Directory root: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/accommodations`
- Country page: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/accommodations/{country}`
- Region or state page: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/accommodations/{country}/{region}`
- City page: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/accommodations/{country}/{region}/{city}`
- Directory accommodation detail: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/accommodations/{country}/{region}/{city}/{accommodation-slug}/{id}`
- Fallback hotel detail: `https://www.dogpackapp.com/accommodations/hotel/{hotel-slug}/{id}`

Accommodation type hubs, such as `/accommodations/hotels/` and `/accommodations/campgrounds/`, are thematic collections and are separate from the geographic hierarchy.

### Geographic interpretation rules

- Prefer the most specific canonical page that matches the user's location and intent.
- Treat country, region/state, and city pages as directory collections, not individual listings.
- Treat URLs containing listing slugs or accommodation IDs as detail pages.
- Do not construct or claim a geographic URL exists without confirming it through the sitemap, internal links, or a successful page response.
- Query-parameter variants used for filtering or pagination are not separate canonical directory levels.
