Community Guidelines
Dogbook is a friendly place for real dogs and the people who love them. These are the rules everyone agrees to.
Real dogs, real photos
Every profile and cover photo must be taken with the in-app camera. No AI images, no filters, no editing apps, no photos downloaded from the internet.
Every upload is checked automatically for dogs, AI-generated images, editing software tags and duplicates. Photos that fail a check are hidden until a moderator reviews them.
One profile per dog
Dogs are individuals — two profiles for the same dog is not allowed. The same photo cannot be used by another dog.
Be kind
No harassment, hate speech, threats or bullying. No spam, no advertising, no impersonating another owner or dog.
Animal welfare comes first
Do not post content showing animal cruelty, neglect, dangerous handling or dogs in distress for entertainment. Reports of cruelty are reviewed first.
Keep personal details private
Never post your own or anyone else's address, phone number, email or full location. Town and city level only.
Reporting and blocking
Every post, message and photo has a report option: fake or AI photo, not a dog, abuse, spam, or animal cruelty. You can block any dog or owner at any time.
Breaking these rules can lead to a post being removed, a profile being suspended, or an owner losing access to Dogbook.
