What this map shows

This map shows, one point per place, cafés, restaurants, places to stay, campsites and shops tagged on OpenStreetMap, a map anyone can edit, as allowing dogs, plus dog parks. Popups and lists show the rule: allowed, allowed on a leash, or outdoors only (e.g. terrace).

At country level, nearby places are grouped into numbered circles that split up as you zoom in. Choose a prefecture to see a list. Tap a point for the address and official website where listed, a Google Maps search link and the OpenStreetMap page it comes from.

Questions and answers

Is every place on the map?

No. Only places listed on OpenStreetMap are shown, and OpenStreetMap does not list every place in Japan. Some places that have closed may still be listed.

How current is the data?

It is fetched again from OpenStreetMap once a month. The date of the data is shown at the bottom of the page and in each popup.

Can I use the data?

The place data comes from OpenStreetMap (© OpenStreetMap contributors) and is available under the Open Database License (ODbL 1.0).

This map shows cafés, restaurants, places to stay, campsites and shops that are tagged on OpenStreetMap, a map anyone can edit, as allowing dogs (the dog tag), and places tagged as dog parks. Places tagged as not allowing dogs (dog=no) are not shown.
OpenStreetMap does not list every pet-friendly place in Japan. Rules (indoors or terrace only, dog size, number of dogs) and opening hours can change. Please check with the place before you go.
Only the name, location, type and prefecture of each place are shown, plus the address and official website when they are listed on OpenStreetMap. Phone numbers, social media accounts and operators are not included. The Google Maps link searches Google Maps for the name and address. The prefecture is assigned from the location and may be wrong near prefecture borders.
If a place is wrong or missing, fixing it on OpenStreetMap will bring the change into this map at the next monthly update.
