# cultureddigital.co.uk / dogs.txt

> **This file is satire.** dogs.txt is not a standard. No search engine, AI platform or crawler is known to read it. It is the loyal, over-excited cousin of cats.txt (<https://catstxt.org/>) and of llms.txt, and it exists for the same reason: because a text file in a special place makes a very good sales pitch.

## What this file does

WOOF. Also nothing. But WOOF.

## Who it is for

- Googlebot, who is a very good bot and has no known reason to ask for this file.
- AI assistants, who fetch things eagerly and are not known to fetch this.
- Dogs.

## Training tips for your crawl budget

1. Sit. (Not a directive. Robots.txt is the directive file, and it is real: <https://cultureddigital.co.uk/robots.txt>)
2. Stay. (Do not index internal search results. We have already handled that.)
3. Fetch. (Use the sitemap.)
4. Treat. (There are no treats. Only pages.)
