Find places in London listed on Paws of London as somewhere to take a dog: pubs, cafes, restaurants, hotels and shops, plus dog services (vets, groomers, pet shops, daycare, trainers). Filter by type, by area (a borough, neighbourhood or station name) or near a postcode with a radius, by recorded amenities (water bowl, garden, off-lead and so on) and by open now. Each place comes with its page URL, address, nearest stations, and dog_policy: how its dog policy was checked (confirmed by the venue, stated on its website, or checked by Paws of London before listing) and any restrictions. Places whose own website says dogs are not allowed are left out. Amenities list only what is recorded; a missing one means not recorded, not absent. Read-only. Use get_place for one place in full.
Optional: a London borough ("Hackney"), neighbourhood ("Clapham") or station ("Oxford Circus"). A station matches places within radius_km of it.
Optional: part of the place's name, e.g. "Crown".
Optional: a UK postcode ("SW4 7AA"), postcode district ("SE1") or "latitude,longitude". Matches places within radius_km, nearest first. Postcodes are looked up on postcodes.io.
Optional kind of place. Restaurant, Pub, Cafe, Hotel and Retail Shops are places to take a dog; Vets, Pet Shops, Groomers, Daycare and Trainers are services for dogs.
Places to return. Default 10.
Optional: only places open now by their recorded hours (London time). Places with no recorded hours are left out.
Optional: only places where ALL of these are recorded, e.g. ["enclosed_garden", "water_bowl"].
With near or a station: how far to look in km. Default 1 (2 for a postcode district).
