How to call it

A starting template for HTTP Dog. Replace ENDPOINT with the path from the official documentation, which we link above rather than guess at.

# No authentication required.
curl -s "https://http.dog/ENDPOINT" \
  -H "Accept: application/json"

This API does not send CORS headers, so a browser will block a direct call from your front end. Call it from your server, or put a small proxy in front of it.

HTTP Dog — common questions

Answered from what our own scheduled checks found, not from the provider's marketing.

Is HTTP Dog free to use?

HTTP Dog is listed in our free catalogue and required no credential when we called it. It needs no authentication at all, so you can send a request without signing up. Free tiers can still carry rate limits or non-commercial terms, so check the provider's own terms before shipping.

Does HTTP Dog need an API key?

No. We called HTTP Dog on 2026-09-18 with no key, no token and no Authorization header, and it responded. That is what puts it in our no-key collection.

Can I call HTTP Dog from browser JavaScript?

Not directly. HTTP Dog did not return CORS headers when we checked, so the browser will block your page from reading the response even though the request itself succeeds. Call it from a server, or put a small proxy in front of it.

Is HTTP Dog still working?

Yes, as of 2026-09-18. Our automated check reached HTTP Dog and recorded a 100% reliability score with a median response time of 132 ms. We re-check on a schedule, and this page updates with the result.

Is HTTP Dog available over HTTPS?

Yes. HTTP Dog serves over HTTPS, so you can call it from a secure page without triggering a mixed-content block.
