## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## NextDayPets Scraper (Pawrade)

Scrape **puppy listings from Pawrade** — the platform that succeeded nextdaypets.com (the domain now redirects there). Browse puppies by breed, by US state or metro area, or from curated collections, and get name, breed, gender, age, price, photos, and health details per puppy. Pure HTTP via public browse pages. No auth, no proxy.

### What this actor does

- **Four modes:** `byBreed` (default), `byLocation`, `byCollection`, `byUrl`
- **50 breed dropdowns** — every breed currently listed on the platform (incl. `yorkiepoo-yorkie-poo` / Yorkie-Poo)
- **74 location dropdowns** — every US state + major metro area the platform supports
- **5 curated collections** — apartment dogs, family dogs, hypoallergenic, small, emotional support
- **Filters:** gender, price range
- **Rich puppy data:** age in weeks, gender, price, photo thumbnails, birth/available dates, microchip status, color, weight, registration
- **Empty fields are omitted** — records only carry values the platform actually provides

### Data Source

nextdaypets.com was rebranded and now redirects to **pawrade.com**. This actor scrapes Pawrade's public, indexable puppy browse pages (`/puppies/<breed>/`, `/puppies-for-sale/<state>/`, `/collection/<slug>/`) and puppy detail pages. No login, cookies, or API keys required.

### Output per puppy

Browse records (`mode = byBreed / byLocation / byCollection`) include:

- `id` — Pawrade's internal puppy id (10-char hex)
- `name` — puppy's given name
- `breed` — canonical breed slug (e.g. `golden-retriever`)
- `gender` — `male` or `female`
- `ageWeeks` — age in weeks
- `price` — asking price in USD (from the listing card)
- `thumbnailUrl` — photo thumbnail (CloudFront CDN)
- `puppyUrl`, `sourceUrl` — canonical listing URL
- `recordType: "puppy"`, `scrapedAt`

Detail records (`mode = byUrl`) additionally include:

- `description` — breeder's description text
- `color`, `weight` — physical attributes
- `dateOfBirth`, `dateAvailable` — dates
- `microchipped` — boolean
- `registration` — registration body (e.g. `ICCF`)
- `puppyId` — short display id (e.g. `57BF5F`)
- `priceTotal` — all-in price including placement & PetPay fees
- `images[]`, `imageUrl` — full-size photo gallery

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `mode` | string | `byBreed` | `byBreed` / `byLocation` / `byCollection` / `byUrl` |
| `breed` | string | `golden-retriever` | Breed slug (mode=byBreed); empty = all breeds |
| `location` | string | – | US state / metro slug (mode=byLocation) |
| `collection` | string | – | Collection slug (mode=byCollection) |
| `urls` | array | – | Puppy URLs to fetch (mode=byUrl) |
| `gender` | string | – | `male` / `female` filter |
| `priceMin` | int | – | Minimum price in USD |
| `priceMax` | int | – | Maximum price in USD |
| `maxItems` | int | `50` | Hard cap (1–1000) |

#### Example: browse a breed with filters

```json
{
  "mode": "byBreed",
  "breed": "golden-retriever",
  "gender": "female",
  "priceMax": 3000,
  "maxItems": 25
}
```

#### Example: puppies near a state

```json
{
  "mode": "byLocation",
  "location": "texas",
  "maxItems": 20
}
```

#### Example: fetch specific puppies by URL

```json
{
  "mode": "byUrl",
  "urls": [
    "https://www.pawrade.com/puppies/cane-corso-mastiff/57bf5fee71/"
  ]
}
```

#### Example: curated collection

```json
{
  "mode": "byCollection",
  "collection": "best-hypoallergenic-dogs",
  "maxItems": 30
}
```

### Use cases

- **Family pet research** — compare available puppies of a breed with prices and ages
- **Breeder marketplace analysis** — track supply, pricing, and availability across breeds and states
- **Pet marketplaces** — monitor competitor inventory and price positioning
- **Content pipelines** — build puppy-listing feeds with photos and descriptions
- **Pet adoption tech** — power search UIs with live availability data

### FAQ

**What happened to nextdaypets.com?**
The brand was absorbed into Pawrade and the domain now redirects to `pawrade.com`. This actor scrapes the live successor platform, which is where nextdaypets listings now live.

**Is there a text search mode?**
No. Pawrade does not support a free-text puppy search on its public pages (`?s=` queries are ignored and return the full listing). Browse by breed, location, or collection instead, or fetch exact URLs with `byUrl`.

**What currency are prices in?**
USD. `price` is the advertised puppy price; `priceTotal` (detail pages) includes Pawrade's placement & PetPay fees.

**Why do some fields only appear on detail records?**
Fields like `description`, `color`, and `microchipped` only exist on a puppy's own detail page. Browse pages list cards with the essentials; use `mode=byUrl` (or open any `puppyUrl`) to get the full profile. The actor intentionally does not fetch every detail page when browsing, to keep runs fast and cheap.

**Are the photos accessible?**
Yes — all images are served from public CloudFront CDN URLs and load without authentication.

**Is this actor affiliated with Pawrade?**
No. This is a third-party actor using Pawrade's publicly visible pages.

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config.
