I think you should open source the data, too, by uploading a SQL dump to Github. It provides more learning vectors.

Will give it a thought, thanks for your comment.

One possible advantage here depends on how you do this, but you could make it easy for others to add/edit dog facts and thus help you maintain the data (with moderation, if wanted). Is this something you are interested in? This can be complimentary to the API - it doesn't have to replace it.

(I'm writing on an open source tool to help people do this with files in Git repos. https://pypi.org/project/DataTig/#data )

sounds like hooking the API up to wikidata would be a sustainable long-term solution (presumes wikidata has the relevant coverage).
