The BarkBuddy App is Tinder for Puppies
Vasiliki Marapas — May 28, 2014 — Tech
From the makers of 'BarkBox,' comes the equally-as-cleverly titled 'BarkBuddy,' an app that's being hailed as "Tinder for dogs."
Unfortunately, this app isn't to help you find your pooch a mate. Instead, the app features 300,000 adorable -- and adoptable -- pups for your consideration. Just like Tinder, you swipe right to indicate your interest in a dog, and allowing the app to forward you recommendations.
If you're in the market for a four-legged companion, then this app is a quick and easy way to find one. Of course, it's still a worthwhile download, even if you aren't looking for a new pet -- I mean, look at those adorable faces! Scrolling through these puppy dogs is probably a better use of your time than human Tinder.
