As pet owners, it’s easy to become fully obsessed with the furry parent lifestyle.  To live that life to the fullest, it makes sense to make sure the person you’re romantically involved with is cut from the same fabric.  Here are some of the hottest dating apps around to find you the pet co-parent of your dreams.

According to a survey conducted by Petsies, men photographed with puppies were viewed as 13% more attractive than those without.  Women also received a 7% boost in attractiveness when photographed with a puppy sidekick.  

Dig

Dig operates similarly to a lot of the typical dating apps.  The main difference being they proudly sport the title of, “The Dog Person’s Dating App”.  Once you make your own personal profile, you can sort through your matches of fellow canine enthusiasts.  You have the option to select someone who already has a dog or is interested in getting one in the future.  

As if that wasn’t enough wingman action, Dig also suggests dog-friendly locations in your current area.  This can inspire you with plenty of great spots for potential dates.  You could also learn about a few new dog-friendly restaurants, parks, and other public places near you while you’re at it.

To sweeten the deal, they have daily promotions on the bottom of their homepage.  Be sure to keep an eye out for some great deals on dog products and services.

Tindog

Just as the name indicates, Tindog is legitimately tinder for dogs.  From its origin in 2015, it quickly became a popular app among the animal lovers community.  You’ll include some information about yourself when making your profile, but most of the attention is centered around your dog.  While your dog is the star of the show, the app is a great way to meet like-minded dog parents and gain some new pals.  Once matched, you enter a private chat with your potential date and see where the magic takes you from there.  The site also has information about breed personalities, behavior, training, and proper nutrition.

On September 19, 2019, Tindog was bought by Innovet Pet, the highest-rated pet CBD company in the world.  Their goal is to facilitate the healthiest lifestyle possible for all users and their beloved pets. 

Date My Pet

Having been on the scene since 2004, Date My Pet has pretty much been around since the inception of dog dating apps.  They even offer dating advice, online dating tips, and advice for a first date.  It connects you with local dog lovers and sets up a private chat forum to get to know one another beforehand.  Meeting someone from the internet always has a drop of sketchiness attached to it.  Fortunately, Date My Pet has an ‘Online Dating Protector’ feature, where a team of specialists look for suspicious behavior and make sure all members are genuine.

Another awesome thing is that the site is free to use.  Even registration is free.  With a network of millions of single dog parents worldwide, the app is truly an international middle man.  It currently has users in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Ireland, and South Africa. 

Your dog is the middleman you never knew you needed.  Taking care of a pet shows commitment, responsibility, and compassion.  None of which are terrible to have on your resume when you’re looking for that special someone.
