TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Tinder For Dogs

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Tinder For Dogs

If you have a dog this idea might change your life. In a good way.

This isn’t even an ad or anything it’s just such a cool idea. Basically it’s Tinder for dogs.

The idea was created by this guy in Toronto. The app is called Pawmates and helps you find other dogs in your area for your pup to play with. So, sort of like going to the dog park but on your phone.

And who knows maybe you’ll meet someone on there too. A feel dog owner to fall in love with.

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Do babies see in color when they’re first born?

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Do babies see in color when they’re first born?

This mystery was something I thought of when my wife and I welcomed our second child a few weeks ago. Can she see in color? What does she see?

The answer seems to be that newborns only see in black and white when they are first born. Then over a few weeks they start to see shades of grey. It’s not until about 4 months that they slowly start seeing in color.

Crazy!
