The poster came after Chris Morris' duck lost its mate to a hungry bobcat a few weeks ago at his yard in Blue Hill. According to an international media outlet, Morris was even able to find a mate for his duck. Morris has also arranged for a meeting for the Yellow Duck with Sadie Greene's duck on December 15. the Yellow Duck's favourite food reportedly is slugs which might be on the menu for the big date.

Dating apps for dogs

While Tinder and Bumble is a dating app for humans, dogs can now also pursue who's on the market around them with apps like Twindog and DogDate. According to reports, the app requires one to create a profile for their dog, with information like name, age, and breed so dogs in the area can determine whether the other dog is the right choice for them. A woman reportedly also took her dog out on a date. After finding a match, the five-year-old Pomeranian met up with another Pomeranian in Beverly hills for a light dinner. However the dog rejected his date, but it sure was a great opportunity for the dog to practice his moves. However, Twindog is not advertised as a human dating resource so owners will obviously have to accompany their dogs on a date.
