The origin story

A sentence became a website. The website became a game.

Strangers kept stopping Dora on walks to say the same complete and perfect sentence: "I want to pet that dog." Her humans built that sentence a home first, a little website where her photos live and the pets are counted. Then they figured a dog this pettable deserved a daily puzzle too, and DoraGrid is that puzzle: her fan club, photo archive, and crossword headquarters in one place.

Certified Pettable. Pet acceptance rate: 100%. Regrets reported: 0.

Where Dora comes from: I Want to Pet That Dog

DoraGrid is made in Manhattan, Kansas by Dora’s humans, whenever she lets them use the couch desk.
