Once you've finished a stage of the trick any dice faces are now assigned to your dogs
====Yellow Tricks====
* Dig: For each of your paw prints, raise or lower a buried dice of any player by 1, discarding any 0s. Then, roll 2 dices.
* Retrieve
* Track: Roll 3 dices. When you use a treat, you may reroll only part of your dices.
* Trot: You may remove a dice on your dogs to place a dice in another empty space. Then, roll 2 dices.
* Walk (Beginner Set): Roll 2 dices. Then, you may roll 1 dice.


If you can't assign a die (or don't want to), it goes to your yard
====Purple Tricks====
 
* Bolt: Roll 3 to 12 dice, one at a time. You may stop early if your number of paw prints is not smaller than the number of dices left to be rolled.
Dice can only be placed if the number space is shown on a dog, and each space can only take one die
* Chase: Roll 1 dice. Then, you may add 1 dice to the number of dices you roll and repeat this.
 
* Dogpile
Treats can be spent to reroll all dice in a stage of a trick before placement
* Run (Beginner Set): Roll 3 dices. Then, you may roll 1 dice for as many times as you want.
 
* Sprint: Roll 1 dice for each of your incomplete dogs. Then, repeat this as many times as you want.
If the pips on your yard dice ever total 8 or more, all dice in your yard and on your dogs are discarded along with any unassigned dice. Then your turn ends immediately.
 
If there's ever only one option for what trick to perform, give it a treat, then flip all tricks to their active side. The next person to perform that trick also gains the treat
 
====Complete a Dog====
 
Instead of performing a trick, you can instead declare a dog complete and score it
 
To do this, the dog must have all its dice spaces filled, then discard them all and flip the dog to show it's complete
 
If you are able, you must complete multiple dogs at the same time (i.e. you can't hang on to a completed dog for another turn if you take this action)
 
Draw new dog cards to replace the ones you finished
 
====Bonus Complete a Dog====
 
If you take the Perform a Trick action, and it results in ALL your active dogs being filled, you immediately score/flip them without having to additionally take the Complete a Dog action on your next turn
 
Remember this bonus occurs AFTER all dice from that stage of the trick are placed, i.e. if you fill your dogs AND get 8+ in your yard, you wipe everything as normal before checking for the bonus and as such wouldn't get a bonus as all dogs would now be empty
 
====End of Game====
 
The game ends when someone scores their 6th Dog and is declared winner of dogs
 
In addition, you may not have more than 6 dogs ever, i.e. your final setup before a win would be 5 scored and 1 active
