Setup

• Each player starts with 2 dog cards.
• Each player rolls 1 die and place it in their yards.

Gameplay

• On your turn, you can either do a trick or score all your dogs.

Do a Trick

• Choose a face up trick card, gain any treats on it (if any) and follow its instructions, then turn it face down.
• The dice you roll must either be placed on a matching space on one of your dogs, or your yard.
• Each space can only take one die.
• You may spend a treat to reroll all dice in a roll. You may not only reroll some of the dice.
• If the total of all dice in your yard exceed 7 at any time, you bust. Discard all dice on your dogs and in your yard, then immediately ends your turn.
• If there are only 1 face up trick after a trick is done, place a treat on it and flip all other tricks face up.
• If all your dogs are completed after placing all dice from a roll during a trick, score all your dogs.

Scoring Dogs

• Flip all your completed dogs over and discard all dice on them.
• Draw dogs equal to the number of dogs you completed. You must stop when you have exactly 6 dogs.

End of Game

• The player with 6 completed dogs immediately wins.
• You may not have more than 6 dogs at any time.
