Setup

  • Each player starts with 2 dog cards.
  • Each player rolls 1 dice 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 dices you roll must either be placed on a matching space on one of your dogs, or your yard.
  • Each space can only take one dice.
  • You may spend a treat to reroll all dices in a roll. You may not only reroll some of the dices.
  • If the total of all dices in your yard exceed 7 at any time, you bust. Discard all dices 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 dices from a roll during a trick, score all your dogs.

Scoring Dogs

  • Flip all your completed dogs over and discard all dices 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.
