In Dog Lover, you fetch cards, collect bones, and gather food for yourlovable dogs. You rescue them from the shelter, train them on new tricks, andcherish their unique traits. The player who takes care of their beloved dogsbest will score the most victory points and win!

In more detail, you start the game with a random dog card — which come insmall, medium, and big sizes — as well as a random “special trick” card.Shuffle the game cards, then lay out the top nine cards in a 3×3 grid. Next tothat, lay out three dog trick cards in an adjacent column and three rescued dogsin another column. The player farthest from the start player places the watchdog token next to one of the rows or columns, then the game is readyto play.

On a turn, choose one of your trick cards, rotating it as you desire, thencollect cards from the 3×3 grid that match the pattern on the trick card, e.g.,common polyomino shapes. You can take at most one card in the row or columnunder the protection of the watch dog. You can play and tuck cards both beforeand after you collect cards from the grid. What do you do with what youcollect?

  • Dog cards sit in front of you immediately. Good boy!
  • Food cards are exchanged for one of the four types of food.
  • Adoption cards go in your hand, and you can exchange two for a rescued dog,which comes with a special power or endgame bonus.
  • Favourite Things cards are dog toys that are more valuable when you collectthem in sets.
  • Training cards can be tucked under a dog for bonus points, or you canexchange several of them to gain a new trick, which gives you more card-grabbingoptions each turn.
  • Walk cards are worth bonus points when tucked under a dog.
  • Bone cards give you a bonus for fed dogs if you collect enoughof them.
  • Trait cards give an ongoing power and an endgame bonus, but you must attachit to a dog the turn you claim it; otherwise, you must usually discardmultiple cards.

When the “End Game” card appears in the deck, you complete the round sothat each player has the same number of turns, then you tally points. Each doghas a food requirement. If you meet that requirement, the dog and all its traitsand tucked cards will be worth points. However, if you don't give the dog theright type and amount of food, you score –2 points for that dog and ignoreall tucked cards that would otherwise give you points (Don't let your dogs gohungry!). The player who scores the most points is the ultimate dog lover!
