Board game equivalent of the zoomies!

Absolutely hilarious! Our Goldie pup (13 months) was bored and muttering to himself so I got this out, intending to 'read the rules', but we were off in mad excitement the second the box lid lifted. He LOVES the texture of the (plush) bone and dice - and the fact that we tried to take them both back so we could 'work out how to play the game' ... - and we hid treats under the beakers, and a small ball and made it all up as we went along! Energetic, hilarious fun for all of us. And then when I wanted to pack it up ( and end on a high note before he got bored) he was NOT keen and that turned into another game all by itself!!!! Can't recommend this enough! We have to watch the beakers closely though as our dog is a chewer and a shredder :P . Perfect entertainment for everybody. Would make an excellent birthday or Christmas present. Quite an exceptional thing - and don't worry about the rules - just lift the lid near your woofy friend and you'll be off!

Ha! That sound like so much fun! So lovely! <3

Thanks so much for sharing and yes, the rules are just a guideline. The main rule is to have fun! :)

Easy fun game

We have played this game repeatedly in the last few weeks since we bought it- took it on holiday and played it with kids and dog which was heaps of fun, but we also play a quieter solo game at home in the evenings.

It is a fun way to entertain the dog, and sneak in some sound training at the same time. Activities can easily be adapted to the capabilities of the dogs and human players. Main rule is have fun!

Lucy the dog pricks up her ears when the box comes out, so that's got to be a good sign!

This makes me very happy to see, thanks so much for sharing!! So glad everyone enjoys it and it works so well for everyone!! <3
