One segestion is that one of the dogs should be lidabidabotabut shearch her up and look at all her friends ### 5/5 — Such a heartwarming game!! *2026-08-28, version 1.29.12* I downloaded this a couple days ago as the quality and graphics looked so realistic but adorable! I don’t have a single doubt or bad thing to say about this game, the dogs are wonderful and the storylines are so beautiful and creative. I really enjoy playing this now I could spend all day on it! I used to own a black staffy called angel and a grey pitbull called kash and this game reassured me that there are lovely dog sanctuaries in the world especially ones for little oldies that still deserve love too and that actually care for our fluffy pups! If anyone is thinking of downloading this game i wouldn’t even hesitate. ### 5/5 — I love the game…and sharkey more🤫🤫🤫 *2026-08-28, version 1.29.12* Hey , this is the best game ever! But this puzzles me: if king Sharkey is known for chasing critters, why did Joshua give us a statue of mack 😵‍💫instead of king Sharkey? But apart from that the game is the best. My favorites are king Sharkey, Leo, Captain Ron, Tigger , Kirby, and Chanel . I don’t give mack almost any attention at all, but 4 times I got 20 per minute love with Sharky! ### 5/5 — SO FUN *2026-08-23, version 1.29.12* I LOVE This Game It’s Doesn’t Have Lots Of Adds And It’s Just Fun AND I THINK YOU SHOULD PLAY IT ### 5/5 — One of the best video games ever *2026-08-23, version 1.29.12* Been playing this game on my old phone since around 2021, I just installed it again, one of my fave video games, I love dogs so much and I like how the dogs are actually real, so much love ofsds ### 5/5 — I LOVE THIS GAMEEEE *2026-08-21, version 1.29.12* Okay this game is the best and most addictive thing ever!!!!!!

This game makes my day so much better with it’s coziness and cute illustrations. I would love it if it could make so many more people’s day and enable them to love it just as much as I do. Trust me I know I will be looking forward to looking at other runaway apps because they are so easy and adorable. This game is a must have with so much to do, love and see. ### 5/5 — Love this game!! *2026-08-20, version 1.29.12* This game is so so cute and it’s so nice to be able to contribute to meaningful cause!! ### 4/5 — No words to describe this game ❤️ *2026-08-16, version 1.29.12* I love it, it’s adorable and amazing and the dogs are so cute and adorably drawn. But I do have suggestions, of course. One: When you let the dogs, a lot of the animations are reused, I’m okay with that, but maybe with Chanel and Kirby, Babs and Mac, Sharkey and Mildred, you could mix it up a bit. Create more animations for the dogs when you pet them. Two: make getting money a touch easier, the money is good and all, but the costs of the toys and food ingredients are quite a lot and it makes it hard to keep food and toys in abundance for the dogs. So, either make the donations give more or make the prices for the toys and food ingredients less. Three: add more doggies!!! Maybe you could plan or add more dogs, and with that, be able to expand the yard or house, or maybe even be able to buy a whole new place just for the dogs and such. But I prefer the “expand the yard/house” option. That’s all I have, and all I can think of, please please please consider adding these things! ❤️ 🐕 ❤️ ### 5/5 — Perfect game *2026-08-16, version 1.29.12* I absolutely love this game!

I really like this game and right now im playing it every day! ### 5/5 — My favorite dog game ever!!! *2026-08-07, version 1.29.12* In this game, you can: get new dogs by leveling your dog’s friendship-level, there is tons of stuff to decorate with, AND you can make food to feed the dogs!!! (I will be super-happy if I get a developer response, and im sending this review on my dad’s account lol) ### 5/5 — Just amazing *2026-08-05, version 1.29.12* I’m allergic to dogs and I usually get games with dogs though this is the best dog game I have ever stumbled upon all of the dogs are just soooo cute and I love how the dogs in game are based on real life dogs ### 5/5 — Dude *2026-08-04, version 1.29.12* Amazing how do u make such a game we need more like this ### 5/5 — luv it!! *2026-08-03, version 1.29.12* hi i really really really love this game so so so much, i dont even want to rate it under 5 stars, though i wished we had more dogs:(. i also kinda wish there was a cat version of this… ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Booooo *2026-04-30, version 1.29.04* Kinda sorta sucks don’t get it 👎 ### 1/5 — Horrible *2026-03-11, version 1.29.04* This game is absolutely horrible. You want me to tell you why it literally is just people talking over and over and then like you just pet the dog give it food give it water and make it be friends every 10 seconds. It’s absolutely boring and it’s basically just talking the whole thing I want to relax and calm game all their other games like Hatch Dragons are fun, calming and not as talkative. ### 1/5 — It stoped working. *2026-02-08, version 1.29.04* One day I was wanting to play it and I just got the new update and it did not let me get in. ### 1/5 — It won't let me in *2026-02-01, version 1.29.04* I would've given this game 5 stars because I love it but it won't even let me in anymore please fix the game I miss playing it!!! ### 1/5 — Won’t work *2026-02-01, version 1.28.27* Game gets stuck at 29 and won’t open ### 1/5 — Hacked😡😭 *2026-01-23, version 1.28.27* This is a game that I wanted to play, but I couldn’t get in and deleted within the first day.
