## What is Poor Little Dog?

Adopt and save this poor little dog. But first you will have to earn his trust.

Earn this little puppy's trust by giving him the 5 objects he likes. Pick up 1 of the 10 objects from the bottom of the screen and a flashing dog paw will appear. Drag the object to the flashing paw and hopefully the puppy will like the object. Be careful when choosing the objects, if you give the dog 5 objects he doesn't like, the game will be over.

After earning the dog's trust, play dress up with the dog. Slide the object you want to try on the dog. Double tap on the flower, necklace, ribbon, etc... to get different colors and styles.
