### 4/5 — Love this sim

*2026-08-17, version 3.0*

This is a really fun simulator, and this is probably one of the best ones that Gluten Free Games has made! I love dogs and if you do too, and want to experience the life of one, then get this simulator. Although I would really enjoy it even more if you were able to go into houses, and yes, I do know that gluten free games stopped years ago, but maybe someone can remake it so you can go into houses houses and have more owners

### 3/5 — Bug

*2026-07-21, version 3.0*

There is a bug when fighting the wolf boss where it just closes the app it’s really annoying

### 5/5 — Strange stuff is happening

*2026-06-12, version 3.0*

First:I saw two wolves and two foxes in a yard and they were fighting 
And after that an alligator in a yard Second:I was a beagle and I couldn’t 
find a mate. Also  can you add a husky and a border collie and a golden retriever please? Maybe you can make Ultimate Mutt Simulator and you could choose how you look but there are no breeds( of course there are breeds! They are too tangled up for you to see which is which is what I mean.) So you could mate whoever you wanted. And you could add kids. And make dogs not attack you. And make there be a shelter you go to before you get adopted. And make there be a vet you go to when you get hurt.And make the owner walk you and do more than just feed you. And make the children go on a school bus. And make there be shops in the city. And make there be other pets in the homes you get taken to. And make there be dog beds. And make the human not stay in one place and stare at a wall please. And can we choose our starting dog. And can you make the beagle more realistic? Its paws look like stairs. No offense. And make the human walk around and call you by your name instead of “Dog” or “Doggy”. (And, And, And! I’m sorry if you feel stressed,) the reason I live in the wild is because it’s so fun and living tame is so boring 🥱 😴 but if you add what I ask for I might go back. Please make the simulator I asked for but with legendary bosses like the one in ultimate fox. Thank you for making this game. I know this is a lot to ask for.



Glossary of things before the story:
Leashed dog: dog version of a kittypet 
Unleashed dog: stray, not truly wild.
Wild dog: wild, never thinks about leaving, unlike unleashed dogs. 
Clear Eyes: mark of the wild inside coming out.
Murky Eyes: you’re either a leashed or unleashed dog.


Story:

Thorn was alone, Abandoned, as the runt in the litter, her only hope was to be Leashed.
Her family died, and she would’ve too had her sister, Whitecaps, not named her. She limped into the wild. Stumbling, she trudged on until she met a fellow Unleashed Dog. His name was Papaya, and they both were losing their Murky Eyes. They were Wild dogs, proved by their Clear Eyes and incredible love for the wild. They had pups but only one survived. Thorn named her Whitecaps after her sister. 
There were many other pups that came after, but Thorn never forgot her first family.





Another story, about Whitecaps (sister, not daughter. Also critical that you read the first one, because there is a major reveal.) 


Whitecaps was alone. She had left her pack after they faked death and left her littlest sister on the streets. She set out to find her sister and tell her the truth. Instead she met another dog, his name was Sesame and they lived together. When they had pups, she named them Sea Salt and Coco. One day she was lying in their den when Coco sprinted up to her.  “Sea Salt has fallen in the river!” Whitecaps ran to the icy river but couldn’t see him. She spotted someone familiar jump in and pull him out. No. Way. It was Thorn! Her littlest sister! Whitecaps rejoiced as Thorn walked up to her. Wait, her eyes were so clear.
“ You’re a Clear Eyes!” Thorn looked at her blankly, then recognition snapped. “ Whitecaps!” Then she introduced her and Sesame to Papaya. “Did you know we’re brothers?” They said. They always were two separate packs, but they still hunt together, and we know them as the Moon pack, (Thorn’s pack) and the Sun pack ( Whitecaps’s pack)



Optional (not part of the story, but some people like sad endings. The real version is that no one dies)

No one realized that Sea salt had fallen into the river. Coco saw him and dived in. She pushed him out but he had drowned before she could get to him. She never got out of the water. 

End

( This is why it’s optional, and SUPER sad.

### 3/5 — We need more dogs

*2026-05-24, version 3.0*

First there is no Akita and husky and I only have those two breeds and there are no toy poodle

### 5/5 — Pls add this

*2026-05-20, version 3.0*

Make her be able to make a family and make her so she can move, like take walks, and if you get hit by a car, you instantly lay down, not  able to get up and make her fall 911 cause she knows that you won’t soon make it.

### 3/5 — It good but,

*2026-04-18, version 3.0*

I really love this game and all, but at one home site there’s a drive able car and when you get out of it, it sends you under the map and I can’t get out so pls fix that and pls make more amazing games!

### 5/5 — I have a question, but I also have answers for some people

*2026-03-08, version 3.0*

First, the answers so if you go to the bottom left corner, not the skull and bones go to the? And then once you arrive, you should see a big house and please don’t complain because I also have ultimate cat simulator and it’s a small house but ultimate dog simulator has a upstairs unlike ultimate cat simulator oh and that’s something you need to fix on ultimate cat simulator. Now my question how do I breed? Please reply like you could put ads on Magic Tiles 3 or even Dancing Sky 3 but if they say no say that they will lose one of their people that play their games now are you gonna do this? I’m gonna be playing it for the rest of the day well at least after 11 o’clock see ya. Hope you fix it. oh almost forgot I can relate to something with red fox and dog, even though she probably deleted it or something, but I can relate with a few things the dog she used for leveling up is also my dog for leveling up and I kind of relate to a lot of things with her or him see ya for real this time not like to leave the game though like see on the ad in a few hours, hopefully in a few days or week so if not hours I won’t wait months

### 5/5 — Amazing game!

*2026-02-16, version 3.0*

I love this game and I love the Labrador in the game!
