I got this game a long time ago and have been playing everyday ever since! It’s the type of game that you might get bored of if you play for like three hours, but like thirty minutes a day is amazing. I would consider myself a dog crazy person and the fact that I can take care of cute dogs with great graphics is so cool! I’ve downloaded a lot of other dog games, but none of them compare to how wonderful this game is. The only thing I would change about the game is that it can get annoying to wait that long for a new dog, but I get that it wouldn’t be good in the end because the game would go so fast. I would definitely recommend this game to other dog lovers and to people who would just like a fun game to play. The only other thing I would change is to just have more dogs because I’ve already gotten every dog you can get, so possibly just a few new dogs. But like I said I absolutely adore this game, and I play it ALL THE TIME!!! One of my fav dogs is Sharks the dachshund and I own a dachshund in real life so I love having all those different breeds. I would love to read a book about this, like how there is a girl who has a senior dog center and has these friends like Louise and Joshua, and it tells the stories of each dog and such…😜😅😂 I don’t know I guess that’s just the writer in me. But totally just download this game and if it’s not for you, then you can delete it. But if it is for you, keep playing it!!

I just got this game and it’s already so much fun I love how each dog is different. Me and my little brother love playing this easy game you can do so much! when I was reading the reviews for one of my favorite games(bunny haven) I read that another player enjoyed this game ( by the same company) I tried it out and it’s so much fun! I can’t put my phone down. This game is also very easy and you can design your sanctuary the way you want. I especially love doing the story plays. it’s so cute when the dogs lay down or go in other cute positions. There is pretty much nothing I would want to change about this game! Some thing I would add though is possibly aSimulation mode where you can be the dog! This game is really great and I’d love to see more games like it with possibly other animals. Another thing I think would be really fun to add is maybe having backstories for the dogs also if some of the dogs came in with injuries like needing prosthetic legs, having broken bones or some other big problems. Other than those few things, this game is pretty much perfect! I would consider myself a dog person and animal lover so seeing these adorable, realistically animated dogs is so much fun I love being able to take care of them, interact with neighbors, and simply just take care of dogs need. I highly recommend this game to any other dog and animal lovers out there.🐕‍🦺

Hello!!! I got this game about 1-2 years ago, loved it! I dont use it of play it as much as before, but it still sets good memories with the senior dogs. But i feel like i started getting less connected when (for me) it started to get harder. I mean if i remember right, you baked biscuits, fed and petted the dogs and then they were content! It started to get a bit boring to me i guess, as someone who has ADHD i really did love the game at first! But then i got a bit depressed, and soon visited the dogs less and less. Also, i was very disappointed when i got to the last dog we could foster/adopt. I think it was Sharky or something, but i really did want to keep going. I think it kept me more motivated when i knew there was still a pup that needed a home. And the events and updates were nice, but it was still baking biscuits. I wish there was more to the game. And i also (vividly) remember when i reached the full friendliness status for some of the dogs (Bagel, Mack etc). I really enjoyed interacting with their stories of such! But i must say, i was a BIT impatient with the stories. “No matter what i do, all i think is you. Even with my boo, y’know im crazy over you.” -Kelly Rowland (Nelly’s Dilemma)Anyways loved the game! Pups and kisses from, Yours Truly!

Adorable with an AMAZING concept

I love the concept of teaching younger audiences that old dogs are still worth adopting even though they won’t live as long as puppies or younger dogs. That’s a huge issue in modern society and no one wants them anymore even though they’re so perfect. I have a geezer myself and he’s still as lively as a puppy (as lively as a grumpy old curmudgeon of a lap dog can be at least). I love that the dogs are shown to have so much personality despite being old and I LOVE that they’re based off real life senior dogs that have been cared for and shown immense amounts of love despite being old. I would love to join the foster program for OFSDS if i didn’t live in an apartment. I only deducted a star because it’s a pain to level the dogs up to the next story point.. I love repetitive games (I’ve been playing magikarp jump every day for nearly a year), don’t get me wrong, but because the point threshold for getting to the next chapter increases SO much with each level, it feels like I’m making little to no progress unless I leave the dogs alone for several hours for points to accumulate, and I don’t like doing that. Repetitive games are only fun to continually play when there’s some variation in the repetition and there’s more things to do while waiting. Other than that it is so adorable and I love the idea and the art style and how easy it is to get coins. :)
