How to play Walkies the Board Game with your dog
- Set up the board and choose characters: Place the board on a flat surface. Each player picks a dog character token. Have your real dog settle nearby with a bed or mat. Common mistake: letting your dog walk on the board. Keep them in a designated spot.
- Explain the goal and rules: The aim is to reach the end and claim the Dog Toy Trophy. On your turn, roll the die and move your token. Land on a space to draw a question card from one of four categories. Checkpoint: remind younger players that correct answers earn Paw Tokens, which are needed to win.
- Answer questions and collect tokens: Read the multiple-choice question aloud. Answer correctly to collect a Paw Token. If you're unsure, guess—there's no penalty. Your dog can be the 'audience' for dramatic pauses. Common mistake: rushing through questions. Take time to discuss the answer with the family.
- Involve your dog between turns: When it's not your turn, give your dog a small treat or a gentle scratch behind the ears. This keeps them engaged without disrupting the game. Checkpoint: use low-value treats so your dog doesn't get too excited and jump on the board.
- Finish the game and celebrate: The first player to reach the end and collect enough Paw Tokens wins the Dog Toy Trophy. Give your dog a special treat or a quick game of tug as a reward for being part of the fun. Common mistake: forgetting to reward your dog at the end. They'll remember the positive experience.
