These dogs need a home.

.

Your rescue shelter is full of cute doggies...but some shed. Others bark. A few even bite...and the unlucky ones have ALL the problems!

Your job is to match all the doggies to a family.

Your dream family will adopt any dog. But your luck runs out: Some families are picky: no shedding, no barking -- they want a perfect dog, and you don't have one at the moment.

Only 4 dogs and 4 families can fit, so you have to work with the dogs you have.

That's life running a rescue shelter. There's good days and bad days: too many dogs, or not enough. The family who just missed their perfect dog.

And the shelter never has enough money. You'll earn some income with a few good matches, and landlords, banks, taxes, computers-- it'll be gone in a flash. With clever moves and a lot of luck, you'll beat the odds, find a home for every doggie, without going bankrupt.

Be decisive and loud, or lurk quietly. The game is gentle and noncompetitive. It's perfect for shy kids or younger siblings to lurk and watch the louder kids, but few can resist getting involved discussing which dog is best for which family. .
