Quick guide
To start the game, hide all of the coloured bones in the bowls on the playing mat.
The players take turns to look under the bowls with their dog and try to be the
first to find all 4 of the bones in their colour.
Setting up the game
Place the mat in the middle of the table in such a way that all the players are able
to reach it easily. Put all 9 bowls on the mat. In each square there should be a
bowl with an opening on the top. Each player now chooses a colour and takes the
dog, bones and stash card in that colour. Each player now gives his 4 bones to the
player on his right. The youngest is the first to hide the 4 bones and does so as
follows:
1. He/she asks the other players to shut their eyes.
2. He/she then puts all the bones in a different bowl through the opening in
the top - without lifting the bowl.
3. The other players can now open their eyes.
4. The next player does the same, and so on, until all of the bones are
hidden.
Each player then places his/her dog on a square of their choosing. There can be
more than one dog in each square. Everyone ready to go? Then let the search
begin.
