Dog Pound Dollars Review - Introduction

Dogs are certainly man’s best friend on this frenetic animal themed slot from Rival Gaming. The setting is the dog pound, so expect a range of canine symbols including the valuable poodle, doberman, Saint Bernard, spaniel, shar-pei and dachshund. 

Other symbols show a dog catcher, tennis balls, bones and a tin of dog food, although you shouldn't expect big prizes from these. The bulldog wild growls ferociously off the screen and will substitute for the other symbols, which is great since he’s worth the most! A timid-looking scatter doubles as the free spins symbol.

Dog Pound Dollars is generous with its free spins, too. Not only can you net 15, but any winnings are tripled via a bonus multiplier. Paylines can be adjusted, although the maximum is only 15. The slot features 5 reels, which stop to show 3 symbols apiece.

Theme, Graphics & Design

Given its setting inside a pound for abandoned dogs, Dog Pound Dollars could easily have been downbeat. Rival Gaming thankfully chose to go down the cartoon route instead, so we have a quirky and upbeat slot reminiscent of early Disney films like Lady and the Tramp and 101 Dalmatians. With the dogs at the heart of the show, symbol design had to be top-notch.

All the dog symbols are wonderfully quirky. Their individual personalities shine through, from the stern bulldog to the spoiled poodle, with the mischievous dachshund tangled in a fire hydrant in between! Some are more adorable than others, especially the puppy cowering on the scatter symbol, perhaps in fear of the dog catcher.

The reels are otherwise incredibly simple, which is a slight letdown. The only thing we have by way of setting is a murky cityscape, but it’s hardly visible because the grid is so large and the background is mostly plunged in shadow. A more detailed setting would have helped with immersion, but we can’t really condemn Rival Gaming for putting cute canines front and center!

Dog Pound Dollars RTP and Variance

The RTP of Dog Pound Dollars is a reasonable 95.4%, although that's a tad below the desired 96.5% figure. Volatility is a mystery (Rival Gaming hasn’t released the figure yet) but the top win is x50,000. It’s an exciting prospect, but players should remain realistic and remember that maximum payouts are extreme rarities.

How to play Dog Pound Dollars

With so many dogs to train, Dog Pound Dollars has a slightly chaotic vibe! These tips will help you gain control of the kennels before things spiral too far out of control.

1. It’s a good idea to visit the paytable first so you know what you’re playing for. There are two ways to access it: either tap “help” or press the large red “paytable" button above the grid.
2. From there, you can scroll through not just the paytable but also the bonuses and the game rules.
3. Set the number of paylines next. That’s easily achieved by opening up payline controls (just tap “select lines”) and choosing how many you want.
4. Your current stake appears on a silver coin with a pair of plus and minus keys underneath. Use those keys to set your bet. 
5. The option to play automatically is quite small, but it’s blue and next to spin. This opens a menu where you can select a specific number of spins, along with limits on how much you want to win/lose.
6. Always set a budget to keep gaming under control.
7. Press spin and let the dogs out!

Bet & Win Sizes

With a minuscule bet range of just 0.01 to 1, Dog Pound Dollars is hardly the slot of choice for high rollers. There are still some great wins across the paytable, however, not least the top single line payout of x10,000 for x5 bulldog wilds.

Five poodles = x 750

Five dog catchers = x 100

Five tennis balls = x 100

Five bones = x 100

Five tins of dog food = x 100

Paylines can be adjusted to an upper limit of 15, and the payment cap on Dog Pound Dollars is x50,000.

Dog Pound Dollars free spins

Bonus features on Dog Pound Dollars are a mixed bag. It’s disappointing that only free spins are on offer, but the free rounds are impressively rewarding, so we can’t complain that much.

Triggering free spins

The puppy scatter is easily the cutest symbol. If you can collect 3 or more, you’ll earn 15 free spins.

Free spin multiplier

15 free rounds are generous, but even more so is the multiplier that accompanies them. All winnings are tripled, so there’s plenty of reason to celebrate when the scatters line up.

Verdict

Dog Pound Dollars is a dog lover’s dream. It's cute, playful, and its canine cast shines with personality and fun.

The small bet range is a mark against this slot, and while we would normally complain about there being only one bonus feature, that isn’t too much of an issue here. Fifteen free spins are more than enough, and the x3 multiplier makes up for the lack of other features.

Rival Gaming has worked its magic to create a slot that’s endearing and overwhelmingly cute, but one with gameplay serious enough to entice even veteran slot enthusiasts.

Dog lovers are advised to visit The Dog House slot next, where another lovable cast awaits.
