Game not loading
I can not give the game 5 stars because when I try to load into the game it stops at 95 percent I have already reset my iPad and deleted and redownloaded the app twice I have waited for the game to load in but it gets to 95 percent really quickly and then it stops and stays there forever are their any ways to fix that?
I used to love it
I love this games so much!!! I love dog breeds and dog games!! BUT, it stopped loading a couple days ago and I keep trying but it’s still not working :/ Landmark, please respond and tell me how to fix it!! I love my dogs and want them back.
Will not load
Will not load past 95 so never even got a chance to play. Tried multiple times.
Tries to force you to spend money too much
It could be fun, but unless you put in money you’re constantly losing against bots making it harder to get league points. The amount of ads you have to have to even get enough bones is ridiculous. That’s not even counting the forced ads if you don’t pay $10 to get rid of them. The game takes all of the joy out of it with how desperately they try to get you buy pack after pack after pack
Not working
I’ve been trying to play it for days and it’s just not loading at all I’ve tried turning off my WiFi and turning it back on deleting and reinstalling the app many times nothings been working
Won’t load
I’ve tried multiple times to delete and re-download the app and every time I try to start it up it stops at 95% and I can’t play it
Would rate 0
I have tried to email support twice now. I was playing last night when I clicked on “use 100 gems to unlock puppy slot” I clicked it because why not seems good and I had 160 gems. Well I got no puppy slot and no gems back. So I wasted all of my gems on apparently nothing and support is no help. I didn’t even play for 24hrs before this happening. I haven’t really touched it at all today. Because what’s the point? Why would I even consider putting money into this game for gems and stuff if I have to worry about the game stealing stuff?
The newest update
I hate the new update I even paid for the adfree game because I liked it so much but this recent update is making the game unbearable with all the stuff you have to do in the races. It would of been one thing if they weren’t so often but if they don’t make a new update soon I’m deleting this app
Ad rewards broken
You can’t exit out of the ads once the 30 seconds is done. Only way is to the close out game and then you don’t get the bonus reward.
Too many Ads
This game might actually be fun but there are just too many ads. It plays an ad every time you switch screens or do almost anything on the game. The optional ads are fine but then it plays hundreds more and honestly I feel like I don’t even get to pay because all I am doing is watching ads. The 1 star is warranted only because the game looks like it could be fun maybe…. Without all the ads. Otherwise I would give it 0 stars :/
New version is bad
The ads do not count as being watched after this new update which makes the game pretty impossible to play effectively. I emailed support before making this review and did not get any reply back.
Fun for a day
This game is fun for a day but you quickly realize that the only way you’ll get any further is by spending money. You need bones to level up dogs, but you can only get a small amount of them through ads, unlocking hampers, or a few daily goals. The competitions get harder and if you have no bones to level up your dogs then you can’t get the hampers that’ll give you bones and breed points. I can’t join the tournaments because I don’t have enough of the same type of dog, and even if I did, I’m back to square one of not having enough bones to train them to win anything. I love the idea but overall there is nothing else for me to do unless I spend real money.
Won't load
My game will not lose no matter what.
