What is Save the Dog: Draw path to home

Draw a line, save the day! Guide an adorable pup through clever puzzles back to its doorstep.

How to Play

Use your mouse or finger to draw a path on the screen that the dog will automatically follow. Ensure the line avoids obstacles and leads safely to the doghouse to complete each level.

Tips for Playing

  • Start by examining the entire level before drawing to spot all obstacles and the dog's starting point.
  • Keep your path smooth and sloping gently; sharp angles can cause the dog to slow down or stop.
  • Use the undo or erase buttons to tweak your line without restarting the whole level.
  • Sometimes a shorter path is not the safest; take a detour to avoid hazards.
  • If you're stuck, try drawing a simple test path to learn where the dog actually moves.
