Dogs and Tails Slot Review 2024
Pampered pooches and feisty felines don’t always see eye-to-eye, but Gamzix has made sure they’re on their best behaviour in Dogs and Tails!
Its always been said that Cats and Dogs naturally dislike each other, and most of the time that’s true, but will both of these domesticated species be able to put their differences aside?
Lots of people have a soft spot for Cats and Dogs, and it seems that slots developers do too! Cat Clans and The Dog House from developers Snowborn Games and Pragmatic Play stand out as 2 of the best cat and dog-themed slots by far, but will Dogs and Tails push them off their podiums?
Let’s play on and find out!

Dogs and Tails might not be the biggest smash hit in the ‘Cats and Dogs’ genre of slots, but it could be a fluffy favourite for those looking for something as dependable as their loyal companions.
It’s fairly tame as far as animal slots go, but its simplicity will undoubtedly attract those with an aversion to complex slots, of which there have been many of late. Dogs and Tails doesn’t reinvent anything, but it reaffirms our appreciation for when the basics are done right.
We couldn’t quite decide which of the bonus rounds we liked more in Dogs and Tails. They’re similar in some ways, but the execution of how wilds work is different, making for an interesting experience.
Different bonus rounds are great for the longevity of a game. Those infatuated with Dogs and Tails will find themselves sticking ar found to see both bonuses, and the results that it can deliver can be rather impressive.
Overall, Dogs and Tails probably won’t ascend into the hall of fame, but it can leave a positive lasting impression if you give it a chance.
