Players must race around the board to pick up and deliver a telegram while avoiding a nasty bulldog. On their turn, players move their Huckleberry Hound counter (in either direction along the path) and the Bulldog (presumably toward their opponents) according to the spin of a spinner. If the mean dog lands on you, you are sent back several spaces unless you have a bone or steak card. First to complete the circuit is the winner.
