Ten-Bone Bowling

Players set up a small rack of pins and place wagers on how many pins the dog will topple when sent after a tossed ball. Each round one player throws the ball beyond the pins and the dog chases it, potentially scattering pins; players record the number knocked down to resolve bets and score points over multiple rounds. The game supports 2–10 players, is suitable for family play with children and dogs, and can be played indoors or outdoors. Sessions are quick to learn and repeatable, with simple scoring across five rounds and a reward for the dog after play.
