Description
A game by Dan + Lisa
As a rookie musher, foster a dogsledding team whose skills will grow if they’re treated right. Week by week, get to know your dogs’ unique traits, and carve your story into the trails of the Mount St. Something region.
Dog Sled Saga has a pick-up-and-play dogsled racing. Each dog’s speed is hindered by hunger. Lob a limited supply of food to them to keep at full speed. Hazards on the track await.
By the time you reach the top league, you’ll need to:

- Hire and fire dogs
- Leverage fame to earn sponsorship deals
- Bring on employees for multitasking
- Breed puppies
and more.
Features:
- Pick-up-and-play racing
- Deep team management simulation

Dog Sled Saga Reviews
First of all please fix the lag when in the middle of races (crashing) also we think it would be cool if like after we finish the story the dog in the story should like when you are l.7 come and be the best dog you own and be nautral anywhere with no faults plz plz plz Also sorry if this is bad grammer.
We found about this game from Stacyplays on YouTube we searched it on the Apple Store but it wasnt on their atleast a few years later we found it! Its great for people who love dogs love how you can choose your dogs and have a bond with them 5 STARS from us! You got our vote (XD its not shark tank!!)
This game is amazing we love the intensity and the adorable dog and all the new updates, but we have a iPhone 8 its pretty new and it keeps freezing like every 15 minutes and it especially gets annoying when Im racing so please fix this. -Please add mixes and stuff like that -Also you should be able to overrule a natural thing so you can teach them that than the skill they are good at. -Also add more dogs!!! -Also try to make the story better, like will there be a time when we go against our rival in a really hard event and every time we beat him we gain extra cash. -Also we should try and meet the dog aurora we just think itll make the game a lot more popular and you should consider it.
We absolutely love Dog Sled Saga. We always play it to relieve stress because it’s such a peaceful game, but intense in its own way. However, we breeded our black lab and German shepherd and was able to name the puppy, but after the 7 days we were supposed to get her, she wasn’t in the kennel. We were super confused and we think it is a bug. Other than that this game is superrrrrrr good we highly recommend it if you are stressed and just need a little time to relax and get away from real life.
We love this game!!!!!! It tends to freeze like every fifteen seconds when Im away from it which annoys us and we do wish we could get mixed breeds but other than that that the game is flawless! We love our dogs! We have Rory, Striker, Cole, Amber, and Chase if you want name suggestions. Its such an amazing game and we suggest it to anyone who like animals and sports! Thanks to the creator for this awesome game Regards, GalaxyWolf64
So yeah we really do love this game and if your reading this you should get it! But there are some bugs in the game. For example for some reason when we win a race it just freezes then skips to when its over? Of course we still get money but we just dont get it. Also it randomly crashes and sometimes we have to redo races wich is annoying. But still its a really great game and you should try it! But since it havent been updated in a while or it only updates on laptop and computer it may glich. But overall its a generaly a good game! So yeah we hope the creator responds and now go download the game or read more reviews because some people put hard work into both options!
We love Dog Sled Saga, definitely our favorite video game! We highly recommend! There is this glitch though. Whenever we try to rename a dog (example: Lionel Q Puppypuppy to Buddy), it freezes. So that is one of the things. It will also sometimes have a glitch that shows our dues on all the upcoming races. That is all though! We think you should totally buy this and fall in love with your adorable pooches! There are also non running breeds, as in Schnauzers, Saint Bernards, German Shepherds, and Shih-poos. That are all cute! We are a total dog lover so GET THiS GAME!!! We also think when you breed there should be mixed breeds.
We play this game every day it is so amazing we showed this game to all of our friends and we have challenges. The only thing we would add to the app is more dog breeds and maybe a mission after you get to the last league you can find Aurora. Overall we adore this game.
We love this game we were inspired to play because a YouTuber we watch was playing this so we downloaded it. There are a few glitches like when your playing your screen will freeze every once and awhile this is annoying when your in the middle of a race. We would love to see more updates on this game so please add more!
We love this game, it is very fun, although we found that we are waiting quite a while for anything to happen. We think that the days in the game are literally days?? All we have to do between race times which are literally days apart is look around and pet the dogs. Is there a way to make days go by faster and have more things to do for people that have just started and don’t have sponsors and stuff?? We might be missing something but otherwise that is a suggestion. Also please add more dogs like collies and greyhounds, ect. Please let dogs get injured and have a vet! Overall we do love this game though!
This is amazing we really love it, This game is highly recommend for strategy, racing, and adventure! This game has a lot of effort put into it and we love the graphic style. We think this game is a little underrated, although it might not be available to all devices, Theyre will be a gameplay on our YouTube Channel -CrocodileGamming. Theyre has been some data saving problems but overall its something you should download.
We love this game but there should be some new breeds of dogs Like the beagle and Irish wolf hound. And you should be able to customize your character. Lots of people are asking to put a home icon so you can customize your house and bring a dog or two home with you. Maybe make a birthday calendar so you can celebrate the dogs birthday and yours. We hope you consider these ideas into sled dog saga From. Game lover.
To the amazing developers of Dog Sled Saga: we LOVE THIS GAME! ITS SUPER FUN, and plus the doggos are so cuteeeee! We would love to add a few things into this, and point out a few things. ADDITIONS: 1. Could you add in something like if the dogs got loose and bred with surrounding canine packs? 2. Different colors of husky. 3. Cheaper upgrades for the roster THINGS we WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT: 1. Schnauzers are NOT racing dogs. They are little and would get trampled by the bigger dogs. Sorry. 2. Bills are probs not as cheap. 3. We thought there could be two dogs in one kennel…?
This game is so beautiful and it seems to be completely hand-crafted by developers who truly care about what their game looks like and what their players think of it. The dogs are adorable and have so much personality and individuality that you find yourself growing attached to your team more than you thought possible for virtual dogs.
Worth the money. That’s all we have to say. Don’t want to spoil the game.
So, we were going to breed two of our dogs. But when the time came to get our dogs back (and the puppy), nothing happened. The game acted as if it was a normal next day. So now our only wheel dog and our best lead dog is gone! Please fix this!
If you are down here to see if it is worth it, we think it is! We know some people have some problems but we have not come to any problem at all! This game is so worth it! The dogs are adorable and you can hire people and go on races and you can get to better leagues! We love everything!
This game is so fun and addicting we highly recommend getting this game.
Hi! We love the game butcan you update the game? Update Idea 1:Minigames You can interact with your dogs in any way! Bathing, playing, and feeding! Update Idea 2:Sled dog running. You can go on a sled whenever you want and see wolves, bears, musk ox, foxes, goats, bighorn sheep, and snowy hares! ;3 Update Idea 3:Gamepage for puppies! When your dog gives birth, they can have multiple pups on a screen when they had pups! Update Idea 4:Puppies will be pups when they are born! When you check a puppys info there will be a growth bar! Update Idea 5:Puppy Minigames. You can play a minigame with There was a bug that leaves us stuck to pay the dues but we cant afford it and im stuck at the dues can you fix it? Them! Tap the floor to make the puppy run! Update Idea 6:Snowstorms!!! When a snowstorm comes, you will be notified! You must keep your dogs inside at all times! Hope you enjoyed the update ideas!
One of the best especially for being free like we would say 10/10 also one suggestion less expensive for the kennel expansion Dear Wolfslain who we dont know Siri the Pixel Biologist and Stacy Plays Are our favorite YouTubers!

We love this game but theres one problem. The game will freeze! We REALLY hope you can fix the bug. And a few questions. Why are there leagues? Why do we need musher lisences? Thats all. Bye!

We were obsessed with Sled Dog Racing and the Iditarod since we found out about it, but lost interest when we couldnt pursue this passion virtually, because obviously we couldnt do this in real life. But then we found this! Okay, so, we were skeptical when we found out that it was worth 99¢. We were watching YouTube videos on it and it looked really fun! So, we bought it with our own money. At first it wasnt really good and was a little confusing and boring, but we got better at it and it got super duper fun! We love how its not real-time, so you have time to care for dogs before races and pay bills when you have enough money. At first we were really tight with money, but then we were able to expand our kennels, have a puppy, and hire two more dogs in the span of two or three months. Now we have $10,000 over our bill for league seven, with eight dogs and an employee who trains dogs really well! The only thing we recommend you add is an option to pay the virtual money to get more slots for sponsors, since we have all the spots filled up and would like to add level four rope. Summary: worth every penny! Which thankfully, is only 99!

Hey! We want to start off saying you have a great game here. We love sled dogs and your game spoke to us! The dogs are charming and the gameplay is so much fun. We've owned Dog Sled Saga on an old iPad and a newer iPad, so some of the things we mention may be related to that. We need to mention some bugs, and then Ill mention some additions. After re-downloading Dog Sled Saga, everything seemed the same as it had on our old iPad, but we've noticed some little issues: Compared to our old iPad, the animations run faster. We can still tell what the words are saying (like on the results screen when it flashes the bits of information at you) and whats going on, but the animations move so quickly its unsettling. Like the whole game sped up a bit. The adorable 8-bit music is one of our favorite parts, and now it seems to flicker. Its hard to describe, but the music will have little static flickers, going on and then off really quickly; even when we had it on low volume. This could be our device, but its never really done that before. The screen will slow down during races and sometimes everything stops for less than a second. This usually occurs when Im aiming to throw treats to dogs, so it will occasionally cause the treat to miss. Sometimes music would stop playing altogether on our old iPad until we went into a race or triggered a new song. We think it was caused from doing too many actions at once. We havent played it on our new one long enough to experience it again, but it may be there. The interface for petting dogs, moving around slots (for the races), and seeing your dogs stats in the lodge sometimes doesnt respond very well. This isnt really a glitch, but the interface for reading Raleighs answers and notes is slightly difficult. The scrolling part is tough to execute. Neither is this a glitch, and we dont experience it very often anymore (at first it was there since we were learning how to play). But when a dog gets fatigued (especially deep fatigue), it can be painfully tedious to get them back on track and keep the team going, especially when you only have three dogs. Back on our old iPad, we had gotten pretty far in the game. We kept upgrading our kennel and had maybe four dogs and free spots. We really wanted to have puppies, but every time we got another dog (since it said we could only have puppies after having a certain amount of dogs) it raised the number or it wouldnt let us. How do you get puppies? Here are some additions! The dog breeds are fascinating, but what if there were more weird and specially purchased types? Like a wolf, or a robot dog, or a coyote. More of those groovy soundtracks would be awesome, since the game is limited to about ten songs. On our old iPad, we had gotten to the point where we had passed every single part of Auroras story, but nothing happened. We never did get past League 7, but we've read nothing happens even then. Perhaps you could find Aurora running around in a race? More rivalries or friends in the plot, and maybe more plot events in it, too? The current customization options are lots of fun, but what about decorating your lodge and your sled? Getting a metal sled, or perhaps a new hat for your player character. Thats about it! Dog Sled Saga is amazing, with addictive gameplay and adorable dogs, and would have ruled in the SNES days. Nuff said. -MegaManFanForever.

We love everything about this game. The designs are super cute, especially the Samoyed. But we do have a few suggestions. One, we think when you breed the dogs, the puppys should be in the kennels. It would be super cute if you had like little puppy races and the puppys grew up over time. Two, please add more dog breeds! We really want a Golden Retriever and some mixed breeds would be cute to. Third, we think it would be cool if you could like, favorite a save slot. Lastly, we think it would be cool if you could still have the retired dogs, but not race them. Like they could be in a separate kennel that cost money, like maybe 4000? If you dont add these we will still keep playing ur amazing game! If you love dogs and racing, we totally recommend this game!
___
We really want to see more breeds and specialties of breeds not just personalities. Maybe make white husky better at the end of a race, and make malamutes better in tight situations. But what we want to see most is the Akita added to the game. Its our favorite dog and we really want to see a black and white one added. We really hope you see this and hopefully add it. And maybe add some more complexity to late game with special breeds? Thank you for the awesome game Devs!

We played this game ever since it came out, and we love it. As an animal lover to all creatures (including dogs) this game is amazing. It has amazing graphics and we love the art style and storyline. However, we cant help but notice that this game seems to be abandoned... As the winter event was supposed to end January 3 but it is now February. We just wanted to say we hope you arent giving up on this game, we love it so much. And a few suggestions we have is that maybe you could add in some more dog breeds or add in a feature to have more interaction with the dogs, like maybe feeding them! We hope you take this review to heart, and thats all.
___
It does freeze up and it stops and goes and reacts that pattern please fix that and also add costumes for you dogs that cost the game money that you earn from races so your dogs are stylish and cuter than ever.
___
We love this game but after we play for like 25 to 30 minutes it just freezes but overall it is a great game we love dogs and pixel games too so this is a great game for us and other people that like dogs or even dog sledding games and pixel!
___
We love the game but there is a glitch we hate. And we think it makes the game bad when it happens. This is a glitch we've had it was our first ever save and it was the best save. But one day we bred our dogs and then somthing happend it kicked us from the game. And when we got back in it kept saying that our new dog was ready to be named but it just kept saying that. This was a few years ago so if its already fixed then thats good but pathetic game we s Still amazing we think it deserves a 100 out of 5.
___
Ok so makers of the game pay attention to the following: This is THE BEST 2D GAME IN THE WORLD also THE BEST DOG SLED GAME IN THE WORLD ok but like really ARE YOU DEAD?!?! You have not updated this game in like 3 YEARS years 3 trips around the sun people so if you are not dead please update the game please it would make us and a lot of other people really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really HAPPYYYYYY so pls update the game like just add being able to feed the dogs. Is that to hard? If its not do it please Help us dog sled saga staff, your middle schoolers to college students only hope.
___
Such a good game! We love the animation and the dogs are so cute! We love everything. But theres one glitch we got we paused a race and we couldnt resume it. But other wise this game is great definitely worth it. We feel bad when ever we sell a dog witch is amazing how the game makes you connect with virtual dogs lol. This game is so great it works perfectly no glitches (except for one). Maybe add some customization for the sled it would be cool. And if your reading this and you like dogs buy it its totally worth it best money we've spent on video games. Seriously. Suggestions Geting in to league 6 is so hard (at least for me) maybe have like a option to pay money to get your dogs stats higher because our new dog is just like horrible and is hard to balance with the rest of our other dogs so maybe make it a bit easier but we enjoy a challenge too. Thank you for making a amazing game!

Hi, we love Dog Sled Saga so much!! It is an amazing game and theres so much to do with the dogs! Its definitely one of our favorite games! We do have a suggestion though, one that would make Dog Sled Saga even better! We were thinking it would be cool to have a retired dog section for your dogs. It could be a separate building or just attached to the main building. We have a dog that we really love. Shes our first dog we ever got and shes been our favorite ever since. We want to retire her from dog sledding though. We dont want to sell her, we just want to simply retire her. It would be cool if there was a building we could put her in where she would still be ours, but she couldnt race anymore. That way she could also keep her level that shes at (otherwise it would go down if we dont train her). We dont know, it just seems like a fun idea. Thats all. :) Bye!
___
We LOVE THIS GAME! There is one problem... BILLS! We think we can all agree that the bill make people want to stop playing. Please take away the bills we are kids we dont need to pay them till we are 20. Getting rid of dogs really upsets us we had to get rid of a dog the improved our whole to to pay the STUPID bill. We are not trying to offend you but the bill idea is stupid. If you wont get ride of the bills can you at least let us buy money to pay them off. This game is great but it would be the best game we've ever played if there were no bills. Thanks for reading and please take away the bills.
___
Its such a good game its very addicting but theres a MASSIVE bug: The Crashing. When we first got this game it crashed once every 30 minutes or so depending on where we were we thought it was normal considering that its an older game (maybe idk) and it got progressively worse after that from even 5-7 minutes of playing and it crashes, also when we close the app and turn of our phone the music still plays after a couple of seconds it stops its annoying and kinda worrying, any who if any of the games creators see this message please try and fix the crashing its hard to play and very rage worthy Thank you for reading this we wish all the best, -SugarFox.
___
It's the best game we're serious. Your not going to get bored we promise. At first we thought it was going to be one of those games that we could finish in a day, But no. It's challenging and fast, plus who doesn't love a cute dog game? Multiplayer would be fun to add as well as more dog breeds. Probably the biggest problem in this game is that it's VERY ADDICTING. We're warning you that you will get HOOKED.
___
Love this game but, beagles pls? And u should add something allowing the player to make every dog different, like add different colors to dogs or different patterns. Also pls pls pls add more dogs, beagles, retrievers, Newfoundlands, Akitas, and Bernese mountain dogs pls. That would be great! We love this game though!!!!! Keep up the good work!!!
___
The 8-bit graphics are so fun and cool! The gameplay is amazing, its worth EVERY dollar! It was a little laggy at first, but now its smoother than a babys skin! We do have a suggestion tho, maybe some more dog breeds and more leagues. That will be very cool. No negative output for this app!
___
This games is one of our favorites so far but we think you should add more dog breeds for example Akita Golden retriever.
___
This game is great! The game also is great for people who love dogs and games! Anyway, all we have to say is we Love It! But when you have to pay your bills, and you cant afford it you get rid of a helper, or a dog. We just had to get rid of two of our dogs, delta and fern! Delta is a St. Bernard, and fern is a brown husky. Its so sad when you have to kick them off the team! It breaks our heart to see their ears down and tail between their legs! We just got delta back and we had to kick fern, which she was on the team for 180 days! Could you make that less heartbreaking please? Its so sad! Their Ears Go Down With Their Tail Between Their Legs! Or You Could Have Them Unregistered. Like retired. You Can Still Have Them But You Cant Use Them In A Race. Also, Another Suggestion Is That You Can Buy Powerups Like x10 Money In a race or something like that. The next One is that you can buy currency with real money! The Last One Is you could also add house items that you can sell or different harnesses that are like lvl 3, 4, etc. Thanks For Hearing us! ~ ~xXSkywolfproductionsXx (W)

Awwww we love this its like pixel art stuff.
___
This game is so fun we love it so much we could play it all day we hope they add in more dogs.
___
Im not sure if your very interested in adding any new dog breeds to the game, but if you are, here are a few suggestions~ 1. Alaskin Klee Kai 2. Beagle 3. Basset hound 4. Blue tick hound 5. Hound 6. Yorkshire terrier 7. Black husky 8. Black schnauzer 9. Canadian Eskimo dog 10. Chinook 11. Greenland dog If you would add some or even one of these dogs, we would be very pleased. Especially the hounds, we would love to see their pixelated model.
___
We love this game and we just cant stop playing it! Theres one problem though... We got to leave 5 and have been training and racing dogs to get another middle dog to get to leave 6, but even after the new dogs have been fully trained, their exhaustion rate is still dangerous. Im not sure if its just our game or if it is a glitch that happens in everyones game. What should we do..?
___
We love his game, it's very addicting and entertaining, but we bread our 2 dogs breeding time ran out, we have not gotten them back nor the puppy they have been missing for a while now and they were our 2 favorites.
___
We always play this game on road trips because its fun and can pass the time well. The problem is, the game has not been updated in a long time so there are bugs and glitches! Also theres been the same things for a while, like the same dogs, same sponsors, and same storyline. We like the game it just needs some new updates.
___
This game is great and very fun, we would recommend it.
___
Okay, this game is amazing, seriously. But we have one problem. So we've already joined league 6, but there's still SOOOO many races with only three dogs! This is really annoying, as we prefer races with 4 or more dogs on this game. Other than that, this game is AWESOME.
___
So we will play and out of nowhere it will freeze we've messed with the controls and everything Im now trying undownloading and redownloading but we LOST MY PROGRESS Im still mad please fix this.
