OH! I know! You could make it scruffy, cause don't you know the classic rescue dog is a scruffy mutt? and the whole "poo-doo" mixing thing, then prick ears cause that's most popular, and a short tail that was brutally axed off in an accident, and OH! Short legs just cause he NEEDS a bit of "cute factor" and...WAIT, oh shoot, I failed, lol.

Oh, and anyone else remember the "Doodle edition"? They had some "ritzy" "modern" version of Monopoly several years ago and they replaced the "DOG" token with a Labradoodle? Guess that went by the way side...

OH! and almost forgot, because I no know one is interested, YES! I always HAD to be the dog! End of story, I got the dog, .

Me too Welshstump, me too.
If I couldn't be the dog I refused to play.

[ruffiangirl]

Umm I still only play if I can have the dog lol.

sadly I've never gotten to really play monopoly I used to beg my family when I was younger but the answer was always "It takes too long to play"

Well, if Monopoly is taking requests from special interest groups, I'd like to bring up the whole house/hotel issue. Really, in this age of rapid population growth wouldn't it make more sense for the property owners to reduce our footprint by graduating to population-dense apartment high-rises rather than hotels? What can the makers of this game be thinking? I mean, at the very least slap some solar panels on those homes to make them appear a little more eco-friendly. And come to think of it, did anybody even look into zoning bylaws before dropping hotels willy-nilly on Monopoly city blocks?

PETA needs to lighten up. It's a game, not a cardboard representation of real-world values.

I always wanted the horse and rider, but it seems that its not even a currently available gamepiece. am i imagining things that they used to have a rearing horse and rider piece?

Maybe it was a specialty version? I have a "Syracuse" version of the game in my basement, don't know what the game pieces are I never played it, and it's been sitting down there for more than a decade lol! I also have a "The Dog" version, never even opened it because I no longer have anyone to play so why bother.

No, I'm wondering where the "horse with a man on top" went too. That's the piece I always played.
