The Dog House Multihold: Put The Pups in Kennels For Wild Multipliers and 9,000x Wins

The Dog House Multihold by Pragmatic Play returns to the same charming suburban backyard packed with playful pups we visited in the first entry. Sticky multiplier wilds, expanding free spin grids, and a 9,000x max win headline this sequel. I expected another ambitious twist like the Megaways version, so I was curious to see whether going back to basics would actually pay off.

The game sticks with a 5x3 grid and 20 paylines, where symbols pay between 0.10x and 25x your bet. I'd expected the series to keep experimenting after the Megaways release. Instead, it returns to its roots with only a few tweaks. The biggest of which comes from the wilds, which appear carrying 2x or 3x multipliers.

In my session, winning combinations arrived every 2 to 4 spins, with wilds appearing most often on reels 2 and 3 to complete extra paylines. Most returns landed between 0.20x and 2x my bet, though a handful of premium dog symbols lining up with multiplier wilds pushed payouts as high as 15x, making the regular gameplay feel much more rewarding than the paytable first suggests.

After around 50 spins, I finally landed 3 bonus symbols, earning the standard 2x payout and unlocking 7 free spins. During the feature, collecting three scatters unlocks another grid, awards extra spins, and copies every sticky wild from the newest unlocked grid onto the next one. Usually, I expect this sort of expanding setup in slots built around cash symbols, so seeing it used with sticky wilds felt a little unusual at first. 

Thankfully, scatters appeared often enough that I unlocked two additional grids without much trouble, and watching two sticky wilds get cloned into the new playfield made a noticeable difference. By the end of the bonus, those duplicated wilds had helped build the feature into a satisfying 98.55x payout.

The bonus ended up being far more enjoyable than I expected. The expanding grids give each new scatter a genuine sense of progression, and seeing sticky wilds copied across multiple playfields made every unlock feel worthwhile. It's a clever twist on the original formula without changing the personality that made The Dog House so popular.
