FluxPlays verdict
Our verdict
For a bonus chaser, yes; for a short-session player, no. The free spins are a real upgrade on the original's sticky wilds: each board a scatter unlocks starts with every wild already won, so a full round pays across four boards at once. The catch is the wait, because the base reels mostly return small line hits, and our best base spin paid 5.5x the bet.
Who it suits
Play this if…
- Bonus chasers: one late scatter can open a board that starts full of multiplier wilds
- Bonus buyers: the buy's RTP sits slightly above the base game's, so buying costs no return
- Series fans: it keeps the original's lines and wilds and changes only the free spins
Skip this if…
- Short-session players: most base wins are small line hits, and the paws on reels 1, 3 and 5 are the goal
- Max-win hunters who want the steepest ceiling in the family: other Dog House versions go higher
- You want a long bonus: it starts with 7 free spins and grows only through scatters on the newest board

The Dog House Multihold: Full Review
In The Dog House Multihold the free spins outgrow their own reels: scatters open up to four boards, and each new board starts with every sticky wild already won. Pragmatic Play released this branch of the Dog House series in February 2023 and kept the original's 20-line base game with its multiplier wilds. It suits bonus chasers and bonus buyers far more than anyone who wants the base game to carry a session.

The base game after our last base spin: 5x3 reels, one BONUS paw on reel 5 and the free spins buy on the left. FluxPlays demo test, 31 October 2026.
How The Dog House Multihold works
Three of a kind or more from the leftmost reel pays on 20 fixed lines, and a line pays its best win only. The kennel wild is the symbol that matters. It appears on the middle three reels only, substitutes for everything except the BONUS paw, and carries a random 2x or 3x.
Wilds on the same line add their multipliers together rather than multiplying them. So the most one line can carry in the base game is three wilds at the higher multiplier, a 9x line. The paytable climbs steeply at the top:
| Symbol, pays at $1 | 5 of a kind | 4 of a kind | 3 of a kind |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rottweiler | $25.00 | $5.00 | $2.00 |
| Shih Tzu | $17.50 | $3.75 | $1.50 |
| Pug | $12.50 | $2.50 | $1.00 |
| Dachshund | $7.50 | $1.50 | $0.75 |
| Collar | $5.00 | $1.00 | $0.60 |
| Bone | $3.75 | $0.75 | $0.40 |
| A, K | $2.50 | $0.50 | $0.25 |
| Q, J, 10 | $1.25 | $0.25 | $0.10 |
How the Multihold free spins work
Three BONUS paws on reels 1, 3 and 5 pay twice the bet and start 7 free spins on the top-left board. That board is only the first of four. The round plays on special reels, and each board has its own 20 lines.
Sticky wilds and copied boards
Every wild that lands on the newest open board sticks until the round ends. Three scatters, which land only on that newest board, unlock the next one in a fixed order (top right, bottom left, bottom right) and add between one and three spins. The new board does not start empty: every sticky wild already on screen is copied into it.
That copy rule is the whole game. A board opened late inherits a stack of multiplier wilds from its first spin, and with four boards open, one spin plays 80 lines through the same wild pattern. The round ends when the spins run out or a win reaches the cap.
Our bought round after free spin 4: the second board has opened with the first board's wilds copied in, and the bottom two are still locked. FluxPlays demo test, 31 October 2026.
Buying the free spins
The free spins can be bought for 100x the bet, and the rules give the buy an RTP of 96.08%. A bought round starts exactly like a natural one, on the top-left board, so the buy skips the wait but not the climb through the boards.
RTP, volatility and max win
The standard game's RTP is 96.06%, a hair below the buy's, so buying costs nothing in theoretical return. The version you load decides the figure, and its rules show it. Pragmatic labels the game medium volatility. The top win is 9,000x the bet, and a round stops the moment it gets there.

Played on Pragmatic's public demo on 31 October 2026 with play money from a $100,000 balance. The demo opened at $2 and was lowered to $1 (20 lines, 5 coins at $0.01); the game has no ante bet or other paid modes. The 100 base spins were started one at a time by a small in-page script that clicks the spin button, without autoplay. All 100 base spins and the one buy ran in a single session: $200.00 staked, $564.20 returned, ending at $100,364.20 on the server and on screen.
The bought round showed how much of the game sits on its last board. For three free spins only the top-left board played, and four spins in, the round stood at $20.00. Scatters then opened a board after free spins 3, 6 and 9, adding four spins in all. By the last spin all four boards were full of copied wilds, and that one spin paid $336.80, nearly two thirds of the round.
The base game ran on wild multipliers. All five of our best base spins came from wilds on line wins. On spin 33 a Dachshund and two wilds on payline 9 made a three of a kind worth $0.75. Both wilds were the lower multiplier, adding up to 4x, so the line paid $3.00 and two more lines paid on the same spin. Twenty-six base spins paid in all, most of them small. A natural trigger never landed, so the paw trigger is described from the rules. One bought round shows how the boards build, and it says nothing about what the buy returns over time.
The last free spin of our bought round with all four boards open: $188.80 won so far, before this spin added the round's biggest win. FluxPlays demo test, 31 October 2026.
Our bought free spins ended at $525.60 over 11 free spins, a single result. FluxPlays demo test, 31 October 2026.
Is The Dog House Multihold worth playing?
Not for its base game, but yes for its free spins. The base reels are the original's, small line wins lifted now and then by a wild, and they exist to deliver three paws. The round is where this version earns its place: copying the wilds into each new board turns a slow start into a finish where four boards pay at once. For us that is the best reason to play it, and the buy carries no RTP penalty.
Pick The Dog House if you want the original's single board, a longer run of 9 to 27 sticky-wild spins and no buy to tempt you. Pick The Dog House Multihold if you want boards that multiply your wilds and the option to buy straight into them.
In the demo, buy the free spins once and watch the moment the second board opens. The wilds it inherits explain the game better than any rules page.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you trigger the free spins in The Dog House Multihold?+
Land three BONUS paws, one each on reels 1, 3 and 5. They start 7 free spins on the top-left board. During the round, three scatters on the newest board open the next one and add one to three more, until all four boards play together. Our base session did not produce the paws, so we bought the round.
Can you buy the bonus in The Dog House Multihold, and what does it cost?+
Yes, the free spins cost 100x the bet. The buy's RTP is fractionally higher than the standard game's, so buying gives up nothing in theoretical return. A bought round starts like a natural one, with 7 free spins on the top-left board, and has to unlock the other three boards through scatters.
What is the max win in The Dog House Multihold, and how is it reached?+
The cap is 9,000x the bet, and the round stops as soon as it is hit. It comes from the free spins: with four boards open, the copied wilds work on up to 80 lines per spin, against 20 in the base game. Nothing in our session came close.
What is the difference between The Dog House Multihold and The Dog House?+
Only the free spins changed. The original plays one board with 9 to 27 sticky-wild spins and cannot be bought. Multihold starts with 7 free spins on one board, opens up to three more through scatters and copies its sticky wilds into each new board. It also adds a buy and a higher cap.
