About the Game

Bird Dog is a trick taking game akin to Spades, Hearts, and Turn Up Euchre.

It was developed by Nathanial Meadow and friends in 2017.

In this game, players are trying to capture tricks and collect pairs of face cards. Points are awarded for face card pairs rather than the number of tricks. This along with the inclusion of the Bird Dog card makes for a rather interesting trick taking game.

Bird Dog uses a 24 card Euchre deck that includes the 9’s – Aces. Seven cards are dealt to each player.

Once the trump is determined the card that is the same rank and color as the trump bid card becomes the Bird Dog which is the highest ranking card for the hand.

At the end of the round, players look at the cards they have captured. Any face card pairs are worth points. First to 11 points wins.
