Despite the name of this online slot, it’s the oriental inspired symbols that feature more than the pup, with only a collar and dog on the reels, these can easily be drowned out by the lucky number 8 symbols, Asian boy and girls, oriental text and golden hat symbol. The colour red is featured in the background, hardly surprising as it is the colour of good luck and fortune. Other symbols that you will find floating around the 5x3 grid are a wheel and card values of J, Q, K and A with some ancient inspired artefacts attached to them.

As ever, the control panel allows you to do all manner of tasks, from viewing the pay table of payouts, to adjust your bets with the coin denomination button and the bet per line button. The win lines can be adjusted, but to give yourself the best chance of winning, you should have all 40 in play in every spin, if you can’t afford this, lower your stake to reflect this change.

The biggest cash on offer is awarded via the 1,000x multiplier, all that you need to do is tempt five of a kind of the ancient text symbols onto your win line and hey presto, your stake is multiplied by 1,000x its value. The barking mad pup will award half that of the jackpot, with a 500x multiplier, whilst the Asian boy and girl, award 200x and 100x your stake.

Starting with the wilds and scatters, you can generate some extra cash by these two symbols, which are the ancient text (wild) and the golden hat (scatter). The wild symbol substitutes for all other symbols (bar scatter and wheel) to create wins and just two scatter symbols in view, will generate a 1x multiplier cash reward. Should you manage to land three scatter symbols in view, you will trigger the free spins feature with 10 free games and a 2x multiplier attached to all winnings. During your free games, additional wild symbols are added to the reels, to help award extra wins and bigger cash. Two wheel symbols on reels 1 and 5 will trigger the Wheel Power bonus, where you have the ability to trigger up to 4 reel re-spins with a 25x multiplier.

If we were to describe this slot, we could list it as an oriental themed slot, an animal themed slot and money and wealth themed slot, because all three are featured. Strangely enough, the design and theme works well together and there is plenty of bonus features to get your hands on while playing, that’s for sure. Whether you bet big or small, there’s lots of ways to bag a decent sized win. The free spins feature is fast and allows you to generate some great wins, but the wheel power game is another that awards a lot for a lot less, with big multipliers accompanying a max of just 4 reel re-spins.

We managed to win over 3,500 coins for a 40 coin spin, during free games and our top win via the wheel power bonus was 2,500 coins – great amounts for such a low stake. No matter what bonus you prefer, it will take a while to trigger them, in this medium variance slot machine, so look after your bankroll, because you will go long periods without getting a bonus feature. Lucky Shihtzu has an RTP of 96.03%. Try today in test mode, before switching to real cash and see just how rewarding the little pup can be.
