Good news for the basic players of Alacrity! Basic accounts now start with 5 dog slots, which means they can own 5 dogs! All players have been given 3 extra dog slots to compensate for the change. Also, on the kennel page, for both account types, you can purchase up to 10 extra dog slots for Alacrity dollars. With this in minds, basics can own up to 15 dogs! Upgrades still earn 3 dog slots per year upgrade and can now unlock 3 extra slots purchasable via the kennel page, and 1 dog slot per two month upgrade and 1 purchasable via the kennel page.

Happy Easter as well! Floating around the site are ducks looking for doggy friends! Rumor has it there are even families of ducks looking for dog pals! Every account gets one random duckling via the news page, and the random events will only occur today, the day of Easter, and until midnight the day after Easter! Hurry and find them all, they will NOT be re-released. These companions increase the mood of your dog slightly ever 30 minutes you've been logged in. Each dog can have one companion, you can read more about them in the FAQ.

Smaller updates will now be posted in the "admin updates" forum, so only important news will stay here. :)

The user guide has been completed, you may see it on the "help" page. :) Thank you Riptide!

As a note to everyone, there are only 4 dog breeds released at this point in time: Jack Russell Terriers, Border Collies, Pembroke Welsh Corgis, and Papillons. The art for the other breeds is underway and will be released every 2 weeks or so.

If you have any questions whatsoever, message a moderator (they have icons to identify themselves!) after reading through the help pages if you still cannot figure something out. Another good resource is the help forums, because hundreds of people have probably already asked the question you're about to. ;)
