Homeward Bound Drinking Game + Cocktail

Chance complains, Shadow believes, Sassy judges — drink when you agree with all three.

The Rules

  • Sip — Every time Chance narrates something in his signature dopey, confused tone
  • Sip — Every time Shadow encourages the others to keep moving toward home
  • Sip — Every time Sassy hisses at Chance or makes a cutting remark about dogs
  • Sip — Every time any of the three animals is separated from the other two
  • Sip — Every time a human mistakes the animals' behavior for normal pet activity
  • Drink Twice — Every time Chance causes trouble by acting before thinking
  • Drink Twice — Every time Shadow quotes something wise and old-dog philosophical
  • Drink Twice — Every time Sassy falls into water and is absolutely furious about it
  • Shot — Every time one of the animals is in genuine mortal danger
  • Shot — Every time the children back home tearfully talk about missing their pets
  • Chug — Every time Shadow crests the hill and limps toward Peter in the final reunion
