Does anyone remember this Old Board game?

[SiameseMoon]

If you had it growing up that is . It was a game of my childhood and its been driving me a bit mad I can hardly find anything about it.
I'll describe it as best as I can.

Its called ' Give the dog a bone' ( not to be mistaken with the 'Give a dog a bone: http://tesco.scene7.com/is/image/tesco/208-2955_PI_TPS717306?wid=250&hei=250&$Detail$
its not this one )
Basically Its a little black and white wind up dog and a red kennel that it had to start under and really tiny I think you scattered around the board.  It was a maze like game ( not tiled game like give a dog a bone ). It even came with a dice, but the numbers on the dice were bones.
It was out between 80's / 90's if I remember right. I have seen it on ebay only -once- and never again. Its not 'Diggity Dog / Woof Woof'

I've been trying to look it up but no such luck. All I keep getting is Give the dog A bone, rather then give THE dog a bone .

Any ideas anyone?

I only know of the version you say it's not.  Good luck!

It does sound familiar to me too. Were the bones on the dice different colors?

Nope, its not that version. I've looked into that version, its nothing like the one I had . My one was like a maze, not tiled like that one. The dice was just black with white bones.
I wish I could provide pics but, like I said I can't find -anything- for it, no info nothing. That's how old my version is

go to board game geek and ask around there someone might know what you are talking about.

Hmm.. Might do that. I did end up on that site when looking and didn't see it pop up there. So, guess I'll have a check when I can

I tried to find something. The best lead i could find was that a company called Waddingtons games apparently made a game called "Give the dog a bone" in 1992. http://www.reynolds-s-a.freeserve.co.uk/WG.HTM#GD
No picture, and i cannot find this game referenced elsewhere. But if the artwork of the other games looks similar, then it might be a lead
