After accepting to play, Link is instructed by Mamamu Yan to choose any dog from the corral; that is the dog Link will bet for before the race starts. The dog choice can be made easier if Link wears the [[Mask of Truth]] while lifting a dog. This will allow him to read the dog's mind to determine how the dog feels about the day's race. If the dog he chooses places first, he will win triple his bet. If the dog places second, he will win double the bet. For third to fifth places, he will break even. Any place lower wins nothing, and Link loses the Rupees he bet.<ref>{{Cite|If the dog you brought me takes 1st place, you get triple your bet. 2nd place gets double.

The thoughts of the dogs start with either "Ruff," "Rrr-Ruff!," or "Hoo-whine." These are what determines the general placement of the dogs. Dogs thinking something starting with "Ruff" generally finish near the front, those with "Rrr-Ruff!" near the middle, and those with "Hoo-whine." near the end. The precise order the dogs will finish in is random, with the exception of the gold dog and the blue dog.
 
If the golden dog is thinking anything starting with "Ruff," it will almost always get first place, and always at least second place. Once the golden dog has won after having a "Ruff" thought, it will tend to keep having "Ruff" thoughts until Link leaves the area. The blue dog will almost always lose very badly no matter what it is thinking — often trailing far behind the others and occasionally even being lapped by them. The other dogs are rather typical and will usually win only if thinking a very positive thought.
 
Mamamu Yan will caution Link against participating if he is wearing any of the [[Transformation#Majora's Mask|transformation]] masks. She warns that the dogs would be too afraid of [[Goron Link]],<ref>{{Cite|Oh, well, actually, I don't think this is right for you...

I mean, look at you... You know what doggies do to trees, don't you?|Mamamu Yan|MM}}</ref> In each respective case, all the dogs will react to Link's presence accordingly. For Goron Link they will all growl until approached where they run away in fear, for Zora Link they will all follow him lovingly, and for Deku Link the dogs will all attack him.

For the Mini-Game, see Dog Race 500.

The Doggy Racetrack is a location in Majora's Mask.[1]

Features and Overview

The Doggy Racetrack can be found in the west end of Romani Ranch. It is overseen by Mamamu Yan and is open from 6 AM to 8 PM.[2] It features a dirt racetrack surrounding a fenced corral, where 14 Dogs frolic: four white, three beige, three gray, two brown, one blue, and one gold. At the back of the corral is an awning with a Treasure Chest on top containing 50 Rupees; it can be reached with the Hookshot, by planting a Magic Bean in a nearby Soft Soil, or by climbing up from the fence as Zora Link. Along the southern wall of the Doggy Racetrack is a Gossip Stone.

Link can come here to watch and bet on Dog races in the Dog Race 500, earning Rupees rewards on successful bets. Winning 150 or more Rupees from the Mini-Game will earn him a Piece of Heart. By wearing the Mask of Truth, Link can determine the mood of any Dog he picks up, which can indicate how well they'll perform in the race.[3][4][5]
