Voller Hund ("full dog") or Hund, possibly known in Austria as Hundern or Hundspiel,[1] is a German card game that is suitable for children. It is named after the Eight of Leaves, the Dog (der Hund), which used to depict a dog in old card packs. The equivalent card in a standard pack is the Eight of Spades.[2]
