Very nice simple match-3 game, a bit of audio would have gone a long way!

a match-3 seems like a fun beginner's exercise -- while not impossible to initially implement, there are a lot of quirks to it that require a thoughtful approach, and all sorts of ways to improve on it
i'll echo that animation on moving tiles would really do a ton -- and personally, i like that you went for a theme that's a little off-kilter. good work
Oh no, the sweet, innocent doggies! I noticed a bug where if you press the mouse down next to a piece that you previously released the mouse on, the tiles get swapped. Also matching could use some feedback to indicate what exactly is happening. Overall though a nice game, I love how you twisted the theme into something gruesome.
First I didn't underhand why after the merging I get this parts again. Maybe keep it empty for a few seconds?
I quite like the graphics, I really want to put the doggy back together ^^
From a gameplay standpoint, you really need to animate the "swap" of the parts, the "disappearance" and the falling of the pieces above. Right now it is difficult to read the consequences of what I just did :)
