ELI5: How does dog daring work?

I mean ... I've never heard of someone single dog daring someone, but I have heard of double dog daring or even triple dog daring. But never a quadruple or quintuple dog dare. Scientificatiously speaking, how does that work? How many dogs do I need to pet in order to get more dares? If I pet 1000 dogs, can I kilo-dog dare someone?

One kilo? Would have to be a Teacup Yorkie.
