    Yess like we would still have wolves but we wouldn't be able to tame them, like we cant tame ocelots anymore. It would be a different spawn egg which would be named dogs. This is all I really want in the game lol.

    I think this is a great idea so people can possibly have their dogs in the game if they are not a cat person it allows them to connect to the game more and interact

    I'd love to see different dogs spawn for different biomes, or see them spawn randomly like cats can.

    If this happens, could different sizes come for example: Pomeranians, pug, husky, German Shepard and great hound. Plus it would be cool if you could pet dogs, to make their health go up as well as a dog bed so they can also heal, and if they are a puppy they could grow faster with every sleep that they have.

    Yes but I think they should go for what they did with the ocelot
    They made a feral animal and reskined it and mad a whole new domestic cat mob
    Some villages have cats while other have dogs and even better, lets do the contest the had with cats but his time it’ll be dogs!

    More wolf/dog fur/skin options would be cute. Brown, black, dark & light grey would be nice. Maybe some that look like huskies or German shepherds too!

    since they now have villages with different types of cats, why not dogs?

    I like the pack idea that another comment mentioned (WolveReigner781). Similar to horses, they spawn in small groups with a base color, but their patterns vary. So per group of wolves, they would all have the same base color (black, brown, white ect) and each may have different markings (socks, back color, tail tips or muzzle color.)

    i agree with user ScremingChild!!

    i think it should be similar to how the cats are found/tamed


    where wolves are found in forests, but stray dogs are found in villages alongside or instead of cats (randomly generated or something)

    and give the same amount of different skins for dogs as cats! <3

    I’ve been wishing for this ever since it happened to the cat!!! Different breeds though, not colors. Such as: German shepherds, Golden retrievers, Dobermans, shiba inu, etc..

    I agree! Maybe there could also be a secret dog fur, kinda like the black-furred cat that can only be found by a witch hut.

    This would also mean different wolves though. Wouldn't make sense if it just changed color,which is why cats were seperated fro-

     

    OH. I see what you're trying to do. Clever. Very Clever.

    I have had an idea about a craft-able item called "dog titles" that assigns a dog a job of your choosing, which changes their size and shape. Each job gives the dog a specific ability based on it's job: Guarding, herding, hunting/tracking, or service. Coat colors can be shared across all job assigned dogs, unless they don't have dog title then they just keep their default skin. I actually made a post about it too.

    Even if it's a short idea, it's a good one. Take cats for example, they have all these cool skins and wolves only have one.

    Dogs aren't cats, and ocelots don't change into cats since 1.14 came out. Dogs have always been bred for certain jobs, first as hunting and transportation and then as guardians of our livestock and home, and now they help us with our emotional needs as well. That's why I suggested "dog titles", which gives a dog a job depending on which "dog title" you crafted. Each variation would share the coat colors, so if you want a small service dog with spots you got them, and if you wanted a big dog with spots you got that too. Plus we would be getting four different sizes for dogs!

    Absolutely yes! Wolves, cows, pigs and chickens need to be revamped before new mobs are added. None of them have gotten a facelift :(
