Different Dog Species Relative to Biomes

under review

Minecraft should have different types of dogs, and depending on that dog type, it would spawn in a certain biome.

Example:

Wolf = snowy biomes

Coyote (Prarie Wolf) = Plains biome or grassy biome

Dingo = Sandy biomes

 

And in villages, or even surrounding them, would be more house-pet dogs, like beagles, or poodles or something. :P

Its just a thought though :)

    I think it’d be cool if there was also a stronger wolf variant for Mountain biomes, in order to help give the biome more of an identity. These Mountain Wolves would be larger in size, have a mixed fur color (I.e. the iconic black, grey, & brown wolf fur), have more health, move quicker, and would become hostile at night. Taming a Mountian Wolf would also require a lot more time and patience, but would act as an excellent guard dog for a player’s base.

    I agree

    I also think that there should be African Wild Dogs for the savanna

    They should have a small, fluffy, white dog for the snow biomes! That would be adorable and would make sense since it needs to be warm in the snow and could hide in the snow to protect itself from predators.

    I like that idea! I like the idea of the dog matching the biome. And dogs being apart of the village when the village spawns.

    Don't you mean wolves? It is stated in (Updated) About the Mobs, Animals, and non-Huminoids Area they ask that you [and I quote], "Please avoid suggestions that are too similar to existing mobs or just variations on a theme! You know you're veering too far into this when you're like "it's a X, but (feature) instead".

    When talking about a certain animal like the wolf, don't go off into it's variants because that is now off topic. This was added after this though, so I'm just saying for next time!

     

    With that said, I love this idea! A different wolf for each biome!

    Please make this happen, i also think it would be a good idea if each of them had different abilities and different height.

    Perhaps in the Savanah, should Hyenas be added, that can be the dog breed there. Or even manned wolves https://feedback.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/community/posts/360053331891-Hyena
