Exciting news for all companions and pet lovers in the realm of Azeroth! In today's blog, we explore the delightful journey of obtaining a very special Companion Pet in the World of Warcraft— a pet that has been by our sides since the Mists of Pandaria expansion. Known affectionally as 'Dog', this faithful companion has stolen the hearts of many and is now accessible to accompany you wherever your adventures may lead. Join us as we navigate through the steps required to make this possible, all the while unveiling the secrets of integrating Dog into your World of Warcraft lineup.
Securing Dog as a Companion Pet begins with a multi-expansion quest that highlights your dedication and love for your furry friend.
Your adventure to obtain Dog starts in the serene lands of the Valley of the Four Winds. Here, your goal is to achieve a revered reputation level of 12600/21000 with The Tillers. Once this feat is accomplished, your next step is to locate and complete the quest 'Lost and Lonely'. This leads to a heartwarming reunion, enabling Dog to settle down at your farm in Halfhill.
Having made a comfy space for Dog in Halfhill, the journey continues as you step into the timeline of Warlords of Draenor. Here, Dog’s presence at your Garrison is predicated on your construction of a Herb Garden. Even a Rank 1 Herb Garden suffices to invite Dog over.
The last leg of this journey takes place in the magical city of Dalaran situated in the Broken Isles. Your task in this bustling city is to hunt for a Loose Pebble—a small yet significant item scattered across the city streets. After retrieving the Pebble, head back to your Garrison to present it to Dog, compelling him to move once again, this time to Dalaran, where he remains under the watchful care of Breanni at the Pet Menagerie.
With Dog now comfortably located in Dalaran, obtaining him as a Companion Pet is quite straightforward in The War Within expansion.
Embark on a simple expedition to the Tranquil Strand in the Isle of Dorn. Amid the aftermath where Dalaran once stood, keep an eye out for broken pet cages and scattered plushies. Here, a seemingly ordinary dog bowl plays a crucial role. Interact with this bowl and witness as Dog enthusiastically rushes towards you, acknowledging his owner after all these years.
Engage in a moment of affection with Dog by using emotes like /bark, /pet, and /love. This interaction will enable you to add Dog to your collection as 'Faithful Dog'. Though he cannot engage in pet battles, his barks and howls when interacted with add an endearing touch to his companionship. Not to mention, you now have the option to give Dog a name of your choice if you wish!
Dog's journey from being just another NPC to a cherished Companion Pet underscores the deep, evolving relationships players can forge in World of Warcraft. Whether it’s his presence in your Garrison garden or his joyful welcome in the ruins of Dalaran, Dog symbolizes the enduring bonds of friendship within the game. As we wrap up this guide, remember that the steps to bring Dog into your fold are simple yet rich in adventure and companionship. Embrace this quest and let the faithful barks of Dog enrich your World of Warcraft experience.
