Hey guys, I know this mod is early days but just a few things...
What AI are the dogs using? Vanilla wolf or tweaked? I assume that will be built on in the future of course, it took Doggy Talents a bit.
To be honest I would love to replace doggy talents (currently I run both your mod and doggy talents) with this if it goes in a functional direction as such... of course the dogs are a little too static (besides walking) it would be good to give them a bit more life with movement... head turning, tail wagging etc. I just love the models though! Compared to other mods like this, this one has the best appeal.
Will dog houses read current textures rather than have its own in the future? Will dog bowls and food/eating be a thing?
I mainly am just trying to glean the future ideas of this mod rather than just breeds which seems to have been most of the discussion of late. What is the running plan?
There is one problem to report though, and that is small dog mortality rate. They drown, a lot. Even some larger dogs will sink like stones in particular water scenarios.
Another line to this jagged post is I am happy to report this mod works well with both CMS and BoP (requires some CMS tweaking to reduce and balance as well as other config changes but works!).
This looks like a great mod, especially for a dog lover like me! Can you include poodles and cavalier spaniels, as well as cross-breeding (poodle plus cavalier spaniel=cavapoo)?
Is there a mod suggestion page where you can suggest dog breeds, features etc?
If not I would highly recommend one. It makes planning for future updates more organized.
Yeah! A mod suggestion page of this would be great and highly recommended.

If I helped you in any way or agree in my ideas or posts, make sure you click that green arrow pointing up below my post or simply huggle me! I use 1.7.10 (Modded), so when I comment that I like a 1.8 mod, I will comment to downgrade to 1.7.10. I support no pics, no clicks. Suggestions that I think that are the best deserves a banner!
It is almost time to say goodbye to 1.7.10 because of the recent surge of big 1.9 mods.
Why MCreator sucks: jcm2606's file (doesn't open a new tab) He allows/welcomes anyone to link the file, so I put it here in my signature for people to know how MCreator functions. I thank jcm2606 (he's awesome) for creating the document/file and I'm just here to spread the word.
I found a bug; When getting into the dog's GUI, (on an offline server) it won't show up with the options to change the dog's mode...
That's probably due to the way the server gets the unique identifiers for the players. I think it uses the Mojang servers, which of course won't work offline. I'll need to look into a workaround for that scenario. I think it's the same as vanilla wolf taming, so I wonder if that works on offline servers.
of course the dogs are a little too static (besides walking) it would be good to give them a bit more life with movement... head turning, tail wagging etc. I just love the models though!
Yes, we are definitely planning on adding tail wagging. I have some of the groundwork for that prepared. I agree head turning would be nice. That one will be a little more tricky thanks to the way the heads sit on the necks. If you'll notice, vanilla animals don't have necks. And thanks, Mellon does a good job.
Will dog houses read current textures rather than have its own in the future?
You mean so custom texture packs work, things like that? I would definitely like to get it working that way in the near future. The other benefit there is it would be possible to create houses using woods from other mods and have them look like those woods. Silverwood doghouse anyone?
Yes. The next release is going to be mostly bug fixes and cosmetic updates, and then I expect the one after that will have dog bowls, among other things. So hopefully that will be available in the next couple weeks.

Well your questions have covered several things we have planned. In addition to more breeds and coats and miscellaneous enhancements, we are planning on adding dog bowls and other items, a more advanced skill system (with more and interactive skills,) more ways to interact with your dogs, more things for them to do, actual reasons for breeding, more customization options, and a lot more. Some of it we'll flesh out as we go, and some will be a surprise!

This is a terrific mod! I love the fact that it is very simple and yet so awesome!
I am a dog owner myself (real life and minecraft) Angel and I would love to see my dog in here.
My dog is a Coton de Tulear (pronounced Cotton Day Tuleair). Which is French for Ball of Cotton. Coton de Tulears are hypoallergenic (which means they don't shed) and are considered
royalty in many countries. Cotons are very smart and sweat dogs, with the iconic look of jet black eyes and nose with champain ears.
They are smaller and are often mistaken for Malteses, which is a dog that looks similar but is very different.
Other dogs that would be great would be Sheepdogs, and Blood hounds.
Anyway, Great mod man, cant wait to see what you add.

Amazing mod! I love the models and how they can both sit down and lie down.
I have these 4 wolves that I've tried to get on every server (as a tribute to the ones I had on the first server I ever played) named Syrup, Pancakes, Waffles and Sunny-side. (Yes... I know.) With this mod, I can make them different breeds!

Keep up the fantastic work!
Awesome mod bro! You should be able to put a barrel on Saint Bernards though. This is so fun!
This looks like a great mod, especially for a dog lover like me! Can you include poodles and cavalier spaniels, as well as cross-breeding (poodle plus cavalier spaniel=cavapoo)?
I have a dog who looks like that one, but has browner spots. Right down to the ears and droopy eyes!
I have a dog like yours except with browner spots. He's a cocker spaniel, and his name is Cooper.
Is there a mod suggestion page where you can suggest dog breeds, features etc?
If not I would highly recommend one. It makes planning for future updates more organized.

500+ huggles? U wot, m8?
Ahem, SHIBA INU SHIBA INU SHIBA INU thank you for your time.
Just uploaded a review of this amazingly cute mod.You can find the review down below. It was fun making the video and I enjoyed the mod overall.
TheGoldVane, you might want to add Border Collies to your mod along with different sizes of dog houses to be an excellent idea for this mod.

A combination. AI in Minecraft is modular; some of the modules are vanilla, some are custom, and some are slightly tweaked vanilla versions.
Definitely. We have a lot of updates planned around AI and skills and... lots of stuff.

That's good to hear! And thanks!
Popularmmos did a video on this also
I am suggesting Easter Eggs like
Naming a Great Dane,Scooby Doo, will turn him into a scooby doo texture
And a suggested name for a St. Bernard is Beethoven
Yo!
