WOOF WOOF! Kowloon_4gfirst made an appearance 7 years ago with their More Swords Mod that adds over 20 new swords to the game! He's back with a slightly different mod called More Dogs! This mod currently adds 5 different dog breeds including Golden Retriever, Pug, German Shepard, Chihuahua, and Husky !The dogs behave similar to Wolves and different breeds can be found in different biomes. They're tamed and health maintained by feeding them raw meat. Their health can be monitored by looking at their tail, if their tail is lower than usual it means they are low on health. Have a favorite breed you'd like to see added? Let him know in the comments of the mod submission!
