DayZ-Dog
A loyal companion system: tame a dog, keep it alive, and use it as an extra set of eyes (and teeth) in a harsh world.
Treat it like a teammate — not loot.

Example Scenes
Dogs can travel with you, hang around your shelter, and turn quiet moments into “why is it barking?” moments.
How It Works
Taming
Tame wild dogs using bones or meat.
One Dog Per Player
Each survivor can only keep one dog at a time.
Persistent Companion
Your dog logs out/in with you and stays at the last known location.
Whistle Recall
Use the whistle keybind to call your dog to you (teleport). Check: Options → Keybinds.
3 Behavior Modes
Follow (can auto-switch when infected target you), Patrol (can attack nearby infected), and Stay Here.
Vehicles
In Follow mode, your dog can enter a vehicle with you.
Emote Control
You can also control the dog using emotes.
Permanent Loss
If your dog takes too much damage, it can die. If you die, you lose your dog.

Important Notes
• If you can’t interact with a dog house, the mod author recommends resetting dog status by respawning.
• Keep your companion alive — dogs are useful, but they also attract attention and get hurt like anything else.
