Emits green/teal dust particles (`0x00FF88`) on patrol. - ✨ **Normal**: The Classic. Balanced stats and standard vanilla-plus behavior. Emits gold/yellow dust particles (`0xFFD700`) on patrol. ### 🛡️ Tamed Wolf Guard Mode <p align="center"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Rifaditya/Vanilla-Outsider-Better-Dogs/26.2-core-alignment/Doc/Media/Gallery/guard_mode_activation.png" alt="Guard Mode Activation" width="48%"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Rifaditya/Vanilla-Outsider-Better-Dogs/26.2-core-alignment/Doc/Media/Gallery/guard_mode_deactivation.png" alt="Guard Mode Deactivation" width="48%"> </p> Right-click a tamed wolf with a bone while sneaking (Shift + Right Click) to toggle **Guard Mode** (consuming exactly 1 bone) and anchor the wolf to its current spot. Guard Mode is locked to the owner. <blockquote><strong>Guard Mode Particles:</strong> To help you easily identify a patrolling or guarding wolf's personality from a distance, they emit tiny, custom-colored dust particles <strong>only while actively in Guard Mode</strong> (no particles are emitted during normal following or sitting):</blockquote> <p align="center"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Rifaditya/Vanilla-Outsider-Better-Dogs/26.2-core-alignment/Doc/Media/Gallery/particle_aggressive.png" alt="Aggressive Guard Particle" width="30%">&nbsp;<img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Rifaditya/Vanilla-Outsider-Better-Dogs/26.2-core-alignment/Doc/Media/Gallery/particle_pacifist.png" alt="Pacifist Guard Particle" width="30%">&nbsp;<img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Rifaditya/Vanilla-Outsider-Better-Dogs/26.2-core-alignment/Doc/Media/Gallery/particle_classic.png" alt="Classic/Normal Guard Particle" width="30%"> </p> - **Patrol Patterns**: - **Aggressive**: Paces in a circular/polygon shape along its outer perimeter sweep (80% range), pausing to scan outward for threats. - **Normal**: Sentry posture at the guard post (range = 0), or radial patrols outward and back (range > 0). - **Pacifist**: Close protective orbital circular pacing around the post. - **Auto-Targeting & Chase Caps**: Normal and Aggressive guards automatically attack hostiles within their range but are capped from chasing targets too far to prevent them from being lured away. - **Watchdog Alarms & Alert Stance**: Pacifist sentinels whine, freeze in a pointing/alert stance facing the direction of detected threats, and emit warning note particles when hostiles approach, applying Regeneration and Resistance to owners/allies if enabled. ### 📄 Wolf Ownership Transfer (Adoption) Easily transfer ownership of your tamed wolves to other players using standard, vanilla-only **Paper**: <p align="center"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Rifaditya/Vanilla-Outsider-Better-Dogs/26.2-core-alignment/Doc/Media/Gallery/wolve_is_ready_for_adoption_image.png" alt="Wolf is Ready for Adoption" width="85%"> <br><br> <img src="https://raw.githubuserco
