✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community support with 201 endorsements and over 13k downloads
- Adds practical utility by letting dogs carry loot, which is handy for survival playthroughs
- Crafting integration feels natural—use the tanning rack and forge, no console commands needed
⚠️ Cons
- Only works with specific dog races; custom dogs require manual xEdit tweaks
- Equipment visibility is limited to Dogs, Huskies, and Deathhounds—other dog mods may not show items
- Last updated in 2022, so potential compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions or mods
For Skyrim players who want their dog companions to be more than just furry tanks—this lets them haul your loot. Great for survival or weight-management builds. Skip if you don't use dog followers or prefer gameplay over convenience.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Craft the Harness & Satchel first, then talk to your dog to equip it—that unlocks the trade menu.
- If you use a custom dog race, open the mod in xEdit and add your race to the armor addons to make items visible.
- Check that your dog uses one of the compatible voice mods (crDogVoice, crDogHusky, crDogDeathhound) to avoid dialogue issues.
