Adds a wide variety of dog breeds as followers to Skyrim, including Beagle, Bernese Mountain Dog, Bulldog, Chihuahua, Corgi, Great Dane, Husky, Jack Russell Terrier, Retriever, two Shepherd types, and a Pug. A popular cosmetic follower mod with 428 endorsements, last updated in June 2021.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 428 endorsements and nearly 10k downloads.
- Huge variety of breeds—12 different dogs to pick from, so you can find your real-life pup in-game.
- ESL-flagged, so it's light on your load order and won't eat up plugin slots.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2021, so it might not be compatible with the latest Skyrim updates or other mods.
- No mention of custom AI or unique behaviors—these are likely just reskinned vanilla dogs, so don't expect fancy combat tricks.
- Potential conflicts with mods that alter vanilla dog skeletons or follower frameworks.
For Skyrim players who want a loyal canine companion and love having options—whether you're a dog person with a favorite breed or just want a change from the vanilla husky. Skip if you're looking for gameplay overhauls or complex follower systems; this is purely about adding furry friends.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's ESL-flagged, you can install it with any mod manager and it won't count against your 255 plugin limit.
- If you're using other dog mods, load this one after them to ensure the new breeds appear correctly.
- Check in-game at a stable or follower location to see all the dogs—they might be placed in specific spots, so explore a bit.
