D&D Dogs is now OPEN!

Come one! Come all! D&D Dogs, Inc. is now open for business! Get your very own dog who follows you around and can even be taught tricks!!! It's a must see! Come on over! Perry 240, 137

We currently have a mutt named Darwood, a poodle, and a dalmatian...more models to come!

I've been so excited about getting my dalmation, and now I've got him, he's absolutely adorable! Well done guys, you've done a great job and considering all the work, and how cute they are, they're very reasonably priced.

The only thing is, he doesn't fly very well, so put him in your backpack before flying off. My dalmation doesn't seem to mind that.

Sebastian, heel.

wow - i just bought my first dog. very cool - i need to bring him back to get trained!

Glad you like our dogs! They are currently version 1.0 and we've been working on an update, version 1.1. The upate is merely a couple bug fixes and code optimization.

Anyone wanting to update their dog please IM me or Darrly Chang when we are on and we can swap them out for you. The update is almost ready, just ask us about it.

A couple of helpful hints for current dog owners:

1. He can get stuck under objects or behind walls, etc. When this happens, simply say 'reset' and he will reposition himself near you.

2. Careful when flying, crossing sim lines, or teleporting. If you get too far from your dog he gets lost, and it seems that the sensor code tends to pause at sim lines. There is a built-in safeguard for this situation...when the dog doesn't sense his owner for a little while, he will automatically shoot off-world and end up in your Lost & Found folder. A relogin may be required to see him in your lost & found. There has been a report of one dog just suddenly disappearing as if he were deleted. Always try saying 'reset' near where you last saw the dog since he may have gotten caught under something. If he is truly lost, let us know and we will help. Our suggestion is to take him in your inventory when traveling across sims, teleporting, or using a vehicle or jetpack.

3. There is a known bug that if you tell your dog to sit on land (not on an object) he will sit, but get stuck and not be able to follow you. Again, a simple 'reset' will fix this. This is caused by the fact that the dog briefly goes phantom and embeds himself in the land and gets stuck. A fix for this has already been implemented in the v1.1 code branch to be released soon.

4. Training - Before you train your dog, say 'commands' to see what tricks he already knows. If you buy a trick that he already learned, your money is not reimbursed automatically and an error message appears. We are working on a fix for this as well. Let me know if you accidentally train him twice in the same trick and I will reimburse the trick fee.

5. Do not attach the dog to your avatar! This causes strange things to happen, which could ultimately lead to losing your dog.

More dog breeds are coming. We already have requests for dobermans, bulldogs, boxers, hound dogs, chihuahuas, and others. Give us some time to build these as we are limited to using 31 prims since the object is physical, which means we have to use each prim intelligently and still make him look good.

Please pick up an owner's manual when you buy a dog. They are located right next to each dog. Cliicking the book will give you a notecard with deatailed instructions.

Enjoy!
