    In Minecraft, there are a few pets you can have, but none of them beat having a Dog by your side. It makes for a great companion that will also protect you in combat.

    Dogs are, to all intents and purposes, tamed Wolves which can be found in the wild and tamed with a couple of bones, if you’re lucky enough.

    Once tamed, you can also make them follow you around wherever you go or you can leave them protecting your base by getting them to sit.

    They even teleport to you when you move away so you can always keep them by your side. In this guide, we’ll show you how to tame a dog in Minecraft.

    What You Need to Tame a Dog in Minecraft

    • 10x Bones – Each bone has a 1/3 chance to tame the wolf, so bring plenty.
