Job: It barks in the direction of an incoming greed wave.
Unlocked at: 2nd Island
Total Cost: 1 Icon Coin (which is retrieved back)
The dog is a small companion that helps the monarch to foresee where the greed are coming from by barking in that direction. This is especially useful just before a blood moon night attack, when only one wave will strike the Kingdom.
The dog can be unlocked on the second island. Thereafter, it may spawn anywhere within a forest biome under a fallen tree. Dropping a coin on the tree frees the dog and it will follow the Monarch from that point on, even between lands by boarding the boat as it sets sail. It is also possible to find a new dog in the next land, but freeing the newer animal will result in the old dog running away, de-spawning from the game.
The dog does not engage in any form of combat, much like vagrants, villagers and farmers.
The dog can be kidnapped by the greed, just as the Hermit can. It is possible to save the dog if military units can kill the greed carrying the dog. If not, the dog will be taken through the portal and does not respawn on that land. The bear mount can kill the greed carrying the dog.
In Kingdom: Two Crowns campaign, except by killing the greed that stole your dog, there are only two way to get your dog back. The first one is to lose your crown (or crowns if playing in coop) and then to go back on the 2nd island to free a new dog stuck under a trunk. The second one is to destroy the cliff portal with a bomb, on the island your dog have been kidnapped. If you survive the explosion you will find your stolen dog in front of it (this also works for the hermits and maybe for gems).
Trivia
1- There is a humorous visual glitch, where the dog normally jumps on to the boat last second, when departing. However, if the Monarch can get a large distance from the dog, (via rebuilt portals or very quick mounts) The dog will leap an enormous amount and seemingly in a flash it is on the boat.
2- If the Greed is attacking from both sides of the map, the dog will bark in one direction first, proceeding to turn and bark in the other afterwards.
