About the Dog

The Dog is one of the most common pets in Grow a Garden, making it an ideal first companion. Its ability to dig up random seeds periodically makes it genuinely useful for early-game farming. While its trade value is low, a Dog with a Golden or Shocked mutation is worth significantly more. Most experienced traders keep a few Dogs around for bulk trade padding.
