- Farming: Dogs with any Hoe in their toolbar will help you harvest and plant crops. They now support any farmable crop, including modded ones.
- Bridging: Max-level (Level 5) Dogs can assist with bridging if they have building blocks in their toolbar. Use the Dog Bridging Whistle to command them.
When farming
Make sure you:
- Set your dog's mode to Docile. (Wandering Dogs can also farm if configured).
- Put the desired Hoe in the Doggy Tools Toolbar. Any Hoe works, and dogs will consume less durability than usual.
- Place the seed of the crop you want to harvest/plant in the toolbar.
- Pro Tip: You can optionally tell the Dog to plant a different seed from the one it is harvesting by placing that seed directly to the right of the harvesting one in its toolbar.
- Always Pick First Slot set to False.
