Dogs

A puppy and its mother

Dogs are pets that Sims can own in The Sims: Unleashed and The Sims 2: Pets.

The Sims: Unleashed

Dogs were introduced in The Sims: Unleashed. In The Sims, a family can adopt a dog by going to the Pet Center in Old Town, or a Sim can befriend and adopt a stray. However, the Create a Sim section of The Sims does not allow players to create pets.

Skills for dogs are obedience, tricks, and housebreaking. Dogs must be housebroken by praising them when they relieve themselves outside and/or scolding them when they do it inside. A dog may - or may not - try to drive El Bandito the raccoon off a lot, but will ignore the burglar.


The Sims 2

In The Sims 2: Pets, dogs may be created in the Create a Pet section of Create a Sim. Sims can adopt dogs or puppies using the phone or by buying them on community lots that sell pets. Players can also get a pet dog

in Apartment Life by buying the pet cage in the pets section of buy mode, though these dogs are "decorative", and are considered as small pets.

In Pets, dogs come in two sizes, small and large. A dog's size affects how long its adult life stage will last. A small dog will live for 25 days as an adult, while a large dog will be an adult for 22 days.

Unlike their counterparts in Unleashed, puppies in Pets are mobile and largely self-sufficient. They can feed themselves (provided there is food available) and sleep on pet beds without the help of a Sim or their mother. Puppies can also learn Behaviors. However, puppies (as well as kittens) cannot go up or down stairs without the help of a Sim, and they cannot get jobs or learn Commands. Puppies are all the same size, regardless of what size they will be as adults.

Dogs are also able to get jobs such as a police dog.

The Sims 3

Dogs will return in The Sims 3: Pets and appear to be largely similar to those found in The Sims 2. Dogs are able to form relationships with cats and horses. In the trailer, a burglar is seen running from three dogs; this could possibly be a helpful alternative to the burglar alarm. Dogs are also able to get jobs, much as in The Sims 2.

Dogs will also, like Sims, have their own traits such as Adventurous and Loyal.
