This experiment shows that making dogs through taming fox is not impossible.
So why not in hafen?
It would be cool if there's a dog as a livestock which can help hearthlings fighting with animals(giving them small damages) and chasing them when they run away.
And wouldn't it be lovely if unleashed dogs just follow hearthlings with no reason-just like dogs in real life?
please make fox tamable.

Nope ... just because some of those foxes behave like cute pet puppies doesn't mean they are dogs ... besides breeding a dog for hunting over centuries they also need training and that's not working with those foxes

And all foxes that where sold from there got sterilized so no breeding anyways ... and sadly had a very short life

How about making wolves ingame, make them tameable, but less stronger than a wolf?

Meh, skeptical. Would rather work on dogs.
