Named mongrels[]

  • Alissa - A mongrel found at the Neponset Park overpass with the corpse of its owner, Evan O'Dood.
  • Ruby - A hostile mongrel southwest of Hester's Consumer Robotics. Along with Shug and Dando, Ruby will attack the Sole Survivor. Unlike her friend, she is level-independent and will always spawn as a non-glowing mongrel.
  • Shug - A leveled mongrel accompanying Ruby. Higher levelled characters will see him spawn as a glowing variant.
  • Wounded dog (aka Mutt, Sparky or Buttface) - A passive female mongrel with wounded legs. The Sole Survivor can heal and name the mongrel.

Notes[]

  • Once successfully pacified with the Animal Friend perk, the Sole Survivor can initiate a trade and equip items on the animal, just like Dogmeat.
  • Mongrels have many of the same animations as Dogmeat, and when idle they can be seen playing with a teddy bear or rolling on their backs.
  • The mongrels reuse the sound files for the wolves in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

Appearances[]

Mongrels appear in Fallout 4 and in Fallout: Wasteland Warfare.
