Mongrel are canine-like animals that can be found in the Commonwealth in 2287 .
Background Dogs come in many shapes and sizes across the Commonwealth. Mongrels are encountered the most often and are found everywhere. They are usually quite aggressive and will hunt anything. However, some have been domesticated once again by raiders and some friendly settlers for use as attack dogs.
Characteristics Biology The appearance of mongrels is drastically different from that of other Commonwealth dogs and FEV-exposed hounds . The adverse effects of radiation has given mongrels a withered skeletal appearance, no common dog nose, and almost total hair loss.
Gameplay attributes Mongrels will chase the player character and circle around them as they attack. They can be tamed with the Animal Friend perk.
