Wolves, sometimes also called dogs, are an interesting pet that can be tamed in Minecraft. There are many advantages to taming wolves over other animals (looking at you parrots). I will go into these advantages after explaining how to tame the animal.
Wolves can be tamed by feeding them bones (which drop skeletons when you kill them). You should only need a single bone, but stock up on them anyway as bones have several benefits to them.

Pet dog in Minecraft
Dogs can be tamed in Minecraft using the help of a bone. Bones can be found by killing skeletons and in chests. Once tamed, a collar will appear on its neck indicating its tamed status. Dogs are useful in more ways than one instead of just being a cute pet for the player to keep!
Uses of a tamed wolf in Minecraft
- A normal wolf has 8 health while the tamed ones have 20 health, so this gives a huge advantage if you tame them.
- Wolves become deadly once tamed and can help you fight mobs like skeletons that try to kill you. They can also attack hostile mobs like sheep or turtles.
The Minecraft game has a variety of different mobs that you can breed, which gives you a unique advantage that you won’t be able to get from other mobs. One of these mobs is a wolf, and taming them will help you fight other mobs in a difficult situation.
Where do you find a wolf in Minecraft?
Wolves spawn in small packs in some biomes in the game. You’ll find them in forests, taigas, giant tree taigas, and snowy biomes, as well as all variations of these areas. They are neutral mobs which means they will basically ignore you unless you attack them first. Wolves will attack sheep that wander in their path, so be careful!
- Taming a wolf is very simple. All you have to do is give a bone (those that fall from skeletons) to a wild wolf. Each bone you give has a 33% chance to tame the wolf, making it your best friend and instant loyal companion.
- If the first attempt fails, keep trying. It shouldn’t take more than a few tries.
- When your attempt to tame the wolf with a bone is successful, you will see hearts appear around the wolf and he will wear a red collar.
- Your wolf will now follow you wherever you go. If you get too far from your wolf, he may temporarily disappear, but will reappear next to you in moments.
Have some wolves:
The best thing a wolf can have are friends who can actually play and communicate with them. Also you can raise dogs with raw meat, it’s so cute to have a small child in the house, as well as watching him grow up.
