Animal Whisperer - Where can we find the Pets?

[Krelian]

Ok, so first of all;
-I know that there is Aberforth in Ranger Citadel, can be ''recruited'' immediately after starting the game if you have animal whisperer-1 skill (or if you dig-up/buy the trinket).

-Than, I've read that there are chickens that we can tame in Highpool IF we go there to save Highpool FIRST (instead of AG Center), right?

-And than, there ought to be dogs, cows, pigs and rats to be employed! (Yeah, at most 3 pets can follow a single character)..

**Does anybody know where to find the pets mentioned above, how early in game they are accessible and what lv of ''Animal Whisperer Skill'' they require?

PS! This is the stuff I learned by googling the subject, but I just couldn't find a list of where to find the aforementioned pets in Wasteland 2 and what lv whisperer skill they require.

Dogs: Citadel after clearing AG/Highpool
Goats: Prison
Cows: AG center east field
Rat: Statue in the middle of RNC

Too bad everything except the Rat and Aberforth make such godawful noises I couldn't stomach keeping them around.

Cows in the Ag centre and one of the related farms.
Rat in or by the statue in Rail Nomad.
Goats at the prison. (Warning: will drive you nuts with their screaming)
In an old game I found and whispered a dog outside the citadel, near where Aberforth is, though I haven't seen it in other playthroughs.

Dogs and rats will fight enemies and usually die quickly.

Total awesomeness! Thank you both! :)
Just one more thing, does any one of you know the maximum level of ''animal whisperer skill'' NEEDED to tame those PETS (NOT regular mobs&beasties, BUT ONLY pets such as you mentioned above) ?

Dogs only appear at Ranger Citadel if you convinced the raider group at the radar tower to join the Desert Rangers. I did my first run through with animal whisper. T.b.h. it is very hard at later levels to keep the animals alive. Because they get targetted by enemies a lot. Though the power ups are nice there are better pets in the wasteland you can recruit.

Fun fact Aberforth is immortal; he will always reappear in the ranger citadel after he gets greased. That is as long as you dont take his shiny shiny tin can

Quoted a bug relative to this, if you tame animals before LA when you leave for LA you loose the pets but keep the bonus, and you'll keep them until you tame again an animal with the same bonus because the pet can't die as it isn't with the character.

EDIT: Made me wonder if you couldn't tame an animal and have it trapped in a room by closing a door, and achieve a similar result, lol.

In fact some animals seem regenerated, but not all, only few.
