I think three or four times a day is good enough

Never. Command him to stay and leave him.
Mutt is one of the most annoying things in the game. When you're picking flowers in the middle of a field he always runs around your legs and blocks you. He also always blocks doorways, howls the whole night when you're sitting in bed or grinding on alchemy skills over the night, fetches already looted rabbit carcasses, ruins stealthy gameplay, etc. etc.
Oh and boinking his head with a mace by mistake when fighting is also annoying and most likely lowers the obedience, so I wouldn't put much work in maxing it out. Just pick up the obedience perks that make him return faster or give additional obedience after returning and you'll be fine. He'll run away after every camp raid or "men at arms" highway patrol encounter because of 1v1'ing someone while you're fighting others anyways. In the end, there's really no need to give him much attention apart from RP.

I didn't feed my dog for days then it ran away. It's also tied to its health, so feed it after each fight.

I feed morning and night. I read somewhere that praise and food (to reinforce the praise) increases obedience... and, of course, Mutt's stats.

Feed him periodically to keep up his obedience, probably 2-3 times in a game day will suffice. Praise and food do indeed increase obedience.

Doesn't matter what kind of meat, he'll eat almost anything like most dogs will.

I feed him when I remember or while hunting I will drop a some for him. It's not really necessary to feed him, I would say it is more of a role play thing.

Just be aware that feeding him stuff under 50% condition (rotten) will lower obedience.

And Olwart, you're right that he can be a pain but his usefulness outweighs even those large annoyances otherwise I'd just leave him at the mill.

There is a book you can buy from the hunter in Rattay that will add obedience to Mutt. He's funny dog and can be such friend and also a pain lol. I fedhim whenever he needed it as he hunted the animals for me but the pat and good dog is priceless. You must move him away from some quests and stay. if you leave him too long he will eturn to Theresa and if you want him back face Theresa and xplain why :D

How wrong can 1 post be?
Mutt is essential and I weep for your cold, cold heart. He's loving and helpful and basically makes hunting a cash cow and levels out uneven fights like no one else. And yeah dude, bringing your pet dog on a stealth mission is on you, not Mutt.

To answer you question, I feed him every day and assume he feeds himself if I'm busy. I always feed him before and after fights, usually with meat the fallen carried. I bring dried meat everywhere so I can always bolster him before we get stuck in. Don't forget to have him on free or aggressive if you expect him to help you.

You only need to feed him to get obedience back up. Time is not relevant to anything related to Mutt. Neither is the type of food. I didn't test cooked vs raw, though. I tended to cook everything because of the perk that keeps it fresh.

You can literally spam feed him anything above 50% condition OR spam praise him until Level 20 skill. Just sit there and pet him for an hour and enjoy your rockin' strong companion. Feeding gives more XP than praise, but requires food. After a hunt, you can just sit there feeding him all 200 pieces of meat you got.

the only reason you should feed him is if there's a mod that disables your collision with him (hitting him and bumping into him)

It's been over 18 months since this thread was last active........ I think the doggo might have carked it.
