How to Tame Léo

How to tame the dog added in the v0.323 update.

Things to do First

You'll first hear about Léo from Melanie, at the decorations store. Returning players will notice a new pet section located near her register, and speaking to her will give the player new lines of dialogue, ranging from what his favorite treats are, to where the player can start looking for him.


You'll want to grab a few bags of treats from the display, the flavor doesn't matter, and load them up into your vehicle. Next, pull up your map, and locate the circle marked, "Léo" near the bottom left side: This is where you'll be travelling to, next.

Where to Find Léo, and How to Befriend Him

When you've reached the marked location, you'll be greeted with several discarded packages of dog treats, and a BEWARE OF DOG sign tacked to a tree.

With a bag of treats in your hand, start following the bags of treats right up to the tree line. Léo likes to hide among the trees, and he'll slowly make his way towards you. Stop moving, and he'll slowly creep up to you, and take the treat bag from your hand, and run back into the forest.



You'll have gained a single point of trust from him, viewable in the Friendship tab in the pause menu. You can only gain a single point per day right now, so you'll wanna come back tomorrow and repeat this process.

Taking Léo Home

Continue giving him treats for an additional seven days, until you're at Friendship level eight. At level eight, Léo will bring you his dog bed, and you'll have his full trust! Place the bed in the passenger seat of your vehicle, and interact with it to have Léo sit in it.


You're now free to take him back to your home, buy additional pet supplies from Melanie, and begin taking care of your new furry friend!

@ChimpRage

There exists a bug in the current build of the game that prevents Léo from eating/drinking if he is set to Stay at Home. Set him to follow the player, and he'll be able to take from his food bowls, again.

This is looking to be addressed in the coming update.

nice but we really need a "how to shut Léo up" guide , I love leo but if he dosent want to eat or drink from 1 of the 20 bowls near him thats not my problem, sick of listening to him.
