Exploring the Island

Each location offers its own visual theme and may contain resources that are useful for later building projects. Discovering all areas gives a fuller picture of the island’s layout and the variety of items that can be collected.

- Take note of which locations introduce new puppy breeds for future walks.

Puppy Breeds and Variations
Players can befriend nine unique puppy breeds, such as Shibas, Labradors, Corgis, Huskies, and Pugs. Across these breeds there are more than 140 visual variations that can be collected as the player meets new puppies.
