In promos and key art, Dogmeat looks like a loyal hound, but what they don’t show you is that most of the time he’s just kind of a weirdo. Here are ten instances where Dogmeat made us put down our controllers and say “seriously?”
That time he threw a mole rat hundreds of feet into the air and killed it.
That time he murdered another dog and posed next to its decapitated head.
That time he picked up a Fat Man Mini-Nuke Launcher like it was a dog toy.
That time he had too much faith in you.
That time he thought he could swim in mid-air.
And if you think this is unique to Fallout 4, remember that time 20 minutes into post-apocalyptic swimming and chill when Dogmeat gave you this look?
That time Dogmeat totally had those barrels covered?
That time you didn’t feed him?
That time he found something: a way to overcome the laws of gravity?
That time he tried to assassinate you?
But we’re willing to look past all of that because of that time he was a smooth operator.
