| − | + | Training of war/hunting animals (currently only dogs) is done as task in a [[kennel]]. You need a dwarf with [[animal training]] enabled. Of course you also need dogs. Training will increase the dogs fighting abilities; think of them as "veteran" dogs. | |
| − | + | ||
| − | + | Getting your dogs to the place you want them after training is a bit more tricky - you can assign them to a dwarf/soldier so they will follow him/her (this is done from the {{k|v}}-{{k|p}} menu of the dwarf) and station the soldier where you want the dogs, or you can build a cage, cage the dogs and link the cage to a lever, so they can be released from a distance in case of ambush, siege or whatever. | |

| − | + | Animals can also be chained to [[rope]]s and [[chain]]s. | |
| − | + | ||
| − | + | There are reports of other, tamed, animals like leopards and tigers acting as defenders too; they can however not be trained. | |
| + | |||
| + | Any animal acts as guard in that they can detect ambushing creatures and thieves. | ||
