Any Way for Existing Customers to get the Whiterun Wolfhound?

I noticed on Steam that, for a limited time, purchasing the Imperial Edition gets you the Whiterun Wolfhound pet. Will there be a way for existing customers to get this?

✭I'd very much like to know as well. Hopefully without paying extra, since many of us even pre-ordered the Imp Edition at full price.
Edit: A picture of the promotion for those who haven't seen it.
Funny I remember Zenimax saying the Imperial edition was running out of copies fast !

I dont see why people that bought the same exact thing i did get the dog and i dont.

liquid_wolf✭✭✭✭They don't get the pets you already got. Pre order pets and so forth.
By getting it on steam, they get a particular pet... by pre-ordering, and getting a physical copy, others got particular pets. -

Agreed, the whole point of the Imp edition was it's supposed exclusive contents (physical & digital)

I would even settle for being able to buy just the dog, which I could see them doing.╔═════════════⌈Alannah Corvaine⌋══════════════╗

I'd take a dog if given the opportunity.

Wicked_Wolf✭✭✭✭Wait what! For pre ordering the expensive edition I get a crab, weird lookin mini dinosaur and an annoying monkey. NOW they offer an actual realistic and awesome looking pet?
I'm with those above, there should seriously be a way for us to get it also. -

✭✭WHAT?!?! Seriously? I beta tested. I bought pre release. And you're saying I can't have a pet dog, which is the only pet I really wanted, because I started playing too early, unless I buy another copy of the game?
If this is true- of all the things- this is the one thing that makes Slurg feel rage.

✭Gotta say, I'm really not a fan of these special pets. I've bought and paid for my Imperial Edition, why can't I get the wolfhound? Those that bought the regular editon can upgrade to the Imperial Edition for $20 and receive the special mudcrab, and those that didn't preorder can buy the Explorer's Pack for about $2 from third party websites. The only really 'exclusive' thing I have is the imgakin, and I'd gladly trade that/make it available to all players for the wolfhound to be made public.
At very least, make these pets tradeable, so I can just give somebody who bought the IE on Steam 30k for the wolfhound and get it over with.ＦＯＲＵＭＰＬＡＲ

Yeah I want the dog.
I don't think we should get Steam keys or any of that nonsense. But I played beta, pre-ordered the Imperial. Supported this game for several months...I want that damn dog. -

✭So far all vanity pets have been tied to specific purchases haven't they? Would be nice if Zos would throw in a few in game ones. I know they are worthless but still a fun option to have around.
It's a real slap in the face to those who have supported the game from the start. Zos has done zero to show any appreciation for current customers and those who helped them make this game.WHAT?!?!

Daemyn✭✭✭This is really frustrating...a new pet, pretty unarguably better than any of the current ones, and people who have supported the game from the beginning have NO WAY to get one? I really hope they give this automatically to people who already own an imperial edition, or at the very least offer a way for us to buy one, even though that is kind of kicking their early supporters in the teeth a bit. The best option might be give everyone that already owns the imperial edition Steam keys, so that we can both add it to our steam list and get the dog (my regular key does not seem to do that already). I'm going to hope Zenimax pulls through for us on this one, they definitely have for stuff in the past. -
They need to fix this for current customers. We adopted the game in it's infancy, and we deserve to play it on Steam if we want to, and to get any benefits the Steam players get for buying the game. This makes no sense.
I don't agree with the Steam key part but yeah, at the very least the dog which I LOVE. -
HippieTheGreat✭✭✭This is a little annoying since I beta tested/preorder the physical imperial edition.
However, didn't they say that vanity pets like dogs and cats were coming soon on the live server for people to get some how? Maybe that will be how we get them, Steam people are just getting them early?Edited by HippieTheGreat on July 17, 2014 6:00PM -

✭I pre-ordered the Imperial Edition, and this makes me angry enough to be done with the whole thing.

Daemyn✭✭✭We should not get the Steam dog just as they should not get what we have. That being said there should be a different breed available to us. Make it a gift to those who have subscribed for 6 months.
Pretty sure other than the explorer's pack pet, there isn't anything we have that they aren't getting. Still comes with the mudcrab, horse, gear, etc. Maybe they aren't getting a second mudcrab...but seriously, who really wanted another one? Also, I'd like steam keys because A. many games that you purchase elsewhere nowadays can be activated on steam, and B. there's trading cards and such for the game. Also having it on steam means future expansions/mounts/pets or whatever they sell will be easier to purchase. As far as I know, there is literally no reason not to offer existing users a Steam key like so many games do now.Edited by Daemyn on July 17, 2014 6:05PM -

✭✭If ZOS is contractually obligated to only give the wolfhound to new steam customers, I propose the following alternative:
Give those of us who have been with you since the beginning the option to get the tan dog as a customer loyalty bonus.Happy All the Holidays To You and Yours!
