Probably not a bug, but so annoying it might as well be. I had to put my dog away, which is sad because I spent real money on those dogs, and now they are too annoying to have out. Please turn the barking reel off!
Oh man, I just noticed this tonight and it's driving me INSANE. I've had to put the wolf pup away because he won't shut up and he's literally my favorite pet. Not happy about this one.
We should have the option to turn off pet sounds. If you buy a pet in the crown store they should not change the way it interacts in the world or give us a refund....can't use the golden retriever any more.
I love my dogs, but I had to remove them from all my characters. This really sucks for players who spent Crowns to get them because now they're unusable. I don't want the pet noises turned off either, I like how it was before. An occasional "boof" from your best friend is a great reminder that they're there - but the constant barking is distracting when you're trying to concentrate.
Edited to add which dogs of mine are affected: Shornhelm Shepherd, Bravil Retriever, Markarth Bear Dog
I did notice that my Alik'r Dune Hound was not barking like the others. Let me know if there are any dogs that are not constantly barking, because I'll just use them for now.
Oh yes Please fix this! The dogs are my favorite pets, but I can't stand to have them out longer than a few minutes before the barking starts driving me mad
This issue has been fixed on our internal servers and should make it to the live servers in a patch soon.
Sorry for the inconvenience. Thanks for the reports!
@Jekerl is there any chance you could look into why some pets run on the spot constantly and make their movement sounds a lot. This can be seen a lot with the Crony Scrib which makes a horrible shuffling sound.
