With 200 base Stamina, the Bulbdog has average stamina. Dealing 100% base Melee Damage, the Bulbdog brings decent hitting power to the table. Starting at 145 Health, it's extremely fragile. Weight capacity starts at 120, giving it a reasonable inventory size.

Taming the Bulbdog doesn't require unconsciousness. Instead, sneak up to it and hand-feed its preferred food. Its preferred food is Plant Species Z Seed.

After taming, the Bulbdog is valued for its harvesting efficiency, collecting key resources faster than most tools. Breeding is via live birth rather than eggs, simplifying the process. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.05 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
