Wild wolves spawn naturally in multiple biomes on [[Minecraft:grass block]]s, [[Minecraft:coarse dirt]], [[Minecraft:snow]] ({{in|java}} only on 8 layers of snow), [[Minecraft:snow block]]s or [[Minecraft:podzol]]. They have a 10% chance of spawning naturally as a baby. Their appearance and the amount of wolves that attempt to spawn depend on the biome.

Wolf sound variants are assigned independently of a wolf's spawning biome, with a 14.2% chance of spawning for one of each sound variant.

Wolves cannot teleport across [[Minecraft:dimension]]s. As such, if the player is in another dimension than the wolf, it remains in its current dimension and automatically sits until the player allows it to stand. However, wolves can be transported to another dimension by pushing them into the portal first.

{{Anchor|Health}}
{{MC/Anchor|Health}}
A tamed wolf's tail rises and lowers depending on its [[Minecraft:health]]. The exact health of an individual wolf can be determined by measuring the angle between its hind legs and tail. The angle indicates the percentage of health that the wolf has. Tamed wolves whine when they have low health (below {{hp|20}}{{only|JE|short=1}} / {{hp|10}}{{only|BE|short=1}}). Untamed wolves have a maximum health of {{hp|8}}; the position of an untamed wolf's tail does not depend on its health. Tamed wolves, as well as untamed wolves {{in|Bedrock}}, can be healed by feeding them any of the meat and fish items listed below.

Untamed wolves have a maximum health of {{hp|8}}; the position of an untamed wolf's tail does not depend on its health. Tamed wolves, as well as untamed wolves {{MC/In|Bedrock}}, can be healed by feeding them any of the meat and fish items listed below.

Tamed wolves at full [[Minecraft:health]] can be bred with any type of meat, including rotten flesh and raw chicken without causing the hunger [[Minecraft:status effect]] (see the list above). {{IN|java}}, [[Minecraft:rabbit stew]] and any type of fish can also be used to breed wolves. There is a 5-minute cooldown in ''[[Minecraft:Java Edition]]'' and a 1-minute cooldown in ''[[Minecraft:Bedrock Edition]]'' for breeding, during which the wolf does not accept meat. In order to breed, both wolves must be standing.

Baby wolves have a 50% chance of being the same variant as either of its parents. Similar to a [[Minecraft:sheep]]'s wool color, the color of a baby wolf's collar is a mix of the colors of the parents' collars, if it is possible to mix them; otherwise, one of the parents' collars is randomly chosen.

Similarly, breeding two wolves with different sound variants or a single one will produce a baby with a randomized sound variant. When the baby appears, a soundclip from one random sound variant will play, but the other sounds the baby makes come from a different variant.

Template:Hatnote Template:Redirect Template:Infobox entity A wolf is a neutral mob that can be tamed using Minecraft:bones. Tamed wolves defend their owners against attackers and can assist in combat. They can also be equipped with wolf armor.

Spawning

Wild wolves spawn naturally in multiple biomes on grass blocks, coarse dirt, Minecraft:snow (in Template:Editions only on 8 layers of snow), snow blocks or Minecraft:podzol. They have a 10% chance of spawning naturally as a baby. Their appearance and the amount of wolves that attempt to spawn depend on the biome.

Template:Mob spawn table

Color variants

Template:Hatnote Wolves have 9 color variants, each of which spawns in a different biome. Most variants spawn in packs, with some having larger or smaller packs.

When a wolf pack spawns near a biome border, individual wolves of the pack might take on a different appearance if their spawn location is in a bordering biome.<ref>Template:Bug</ref>

Wolves spawned in jungles or bamboo jungles (using spawn eggs, monster spawners, commands, or due to a wolf pack bordering these biomes) spawn as rusty wolves; wolves in savannas or windswept savannas spawn as spotted wolves; wolves in badlands or eroded badlands spawn as striped wolves. Wolves in all other biomes spawn as the pale variant.

For pictures of individual color variants, see Template:Slink.

Sound variants

Wolves have 7 sound variants: Big, Classic, Cute, Puglin, Angry, Grumpy, and Sad. These variants are meant to reflect a wolf's personality,<ref>Template:Mcnet</ref> but have no effect on the wolf's behavior.

Wolf sound variants are assigned independently of a wolf's spawning biome, with a 14.2% chance of spawning for one of each sound variant. Wolves will make the sounds associated with their variant when they make bark, pant, whine, growl, death, or hurt sounds. Sound variants are unrelated to color variants. Similarly, the angry sound variant is unrelated to the Script error: No such module "SpriteFile". angry wolf state.

For the sounds of each sound variant, see Template:Slink.

Drops

Adult wolves drop

  1. REDIRECT Template:Experience

Template:Redr experience orbs when killed by a player or a tamed wolf. in Template:Editions, a tamed wolf that is killed by its owner does not drop experience.

Wolves wearing wolf armor always drop their wolf armor when they die, regardless of what kills them.

Upon successful breeding,

Template:Redr are dropped.

Like other baby animals, baby wolves will drop no experience when killed.

Behavior

File:Begging Tame Wolf.png

Wolves exhibit three different states depending on how the user interacts with them:

  • Script error: No such module "SpriteFile". Untamed wolves have a drooping tail and their eyes consist of a white pixel and a black pixel for the pupil (on each side). They are neutral toward the player. They are hostile toward sheep, rabbits, foxes, baby Minecraft:turtles, skeletons, wither skeletons, strays, bogged, and parched, taking on their angry appearance while attacking these mobs, and changing back when the targeted mob dies or moves out of range. They are not hostile towards skeleton horses despite their skeletal appearance. They chase bats despite being unable to reach them.<ref>Template:Bug</ref> They avoid or attack llamas (see Template:Slink for details), although wolves will always attack a llama that spits on them. They do not despawn, even if they are in an unloaded chunk, or 32 blocks away from the player. They can be ridden by baby Minecraft:zombie variants.Template:Only
  • Script error: No such module "SpriteFile". Angry wolves are characterized by their constant growling and fearsome appearance. Wild wolves become hostile when they are either attacked by a player or Minecraft:mob, if not killed in one hit<ref>Template:Bug</ref>, or when they see a Minecraft:mob they are hostile against. Their tail is held out straight, their eyes become blood red, their mouth is raised in a slight snarl, and they have angry eyebrows. Angry wolves are hostile only to the players or mobs that attacked them, or to the mobs they are hunting. They can see attackers even if they are under the invisibility effect, but they cannot track the attacker down if they get out of their render distance, or the attacker was able to unload the chunk where the wolves were. Notice that only the damage done to players gets scaled by difficulty, all other mobs will receive Template:Hp damage regardless of difficulty. Angry wolves cannot be leashed, but a wild wolf may become angry while it is still leashed without dropping the lead.Template:OnlyTemplate:Note
  • Script error: No such module "SpriteFile". Tamed wolves have friendlier-looking eyes, and more hp than the untamed wolf. They have a default red collar around their neck, which can be dyed {{#vardefine: control | right click on mouse or left trigger on gamepad }}using one of the sixteen colored Minecraft:dyes on the wolf by the owner of the wolf. Pressing {{#vardefine: control | right click on mouse or left trigger on gamepad }}use on the wolf makes it sit and remain in place, and not follow the player. Tamed wolves that are not sitting attack players or mobs that their owner attacks, or those that injure their owner unless the target has the same owner or is on the same team, dealing them Template:Hp damage regardless of difficulty. They do not attack creepers or ghasts. Standing tamed wolves attack only skeletons and their variants without provocation. Kills by tamed wolves count as player kills: this means mobs killed by a tamed wolf can drop experience, rare drops or equipped items. Tamed wolves are always passive to the player, even if the player hits them or kills a tamed wolf on the same team. Tamed wolves teleport to the owner if they take damage.

A wolf becomes hostile to a player or other mob that attacks it unless the attacker is the wolf's owner, or is otherwise on the same team, or if killed in one hit. It also causes wild wolves and standing tamed wolves in a 33×21×33 cuboid centered on the attacked wolf to become hostile to the attacker, allowing coordination for attacks and team hunts (only in wild wolves).

in Template:Editions, any tamed wolf attacked by a player/mob causes all standing wolves on that team to attack that player/mob who attacked the tamed wolf.

Skeletons and their variants, foxes, baby turtles and passive rabbits actively avoid both tamed and wild wolves.

  1. REDIRECT Template:EntityLinksTemplate:Only attack wolves actively. Sheep ignore wolves, but flee when attacked by one. Sheep ignore tamed wolves but also do not flee from them.

When a player within 8 blocks holds meat or Minecraft:bones near a wolf, the wolf tilts its head as if to 'beg' for the food for 2 to 4 seconds.

The behavior of baby wolves is the same as adult tamed wolves. Baby wolves have large heads, similar to other baby animals.

Wolves are 0.85Template:Only or 0.8Template:Only blocks tall and baby wolves are 0.425Template:Only or 0.4Template:Only blocks tall.

The textures of the wolves are tinted dark gray once submerged in water.

In Peaceful difficulty, attacking a wild wolf aggravates the wolf and its group, but they deal no damage to the player.

Movement

File:Wolf shaking.gif
A tamed pale wolf shaking off water.

Standing tamed wolves wander randomly when near their owner, but follow if more than 10 blocks away and teleport to a nearby free block (if any) if more than 12 blocks away. Besides making travel easier, teleportation can be used to rescue them from Minecraft:lava, Minecraft:water or pits, as they immediately teleport to a safe area.

  • Wolves can be told to "sit" by pressing {{#vardefine: control | right click on mouse or left trigger on gamepad }}use on them and made to stand again with another press of {{#vardefine: control | right click on mouse or left trigger on gamepad }}use.
    • While sitting, they do not follow the player.
    • Wolves stand up and follow the player if the wolf is pushed into water or injured while sitting.
  • Wolves can either attack (within 16 blocks) or flee from (within 24 blocks) llamas. The wolves' speed is increased by 50% when they flee.
  • Wolves find paths to their targets if attacking within 16 blocks, even in difficult terrain. They also navigate along the edges of cliffs and occasionally fall far enough to take damage if they leap.
  • Wolves attack their targets running about at the player's walking speed and by leaping at them in exactly the same manner as spiders, but cause no damage while in midair. Tamed wolves attack any animal the player starts to attack. They also can navigate and turn around in 1×1 horizontal tunnels.
  • After emerging from water, a wolf shakes the water off their fur. This is represented by an animation and water particles.

Teleportation

Tamed wolves teleport to their owner if they are more than 12 blocks away, unless the owner is not directly touching the ground{{

 #vardefine: verifyedition | 

}}<verify for {{#var:verifyedition}}></verify for {{#var:verifyedition}}>{{

 #vardefine: verifyedition | 

}} (e.g. using Minecraft:elytra, swimming, flying, in a Minecraft:boat).

Tamed wolves teleport to a block on the edge of a 5×1×5 region centered on the player. This block must be transparent, with a solid block below and another transparent block above. If no such block can be found, the wolf does not teleport.

It is possible for tamed wolves to teleport to an inaccessible location (e.g. under Minecraft:ice) and be injured or die of suffocation as a result. This happens when the wolf considers transparent blocks, such as Minecraft:glass or Minecraft:slabs, to be open.{{

 #vardefine: verifyedition | 

}}<verify for {{#var:verifyedition}}></verify for {{#var:verifyedition}}>{{

 #vardefine: verifyedition | 

}}

Wolves cannot teleport across Minecraft:dimensions. As such, if the player is in another dimension than the wolf, it remains in its current dimension and automatically sits until the player allows it to stand. However, wolves can be transported to another dimension by pushing them into the portal first.

Tamed wolves do not teleport if:

  • The wolf has been ordered to sit.
    • Exception: The wolf is likely to teleport if it is injured while sitting (it no longer sits after teleporting). An example is if a wolf that is sitting is hit by another player, it teleports to their owner.
    • Exception: If the wolf is in a loaded chunk, and the player gets damaged by a mob, there's a chance for the wolf to stop sitting, causing them to teleport if the player is far away, then attack the player's attacker and sit down afterward.
  • The wolf is angry, e.g. if it is chasing after a skeleton. This can lead to wolves standing and jumping in one place, such as over a cavern if a skeleton is near. The wolf teleports once the skeleton is killed.
  • The wolf is in a Minecraft:minecart or a Minecraft:boat.
  • The wolf has been attached to a fence post with a lead.
  • The wolf is in an unloaded chunk, which can occur if the player moves away too quickly for the chunk to remain loaded (such as when flying with an elytra or travelling by boat on an ice highway).

Wolf teleportation is completely silent.<ref>Template:Bug</ref>

Taming, health, and feeding

File:Lots of tamed wolves.png

A wolf can be tamed by feeding it Minecraft:bones. Once tamed, a wolf does not accept any more bones. The number of bones required is random: each bone has a Template:Frac chance of taming the wolf. If the wolf is tamed, it receives a red collar and, in Template:Editions, sits if not swimming. There is no limit to the number of wolves that a player can tame. A wolf cannot be tamed if it is hostile or already tamed. Wolves that are tamed by the same player can accidentally attack each other while attacking another mob, leading to a fight.{{

}}

A tamed wolf's tail rises and lowers depending on its health. The exact health of an individual wolf can be determined by measuring the angle between its hind legs and tail. The angle indicates the percentage of health that the wolf has. Tamed wolves whine when they have low health (below Template:HpTemplate:Only / Template:HpTemplate:Only). Untamed wolves have a maximum health of Template:Hp; the position of an untamed wolf's tail does not depend on its health. Tamed wolves, as well as untamed wolves in Template:Editions, can be healed by feeding them any of the meat and fish items listed below.

Wolves do not get

  1. REDIRECT Template:EffectLink from eating rotten flesh and raw chicken, nor
  2. REDIRECT Template:EffectLink from eating pufferfish. Feeding any meat item to a tamed wolf that is already at full health starts the "love mode" animation.

A tamed wolf's collar color can be changed by the owner {{#vardefine: control | right click on mouse or left trigger on gamepad }}using one of the sixteen colored Minecraft:dyes on the wolf.

Using a wolf spawn egg on a tamed wolf makes the baby automatically be tamed to the parent wolf's owner.

Wolf armor

File:Wolf wearing Wolf Armor.png
A pale wolf wearing wolf armor.

{{#vardefine:params|0 }}Template:Hatnote

{{#vardefine: control | right click on mouse or left trigger on gamepad }}Using wolf armor on a wolf that the player has tamed equips it onto the wolf.

Wolf armor absorbs all damage done to the wolf with some exceptions (see the list below), until its durability runs out. When the armor absorbs damage, the wolf does not produce a hurt noise.

Baby or untamed wolves cannot wear armor.

Wolf armor does not absorb damage dealt by the following sources:

  • Drowning
  • Freezing
  • Suffocating
  • Magic
  • Thorns
  • The Wither effect
  • Void
  • Being outside the world border
  • Entity cramming
  • The Script error: No such module "command". command

If the owner uses Minecraft:shears on a wolf that is wearing armor, the armor gets unequipped from the wolf.

If a wolf dies while equipped with wolf armor, the armor is dropped.

A wolf armor's durability is 64 Durability points. It can make a cracking sound in certain points. Damage particles appear as the armor goes down 60, 44, and 20 points.

Repairing wolf armor recovers 8 durability points per armadillo scute. When merged with another wolf armor via crafting table or anvil it also gives a 5% durability bonus.

Breeding

{{#vardefine:params|0 }}Template:Hatnote

File:Sitting pup.png
A baby pale wolf sitting.

Tamed wolves at full health can be bred with any type of meat, including rotten flesh and raw chicken without causing the hunger status effect (see the list above). in Template:Editions, rabbit stew and any type of fish can also be used to breed wolves. There is a 5-minute cooldown in Minecraft:Java Edition and a 1-minute cooldown in Minecraft:Bedrock Edition for breeding, during which the wolf does not accept meat. In order to breed, both wolves must be standing.

Baby wolves have a 50% chance of being the same variant as either of its parents. Similar to a sheep's wool color, the color of a baby wolf's collar is a mix of the colors of the parents' collars, if it is possible to mix them; otherwise, one of the parents' collars is randomly chosen.

Similarly, breeding two wolves with different sound variants or a single one will produce a baby with a randomized sound variant. When the baby appears, a soundclip from one random sound variant will play, but the other sounds the baby makes come from a different variant.

Baby wolves take 24000 ticks (20 minutes) to grow, but the growth time can be accelerated {{#vardefine: control | right click on mouse or left trigger on gamepad }}using any type of meat; in Template:Editions, rabbit stew and any type of fish can also be used. Each use takes 10% off the remaining time to grow up.

Breeding two wolves that recognize someone else as an owner causes the baby to also be owned by the owner of the original two wolves. If two tamed wolves have different owners, the baby is randomly assigned to one of their two owners as its permanent owner.

in Template:Editions, if an untamed wolf is fed any type of meat or fish, it enters love mode but doesn't look for a partner and cannot breed.

Trivia

  • If a tamed wolf is named with a name tag, its name is shown in the chat to the owner when killed.
  • Despite being unused at the time, one of the two howling sounds can be heard in an official Mojang YouTube video.<ref>youtube-oM0efF8anO4 | oM0efF8anO4 }} "POV: YOU'RE A WOLF"  – Minecraft on YouTube, July 27, 2023</ref> The other one is heard twice in
  1. REDIRECT Template:AMCM

Template:Redr. A, potentially different howling sound can also be heard in the announcement trailer for Minecraft Dungeons II.<ref>Template:YouTube link</ref>

  • The different wolf variants were initially made just for fun, until they were deemed the perfect addition to the armadillos and wolf armor.<ref>youtube-LNO89rgNYQQ | LNO89rgNYQQ }} "All About The Armored Paws Drop"  – Minecraft on YouTube, April 21, 2024</ref>
  • In the April fools' snapshot 22w13oneBlockAtATime naming a wolf "Mars" gives it a unique texture.
  • In the April fools' snapshot 23w13a_or_b, naming a wolf "kingbdogz" using a name tag causes the wolf to be given a crown.
  • A wild baby wolf's head grows significantly when it becomes angry.
  • The wolf sound variants were recorded from various peoples' dogs who works during development of Minecraft 1.21.6.
  • The big wolf's death sound is not the same as the real one, but has been edited to closely match zombie villager's first and third ambient and ravager's first death sounds, because the real one has not been occasionally recorded due to the bad occurrence in the audio files, so it was pitched differently in the same pitch as zombie villager's first and third ambient sounds, and ravager's third stunning sound.
  • In singleplayer, if the player punches a wild wolf and leaves its field of vision, it stares at the player and does not move at all. Going back into its range causes it to continue pursuing the player.
  • If the player attacks a wolf, but then moves a large distance away (e.g. 70 blocks), the wolf still appears hostile, but exhibits neutral behavior.Template:Only
  • If a player uses the
  1. REDIRECT Template:Command

Template:Redr command to give a tamed wolf Health Boost 255, Absorption 255 and Regeneration 255, the wolf's tail may begin spinning all the way around constantly, or just point directly up.​<more information needed></more information needed>

  • With wild, tame, and angry states, baby and adult states, 9 variants, whether it is named "Dinnerbone"/"Grumm" or not, and specifically for tamed wolves sitting and standing states, 40 tail positions, 16 collar colors, whether it is wearing wolf armor and whether that armor is dyed or not, and 16,777,216 dyed wolf armor colors, there are 1,642,824,992,160 possible visually distinct wolves. Because dyeing armor is limited to about 5,439,691 colors in Template:Editions without the use of commands, 532,654,544,160 of those are obtainable through normal means.
  • A few of the sounds from the puppy also come from the sad sound variant. They may have have been pitched slightly for babies, despite still having the same pitch as the original one, the actual sound variants for adults is not working, but they may solve the problem from various users until the full release.
  • The spotted and striped variants are based on the African Painted Dog and the Aardwolf respectively.
    • Ironically, Aardwolfs not are canines, they are hyenas.
  • The puppy's first hurt sound (Template:Sound) is the sad wolf's second ambient sound (Template:Sound) but high-pitched.
