The new update

WOLVES! Yes, Minecraft has wolves now! The first official tameable mob has arrived! I WOULD show you personal pictures, but I have yet to find one in game. Wolves are VERY rare, and only spawn in forests and snowy areas. You feed them bones until they are tamed. Then, they follow you, fight for you, and are your loving pets. I'll update with pictures when I find one.

Advanced houses
