Puppies aren't just for hauling and turning into leather! This lightweight mod allows colonists to play fetch with tamed animals, satisfying their recreation need and slowly training their Animals skill.
By default, a colonist can only play fetch with an animal if their skill is high enough to train it. This makes dogs and cats more useful, since they require no ranks in the skill - but if you want your whole colony to play with your thrumbo, you can turn on "Allow All Animals" in the mod's settings.
Fetch! is compatible with existing saves. It requires HugsLib.
