Description
Summary: Craftable wolf armor in 7 materials, wolf chest storage, auto-healing, and more. Ported to 1.20.1 Forge with some new enhancements! Now compatible with Jade!
Equip your tamed wolves with craftable armor in 7 different materials, give them a chest for portable storage, and watch them heal themselves from food in their inventory. This port also adds some more material-specific special effects, vanilla enchanting support, and vanilla loot table integration that weren't in the original.
