Animal Crossing: New Horizons Fan Turns Their Dog Into a Villager Amiibo, And It's Adorable

An Animal Crossing: New Horizons fan has created an adorable Villager Amiibo dedicated to their dog. With how many animal types are represented in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, some may already resemble gamers' dogs, but this one is entirely unique.

In total, there are 35 different Animal Crossing: New Horizons Villager species' ranging from Alligators to Wolves. Beyond the different animals being represented, eight different personality types are applied to these characters, including cranky, lazy, and smug. There are also New Horizons characters that aren't classified as Villagers like The Able Sisters and Kapp'n that account for entirely separate animal types from the Villagers. There are 17 different dog Villagers who may arrive at a player's island in the latest Animal Crossing title. Going beyond the existing dog designs, one New Horizons fan has created a unique dog based on their real-life companion.

Reddit user GoldenGoddess_333 recently shared two images highlighting their dog compared to a custom Animal Crossing Amiibo card made by their partner that is meant to resemble the canine. The dog known as Lady Wiggles is represented by a new type of dog Villager not seen in the game. Unlike the existing Animal Crossing: New Horizons dogs, Lady Wiggles has ears that half flop towards the characters' eyes, which are multicolored like the cat Villager Raymond. Lady Wiggles has a snout that protrudes more than other dog Villagers, and it includes freckles like the ones above Bea's nose. Similar to other characters, Lady Wiggles has a big smile on her Amiibo card which may hint at a peppy personality. The real-life photo of Lady Wiggles showcases the accurate attention to detail regarding her fur and eye color and the position of her ears.

According to the Reddit user, the design of this Amiibo card was created in Photoshop, and it includes the background details like the dice number and a hand for Amiibo Festival's Rock, Paper, Scissors. An existing pattern is used
