Stardew Valley Fan Wishes There Was A Way To Bring This Furry Companion Inside During The Cold Winter Nights
A fan has raised an interesting point about a feature missing from the game. Having pets is a major part of the experience. Although they're incredibly easy to care for (just add water), they're nice to have around the farm, and the feeling of satisfaction you get from raising their affection levels to the max is unparalleled — even compared to some of the full-fledged romanceable companions.

(That might assuage some fears, but there's still the worry of making the dog's water too warm.)
User frogally had a different kind of idea. Sure, there's no way to bring your dog in on cold weather days in vanilla, but the modding community's creativity knows no
