Core Hound Pup

The Core Hound Pup is a gift from Blizzard to any user who is using an authenticator on their account. Enjoy! :-D This pet went live on 12/9/2009 with 3.3 (and was a COMPLETE suprise to everyone in the WoW community).

Now you can have a watch dog that watches the front AND back door at the same time! WIN!

Important Note From Below: Mobile Authenticator is practically free if you have an iPhone or iPod touch. Meaning the pet is free also. :-)

Here is the text of the mail the cute little guy comes with:

" Hello!

Please give a warm welcome to your new fiery, friendly Core Hound Pup!

I'm so happy you could give this fiesty little fellow a home.

--Breanni"

Confirmed by me as well, I have an authenticator. Logged in and the little bugger in the mail. Very cute and sassy pet.

Actions I've noticed:

1. Gets up on his hind legs and begs, yaps, howls.

2. Rolls over occasionally.

3.One head summons a bone and chews on it, while the other fights for it, then he bounces back on his hind legs, flips the bone in the air and eats it whole.

Loving this pet already.

Mobile Authenticator is practically free. What this does though is encourage people to get an authenticator and therefore it increases account security across the board. I think this is a fantastic initiative.
