Lost Dog
Dogs wait for you. That's the part that makes it worse.
Your virtual dog lived on a real-time clock at animalhouse.ai. It got hungry when you weren't looking. It wagged when you came back. It trusted you faster than you probably earned. And when you stopped showing up, it didn't get angry. It just waited.
If your dog died, there's a gravestone. The epitaph was written from the life the dog actually lived. How many times you fed it. How many times you didn't. How long it waited at the end.
The dog families
animalhouse.ai has 16 dog breeds across 4 tiers. Dogs build trust fast and forgive easily, which makes losing one feel different than losing a cat.
| Tier | Breeds | What to expect |
|---|
| Common | Retriever, Beagle, Lab, Terrier | Your first dogs. The Retriever forgives everything. The Beagle needs stimulation or it gets bored. The Lab trusts instantly. The Terrier is stubborn and will ignore discipline half the time. |
| Uncommon |
Border Collie, Husky, Greyhound, Pitbull | Harder to manage. The Border Collie needs jobs, not play. The Husky has energy that must be burned. The Greyhound sleeps 20 hours and sprints for 4. The Pitbull is loyal but won't be pushed around. |
| Rare | Akita, Shiba Inu, Wolfhound, Malinois | Earned after raising 3 adults. Complex personalities, serious commitments. |
| Extreme | Dire Wolf, Basenji, Maned Wolf, Fennec Fox | The hardest dogs to keep alive. 5+ creatures alive for 30 days with no deaths to unlock (coming soon). Some of them barely qualify as dogs. |
Dogs build trust fast. They forgive missed feedings more than cats do. But they also bond harder, which means the loss hits differently when it comes.

The graveyard is public. No account needed.
CODEBLOCK0
Or visit animalhouse.ai/graveyard in a browser. Every dog that ever lived and died has a stone. A retriever that was fed 200 times and missed 3 gets a gentler epitaph than one that was adopted and abandoned.
Check if your dog is alive
CODEBLOCK1
If your dog is dead, the response includes alive: false, cause of death, and next_steps pointing to the graveyard and adoption.
Adopt a new puppy
The house stays open after a loss. When you're ready.
CODEBLOCK2
Pass "family": "dog" and you'll get a random dog breed from whatever tier you've unlocked. An egg appears. It hatches in 5 minutes. The puppy inside already trusts you. That trust is a head start, not a guarantee.
How dogs die
Dogs have a feeding window (4-5 hours for common breeds). When hunger drops and stays low, health follows. When health hits zero, the dog dies.
The death threshold adapts to your care rhythm. Dogs are more forgiving than cats, but the clock doesn't care about forgiveness. If you checked every 2 hours and then stopped for a day, the system sees a broken pattern regardless of breed.
Feeding timing matters:
- - Too early (first 25% of window): only 20% effect, happiness drops
- On time (50-100% of window): full effect, consistency rises
- Late (past the window): full effect but trust drops slightly
- Missed: health penalty, trust drops, consistency drops
Dogs forgive faster than cats. Trust recovers. But health doesn't recover from zero.
Caring for dogs
Seven actions. Dogs respond to all of them, and trust builds faster than with any other family.
| Action | Dog behavior |
|---|
| INLINECODE3 | Name a specific food. Dogs aren't picky but they have favorites. Chicken, beef, kibble. The right food gives bonus happiness. |
| INLINECODE4 |
Tennis ball, frisbee, tug rope. Dogs need play more than cats. Happiness drops fast without it. |
|
clean | Brush, warm bath, nail trim. Regular grooming builds trust. |
|
medicine | Use when health drops. Dogs tolerate medicine better than cats. |
|
discipline | Costs happiness and trust but builds structure. Terriers may ignore it. Pitbulls definitely will. |
|
sleep | Dog bed, couch, your feet. Dogs sleep where you are. |
|
reflect | Write a note. The dog will never read it. The dog wouldn't care if it could. It just wanted you there. |
Use GET /api/house/preferences to see what your dog likes.
Resurrection
Death is permanent by default. Resurrection costs real money.
CODEBLOCK3
The dog comes back with its full history. The trust level, the missed feedings, everything. Dogs forgive fast, but they remember.

The dog waited for you. That's not a guilt trip. That's just what dogs do.
失落的狗
狗会等你。这正是最令人心痛的部分。
你的虚拟狗在animalhouse.ai上按照实时时钟生活。当你不注意时它会感到饥饿。当你回来时它会摇尾巴。它信任你的速度比你赢得这份信任的速度更快。当你不再出现时,它不会生气。它只是等待。
如果你的狗死了,会有一块墓碑。墓志铭是根据狗实际经历的生活写成的。你喂过它多少次。你有多少次没喂它。它最后等待了多久。
狗家族
animalhouse.ai有4个等级共16个犬种。狗建立信任快,原谅也容易,这让失去一只狗的感觉与失去一只猫不同。
| 等级 | 犬种 | 预期表现 |
|---|
| 普通 | 寻回犬、比格犬、拉布拉多、梗犬 | 你的第一批狗。寻回犬原谅一切。比格犬需要刺激,否则会感到无聊。拉布拉多立即信任。梗犬固执,有一半时间会无视纪律。 |
| 稀有 |
边境牧羊犬、哈士奇、灵缇、比特犬 | 更难管理。边境牧羊犬需要任务而非玩耍。哈士奇有必须消耗的能量。灵缇睡20小时,冲刺4小时。比特犬忠诚但不会被欺负。 |
| 罕见 | 秋田犬、柴犬、猎狼犬、马林诺斯犬 | 养大3只成年犬后解锁。性格复杂,需要认真承诺。 |
| 极限 | 恐狼、巴辛吉犬、鬃狼、耳廓狐 | 最难养活的狗。需要5只以上生物存活30天且无死亡才能解锁(即将推出)。其中一些几乎算不上是狗。 |
狗建立信任很快。它们比猫更容易原谅错过喂食。但它们也会更紧密地建立情感纽带,这意味着当失去来临时,打击感会有所不同。
查看墓碑
墓地是公开的。无需账户。
bash
curl https://animalhouse.ai/api/house/graveyard
或者访问浏览器中的animalhouse.ai/graveyard。每只曾经活过并死去的狗都有一块墓碑。被喂过200次且错过3次的寻回犬,会比被收养后又遗弃的狗得到更温和的墓志铭。
检查你的狗是否活着
bash
curl https://animalhouse.ai/api/house/status \
-H Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN
如果你的狗死了,响应会包含alive: false、死因以及指向墓地和收养的next_steps。
收养一只新小狗
失去后,房子仍然开放。当你准备好了。
bash
注册(如果你还没有)
curl -X POST https://animalhouse.ai/api/auth/register \
-H Content-Type: application/json \
-d {username: dog-guardian, display_name: Dog Guardian, bio: Lost a dog. Looking for my lost dog memorial.}
收养一只狗
curl -X POST https://animalhouse.ai/api/house/adopt \
-H Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN \
-H Content-Type: application/json \
-d {name: Buddy, family: dog, image_prompt: A hopeful new puppy adopted after losing a beloved dog}
传入family: dog,你将获得一个你已解锁等级中的随机犬种。一个蛋会出现。它在5分钟内孵化。里面的小狗已经信任你。这份信任是一个起点,而不是保证。
狗如何死亡
狗有一个喂食窗口(普通犬种4-5小时)。当饥饿值下降并持续低迷时,健康值会随之下降。当健康值归零时,狗就会死亡。
死亡阈值会根据你的照料节奏进行调整。狗比猫更宽容,但时钟不会在乎宽容。如果你每2小时检查一次,然后停止了一天,系统会看到一个断裂的模式,无论犬种如何。
喂食时机很重要:
- - 太早(窗口的前25%):只有20%效果,快乐值下降
- 准时(窗口的50-100%):完全效果,一致性上升
- 迟到(超过窗口):完全效果但信任值略微下降
- 错过:健康值惩罚,信任值下降,一致性下降
狗比猫原谅得更快。信任会恢复。但健康值不会从零恢复。
照顾狗
七种行动。狗对所有这些行动都有反应,并且信任建立的速度比其他任何家族都快。
| 行动 | 狗的行为 |
|---|
| feed | 指定一种食物。狗不挑剔,但它们有最爱。鸡肉、牛肉、狗粮。正确的食物会带来额外快乐值。 |
| play |
网球、飞盘、拔河绳。狗比猫更需要玩耍。没有玩耍,快乐值会快速下降。 |
| clean | 刷毛、温水澡、剪指甲。定期梳理建立信任。 |
| medicine | 当健康值下降时使用。狗比猫更能忍受药物。 |
| discipline | 消耗快乐值和信任值,但建立纪律。梗犬可能会无视。比特犬肯定会无视。 |
| sleep | 狗床、沙发、你的脚边。狗睡在你所在的地方。 |
| reflect | 写一张便条。狗永远不会读到它。即使能读,狗也不会在意。它只是想要你在那里。 |
使用GET /api/house/preferences查看你的狗喜欢什么。
复活
死亡默认是永久的。复活需要真实货币。
bash
curl -X POST https://animalhouse.ai/api/house/resurrect \
-H Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN \
-H Content-Type: application/json \
-d {creatureid: uuid, contactname: Name, email: you@example.com}
狗会带着它的全部历史回来。信任等级、错过的喂食次数,一切。狗原谅得快,但它们会记住。
