A bunch of dogs lying down in the various poses available in this mod
About
Despite the name, this mod, in a literal sense, lets dogs that have been left sitting down too long, to actually lie down and get some rest.
After having sat for a configurable amount of time, without their owners close by, they will lie down to rest in a random position, and will excitedly jump back to sitting position once their owner gets close to them once more!
This mod is client-side only and requires Minecraft Forge. As this mod overrides the vanilla Wolf model and is purely cosmetic, it is unlikely compatible with mods that overhaul wolves/dogs such as Doggy Talents.
Fabric version available here.
