Actually, he’s the only dog you have to pay for and costs a full 500 gold. Vigilance is a war dog for sale at the stables in Markarth.
These loyal dogs will fight by your side and obey your commands, but they cannot carry your burdens. If you’re looking for a dog as a Skyrim companion, you have your choice of a few four-legged friends. In fact dogs are the only animals that can become followers, and there are only a few such faithful hounds in all of Skyrim.
Part of the confusion might stem from the fact that there are several dogs in Skyrim that cannot become followers (take the dog in Riverwood for example - he’ll bark for you pretty as you please, but there’s not a chance in Oblivion that he’ll follow you anywhere). Surprisingly, 42% of poll takers didn’t even know that you could have a dog in the game. In last week’s poll, we asked readers if they ever had a dog as a Skyrim companion. He followed me home from the Dwemer ruins. Just like in the real world, a dog can truly be your very best friend. Sure, you can fork over 500 gold and retain the services of several good hirelings (see our earlier article Help Wanted: Finding the Best Hirelings in Skyrim), but why not forego a two-legged follower and get yourself a dog? Or better yet, get a hireling and a dog (yep, with a dog you can have two companions at the same time). The world of Skyrim is vast, and exploring this northern province of Tamriel can be a lonely business at times.
