How to download and install Better Dogs Texture Pack

1. The Better Dogs texture pack only works if you also install Optifine. This mod is only available for the Minecraft PC version, so all Bedrock players will be left empty-handed. However, this should not confuse you, because the normal Better Dogs pack is not a mod.

2. Go to options after the complete installation of Optifine, then to video settings and finally click on quality. There you have to enable random entities. Do exactly the same for custom entity models. This is the most important step and you should make sure that you have done everything right.

3. Now download the Better Dogs texture pack. Obviously the file size is very small, because the textures have only a 16×16 resolution.

4. Now go to the options screen again, but this time go to resource packs. Click on “open pack folder” and move the downloaded Better Dogs texture pack into this folder.

5. It often happens that Minecraft asks you if you really want to load Better Dogs. The game mistakenly thinks that the pack was made for an older or newer version of the game. This is not true, so you can click “Yes” and import the file without any worries. This step is a stumbling block for many players because they are afraid of doing something wrong. There is no reason for this if you have done everything as described in this tutorial.
