A dog named Joe 6

A dog named Joe 6

What it does

• On every join, each player gets a tamed wolf companion named Joe spawned next to them.
• The wolf is owned by the joining player, follows them, and will defend them from hostile targets like a normal tamed wolf.
• Existing Joes owned by the player are reused and teleported to the player if they were in another world.
• Joe is kept unsitting and marked to stay loaded so he keeps following instead of despawning.

Implementation notes

• Join listener schedules companion setup one tick after login, then either finds an owned wolf named Joe or spawns a new one.
• Companion setup ensures name visibility, tamed state, ownership, no sitting, and prevents far-away despawn.

Known limitations / tips

• Only wolves already named Joe and owned by the player are reused; other tamed wolves are left untouched.
• If a player intentionally dismisses or harms Joe, a new one will appear the next time they join.
