Dog GTA 6 wildlife
The first animal Rockstar showed being studied: in the Extended Look, Jason can study a dog, pet it or scold it.
Dogs are where the field guide starts. Rockstar's Extended Look shows Jason walking up to a dog and getting three options: study it, pet it or scold it. Rockstar North's Rob Nelson later told IGN that you can study animals as a collection, much like Red Dead Redemption 2's compendium.
Dogs turn up wherever people do: on Vice City's streets and beaches, in backyards, and on hiking trails, as in a new screenshot of hikers walking a dog by a waterfall. Expect several breeds to count as separate entries. Rarity and exact spawn spots go in on launch day.

EstimateRockstar has named this animal. Its habitats are our reading of the footage and its real-world range until launch, when we pin its exact spawn points.
