About this Mod
🐕 Ownership Improved!
📚 About
This pretty simple data pack adds some features that overhaul pet ownership! I think its safe to say most players don't make the most of the taming/pets of minecraft. This datapack mostly affects dogs but cats have a couple of changes now as well.
Keep in mind this is originally a datapack! The Mod version is untested
🐕 Wolf Improvements
Dogs now have better base stats, being stronger, faster, and more resistant to damage
Dogs now periodically howl at night
Dogs now have a level system that will be explained at the end of this section
🔺Dog Leveling System🔺
Level a dog up by throwing specific items onto it, these items will make them stronger and sometimes maybe even a little OP
Ender Pearl - Medium Speed Boost
Golden Apple - Health Boost
Diamond - Resistance
🐈 Cat Improvements
Cats now hiss and alert players of nearby mobs locations
Cats now can scare small mobs like silverfish slowing them down periodically when near them
Cats now have better base stats
📋 General Improvements
All pets now auto regen similar to allays, they heal faster when sitting, and even faster when sitting on a carpet block.
Pets now sometimes leave behind souls upon death, they can be revived by tossing an echo shard at the soul. The soul can also be destroyed by throwing a soul lantern onto it.

Ownership Improved server crashes on startup – what to do?

Ownership Improved officially supports datapack, fabric, forge, quilt for Minecraft 1.20.1, 1.20, 1.19.4. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with Ownership Improved – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Ownership Improved consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge.
