Mushroom the Yorkie
by abelcable
Mushroom the Yorkie puts a single small, devoted dog into a Fabric world, and a player can keep it nearby using treats, regular food and a dog bed.
What it does
Mushroom is a tiny Yorkie with big feelings. The dog trails its owner, accepts Yorkie treats and ordinary player food, sleeps indoors at night, requests a trip outdoors, eats from copper bowls, settles into a bed and retrieves a ball. Outside, it may chase sheep, bark, do loop-de-loops and barrel rolls, and get invested in nearby peaceful animals. Fabric API is required, and the mod is open source under the MIT License.
By default each player owns one loaded Mushroom, and creative spawn eggs create an owned one directly. The config file sets oneMushroomPerPlayer to false for creative worlds or servers that allow several Mushrooms per owner, and wake-up spawning can be configured too. Client and server both need the mod. Files target 1.21.1 and 1.21.11, and the latest Fabric file is 0.1.2+mc1.21.11 for 1.21.11, published on 2026-07-09 on the alpha channel.
Key features
Owned companion dog
Mushroom stays close to its owner, and a basic food bar appears while the two interact.
Feeding and treats
Yorkie treats tame and feed Mushroom and call it back, while normal edible food also works in an emergency.
Copper dog bowls
Copper dog bowls are crafted and filled with food and water, and each serving lasts one Minecraft day.
Dog bed and sleep
A dog bed crafted from wool and dye can be placed, and Mushroom curls up there at night.
Lost and returned
A loaded Mushroom that loses its owner for a full Minecraft day can be brought back to the player's bed after the next successful sleep.

How it compares
Pigs Eat Mushrooms is a Fabric server-side only mod released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, built for 1.21.5, so it adds nothing a client has to install. Dogs Unleashed is a Fabric client and server mod under the MIT License for 1.21.1, so both sides need it. Dairatz covers 1.21.1 – 1.21.11 on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge under the MIT License, and needs installation on both client and server.
