Wolf Armor and Storage Enhanced (MuddyPort)
by MuddyMonkey
Wolf Armor and Storage Enhanced lets players equip tamed wolves with craftable armor in seven materials and give them a chest for carrying items.
What it does
Tamed wolves can be fitted with armor made from seven materials, from leather to netherite, and the armor is visible on the wolf through custom render layers. Each tier trades off protection against crafting cost: leather is the cheapest early option, chainmail is found only as dungeon loot, and netherite gives the wolf permanent Fire Resistance. Enchantments such as Protection, Fire Protection, Blast Protection, Projectile Protection and Unbreaking can be applied to the armor at an anvil.
A right-click on a tamed wolf with a Wolf Chest attaches storage, and shift plus right-click opens a 14-slot inventory. Wolves with a chest eat food from it to heal themselves, and the stored items drop on death. Wolf armor also spawns naturally in dungeons, Nether Fortresses, Desert Temples and Jungle Temples through loot table integration. The mod targets Forge for 1.20.1 and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Its behavior can be adjusted in a config file, including how often wolves howl at night.
Key features
Seven armor materials
Armor is craftable in leather, copper, chainmail, iron, gold, diamond and netherite, with a distinct defense level for each.
Wolf Chest storage
A chest attached to a tamed wolf opens a 14-slot inventory, and the wolf eats food from it to heal itself.
Material-specific effects
Chainmail boosts the wolf's attacks, gold adds a Looting II effect when the wolf kills, and diamond grants knockback resistance.
Enchantment support
Armor takes the usual protection and Unbreaking enchantments at an anvil, and the mod works with vanilla enchanting.
Wolf howling
Every so often at night, wolves let out a howl that comes with custom sound effects, and a config file option switches it off.
