Hylian Retriever

Hylian Retrievers are animals in

The Hylian Retriever is an animal that is often found in pastures and around homes, as well as many stables. They are omnivorous, and will eat certain materials if presented with them. The materials that the Hylian Retriever will eat are relatively restrictive, and will eat most fruits and vegetables, but not herbs. They have been shown to eat meats, but not fish and seafood.

The Hylian Retriever is unique, and stands separately from other feedable animals in that they will follow the player if the player feeds them a varying number of the materials the retrievers will eat. If you walk slow enough for the retriever to follow you, there is a chance that the retriever may lead you to a buried Treasure Chest.

They will also move around, generally a lot more than any other domesticated animal, chasing their own tails, rolling onto their backs, crouching down, and even shaking their bodies to dispel water after they get wet, often during or after it rains.
