Getting the Hellhound in MW3 Zombies

Learn how to get your own Hellhound companion in MW3 Zombies! We'll guide you through finding the Doghouse and the essential 'Chunk of Flesh' item.

Alright, so you wanna get yourself a Hellhound buddy in MW3 Zombies? It's a pretty cool little sidekick to have, and thankfully, it's not too complicated once you know what you're doing. Think of it like this: you need a special ingredient and a specific spot to make it happen.

First things first, you need to snag an item called A Chunk of Flesh. This bad boy drops randomly from regular zombies. Yeah, I know, 'random' isn't always the best word, but your best bet is to take on bigger groups of zombies. The more you fight, the better your odds of one of them dropping this chunk.

Once you've got your Chunk of Flesh, pull up your map. You're looking for a specific Point of Interest (POI) called a Doghouse. Now, these don't just pop up on your map all the time; you usually have to be pretty close to one for it to appear. So, just keep exploring the Zombies map like you normally would, and keep an eye out. You'll eventually stumble across one.

When you finally find a Doghouse, clear out any zombies hanging around it – gotta make sure it's safe for your new friend, right? Then, walk up to the Doghouse and interact with it. On PlayStation, you'll press Square, and on Xbox, it's the corresponding button (usually X). You'll then need to open your Rucksack, find that Chunk of Flesh you've been holding onto, and deposit it into the Doghouse.

Boom! A friendly Hellhound will pop out and stick with you, helping you fight for the rest of your run. Just a heads-up, though: this Hellhound isn't invincible. It has its own health bar, so keep an eye on it, especially if it gets swarmed by a ton of enemies. Jump in and help it out if you see it struggling.

If, by some chance, your Hellhound does go down, don't sweat it. You can just repeat the whole process: find another Doghouse, deposit another Chunk of Flesh, and summon a new one. It's a bit of a grind, but totally worth it for the extra firepower!
