This list is a good start, but it's very clearly missing top Pomeranian, object swapper extraordinaire, and a dog that died multiple times and waited ten years to manipulate the player into saving his humans,Missile! Also, the other Missile for good measure.

I think the player-named wolf/Greyhound/Poodle/hovertoaster from Secret of Evermore also deserves a spot on the list. It takes a very good boy to find alchemy ingredients with the game's dedicated sniff button!

Maybe Boney and King from Mother 3 and Earthbound too.

What about all the Nintendogs? Too generic?

There's also Roger and all the robot dogs and dog/car and dog/plane hybrids from Space Station Silicon Valley. That game (if not the dogs) inspired parts of GTA3 so that's not nothing.

I am open to any and all suggestions for good boys, but I need links if they're in the wiki.

Cerberus in Hades was a very good boy. I think that's the right link, there seem to be a lot of Cerberuseseses.

I love Dogmeat. I want to squish his beautiful face and rub his belly forever. But, he doesn't belong on this list. He's a total clutz and a safety hazard - I've died from low-level raiders thanks to dogmeat's fat arse blocking me from moving into cover or finding an exit. Chop should be higher than Dogmeat and the lack of Cheeseburger (the diabetic bear) and Boomer just breaks my little heart.

@grizdotcom: I tried to find Boomer in the wiki but was unsuccessful. I agree he belongs on this list.

As for a bear, a bear is not a good boy!

Also, any digital dog requiring me to clean up his poop gets last place for official Good Boyism.

How about the dogs from Rule of Rose and Haunting Ground? They're good help-you-survive-the-survival-horor boys! Hell, Hewie is so good he helps Leon fight the first El Gigante in RE4 if you rescue him.

I also second King and Boney from Earthbound and Mother 3, especially Boney since he stays in your party for almost the whole game and is a big help.

@electricbarrier: I somehow missed King and Boney in the earlier post. Thanks for pointing them out!

Nice list. I would add Shadow from the Dead to Rights games, and it would probably belong near the top of the list. They actually made four of those games, I was surprised to learn, and I imagine that Shadow is in all of them. https://www.giantbomb.com/shadow-the-dog/3005-14623/
