Dog Food is a packaged food item in The Long Dark.

Overview

Consuming Dog Food restores a moderate amount of calories and small amount of hydration. It cannot be warmed by a fire.

Like other canned foods, Dog Food may be opened with a Can Opener or bladed tool, or smashed open (with no tool) but spilling some of it's contents. If opened with a tool a Recycled Can is received after consuming the contents.

Dog Food is relatively common inside homes: usually in cupboards or on shelfs.

It has relatively high chance of causing Food Poisoning at low condition, compared to other canned foods.

Trivia

  • A possible explanation for Dog Food having such a high food poisoning chance, is the variance between animal grade and human grade foods.
  • The dog food is packaged as the product Dog's Best Friend.
  • The side of the can lists "Ingredients: Turkey, Beef, Chicken, Water, Calcium, Vitamin A, Vitamin D, Vitamin K."
  • Dog houses are occasionally found on the Island (like in Coastal Townsite), but dogs are never found.
