Another thread title is pets and animals cuz I heard he used to be dogs or dog fighting or something but it still could have other venues like pool halls swimming pools grocery shopping like actually going to the grocery store like the bits and Bobs and they need to upgrade or update bits and bobs just food for thought

Sounds like you just wanna play the sims or something.
Uhhhh yeah I gotta agree with Shooby on this one. This is a crime game. When we had dogs, it was for combat, because that actually makes sense to have in a crime game. What you're proposing sounds more similar to a life sim game, like The Sims. You can always get mods for The Sims to make it more like Torn, but Torn certainly isn't going to become The Sims.
I definitely agree with you on this one, although being able to have a guard dog that you have to complete actions with to ensure proper health and care for(daily) may be another engagement piece.
Kind of like a defence enhancer but one that you have to take care of, fail to take care of the dog could have some form of consequence, maybe Duke puts a bounty on animal abusers..
The perk of having your companion dog could be that they can help defend you when attacked(but cannot be used as an offensive)
You could also have a city location where for a fee you can board your canine if you will be taking a vacation from Torn. Heck perhaps if you don’t have a PI with an airstrip you have to kennel the dog before every flight.
Just theories on how it could add onto game play in a viable way. At the end of the day, I do agree the disconnect between what I see in the the OP and the design of Torn is expansive.

Well... yeah... I mean, again, Torn had dogs at one point. They were used for combat, which, again, made sense. You could train em up to make them more helpful in fights. But they removed them and have shown no intentions to bring them back. I don't know why, nor do I know if they clarified why, but they were removed. And it seems like it's going to stay that way.
They were removed because they caused massive server issues and a data leak iirc and people would spam give dogs to staff and other players blowing up their events, even more so when they weren't taken care of.
There you have it
Yeah I remember that as a wee lad way back when, barely but it was a huge disaster.
1. idea doesn't fit the theming of the game at all
