Nelly! This is lovely! I've been constantly pondering a way to create more dimensions with pack territories, and none of them seemed so simple yet original as that!

The only problem I see is how to determine who borders who, and more specifically, when you take over a whole territory, how will we code another territory replace that border?

Now, before anyone says no allowing complete domination of a territory, how could we not? Think about it, if we have no way to dominate a territory, then what will happen to inactive accounts?
So then, to supplement Nelly's idea, I feel that any territory that is completely taken over will, instead of having a pack page, be able to "Relocate" and until they do so, they lose most pack abilities, and something or another will limit their hunting. However, this could be further used as a different way to play the game. It could, perhaps, have it's advantages to be.. Lets say.. A Nomadic pack.

This is my idea:

AWDs can live like packs. If possible, packs can border one another. For this, let's pretend me and Rosey border each other.
Let's say we each have territories size 3. This could be the default size.
Our packs can hunt and patrol and mark our territories.
Let's say I have lead AWDs named Winnie and Kodiak, and Rosey's alphas are Bella and Ace.
Now, let's say that you need to mark your territory every 12 hours. Let's say Rosey hasn't logged on yet and hasn't marked her borders.
Now, if I go patrol by that border, I can do one a few options.
I can hunt on her territory. If I successfully hunt, Rosey will get an alert about it. If not, when she goes to patrol she'll be able to scent my pack's smell on her territory.
I can move a few inches in to mark, kind of as a challenge or warning.
Or I can just mark my border normally and go home.

Now, Rosey and I can attempt to attack each other. Let's say I attack Rosey and I win. My territory will increase in size and hers will decrease. Now my territory is size 4 and Rosey's is size 2.
Let's say I'm successful and claim the rest of Rosey's territory. Mine will be size 6 and Rosey's will be 0. Rosey has no more territory - she's chased out and needs to find new territory. It will be the default size 3.
Of course, you wont be able dominate your neighbors. Although, the higher level and higher stats your lead AWD has, the more of a chance you'll get territory.

Of course, this isn't final. Just a suggestion.
So along with breeding and getting the best pack, you can also try to get the biggest territory.

Also, maybe every month, the AWD packs can meet for a peaceful gathering, like the gathering in the Warriors series. During this day or period of time, packs cannot attack each other and go about in peace. Maybe female battles can go on, or contests for the best AWDs, etc.

Just adding in goal suggestions.

I love this idea (thanks for using me and Bella and ace - I see what you did there -)
I think it's good but I think the newbies might be at risk of having the least survival skills unless we make it so the newbies - anything from 1-10 days maybe longer can't get triggered? If that makes sense,

Territories should be by ID#. So newbies could be next to each other.
More work does need to be put into the idea, yes.

The one and only.

Apologizing for potential double posting!
Maybe the pack that us 'driven out' could be basically prisoners that have to fight their way to freedom. While captive, the captured pack has limited hunting, and can only fight the pack that took them prisoner.

Perhaps when its a peaceful gathering there is a chance a female could get randomly impregnated from a male from a rival pack/ wild male? To add more diversity?

This idea is really awesome x) Perhaps there can be rare items that you can find/buy that improves your selected pup's chances of survival. Let's say its the only "albino" out of the litter of 5, and although you feed it the most its still at risk of predators, right? So this item 'wards away most predators, because they don't like the unusual smell.' Or something like that.

What about an aging system for adults? That way you need to have a subordinate female you plan on making the next dominant breeding alpha when the current alpha dies from old age. [Again, rare items to increase longevity?]

Hello! Welcome to the chat!

Badger: I've been around too long for a refund. The site had some real potential, I'll give it that. I'm guessing Direct just became too busy with their life to work on a game. Though, a message to all of us would have been really nice. Aug 10, 2016 3:13:37 GMT

Moriarty: So there is no chance for this site anymore? Man, I quite liked it. Aug 18, 2016 17:07:25 GMT

Artex: Hopefully things are just on hiatus, as this was so promising. Either way, I hope all is well with the crew! Sept 9, 2016 17:56:31 GMT

Guest: The game use to exist on a website. The domain looks like it has expired. The owner disappeared Dec 15, 2015. My assumption is, there is no way to play the game, and it will probably not come back. Jan 16, 2017 0:08:00 GMT

Guest: There is no possible way to download it, as it was never a "downloadable" game. Jan 16, 2017 0:08:20 GMT

Pandala_1: Unfortunately, the site is still down. As an alpha player it would have been nice to be given a heads up. It was a neat game that had true potential... Feb 25, 2017 15:18:18 GMT

Lummox: Ah, is that true? I'm so sorry this happened guys. I really did have high hopes for the game. I'm also sad to see our work go to waste. Mar 2, 2017 2:44:35 GMT

Guest: What exactly happened to cause the owner to just abandon it? Aug 31, 2017 19:30:33 GMT

Guest: Are there any plans to revive it? Aug 31, 2017 19:32:53 GMT

Guest: Man I love Wild Dogs, they're my all time favorite animal and I was looking forward to this website! It's a shame it was just abandoned like this..I've been debating on making one of my own however hopefully in the near future
