Hotdog Daschund Description

The Hotdog Daschund is a legendary pet, added in the second half of the Cooking Event.

Appearance

The Hotdog Dachshund is a blend of a Daschund and a classic hotdog. Its body is shaped like a small daschshund with a tan bun-colored body, while the back features a strip of reddish sausage and orange squiggles resembling ketchup and mustard. It has floppy brown ears, black eyes, orange nose, and a mouth.

💡

Did You Know?

- The mustard effect was reworked from a percentage bonus (20–40% faster cooldown) to a tick-based bonus (0.25–0.50 faster).

This makes the maximum effect stronger than before (50% vs 40%).

🔍

How It Works

Loaded Dog: Every 80s to 240s, drops an 8 to 16 stud mustard or ketchup puddle that lasts 30 to 45 seconds.

Pets on mustard have their cooldowns tick 0.25 to 0.50 faster, and pets on ketchup gain 20% to 40% more experience!

Best For

Advanced pet cooldown optimization with mustard puddles (20-40% faster abilities)
Accelerated pet leveling through ketchup puddles (20-40% extra XP gains)
High-cooldown pet synergy with Raccoon, Kitsune, and Mimic Octopus positioning
Multi-puddle area control with strategic placement every 80-240 seconds

Pro Strategies

Cooldown Meta Positioning

Position high-value, long-cooldown pets like Raccoon (15min), Kitsune (22min), and Mimic Octopus near Hotdog Dachshund's mustard puddle zones. The 20-40% cooldown reduction significantly increases ability frequency for these expensive pets, maximizing their theft and duplication abilities.

XP Stacking Strategy

Create ketchup puddle XP farms by combining with Starfish, Blood Owl, and Capybara for explosive pet leveling. Manually move pets onto ketchup puddles during focused leveling sessions. Stack multiple Hotdog Dachshunds to create overlapping puddle coverage for consistent XP zones.

Puddle Management System

Track the 80-240 second puddle cycle timing and position pets accordingly. Each puddle lasts 30-45 seconds and covers 8-16 studs. Create designated 'puddle zones' in your garden where you can quickly move pets based on puddle type (mustard for abilities, ketchup for XP).

Multiple Dachshund Coverage

Deploy multiple Hotdog Dachshunds with strategic spacing to create constant puddle availability across your garden. This ensures pets always have access to appropriate buffs without micromanagement. Ideal for AFK strategies where pet positioning remains Static.

Alternatives

Budget: Manual Pet Toys

Cost: Small/Medium Pet Toys for individual pet buffs

Tradeoff: One-time use vs continuous area buffs, but much cheaper to obtain

Equipment

Nihonzaru for cooldown reduction (different mechanism but similar effect)
Various XP-boosting pets for leveling without puddle management

Common Mistakes

Random pet placement - missing puddle buff opportunities for valuable pets
Ignoring puddle timing - not preparing pets for incoming buff windows
Single Dachshund approach - insufficient coverage for large garden operations
Wrong puddle priorities - using ketchup for maxed pets or mustard for pets without abilities

Advanced Tips

Overnight AFK setup: position Moths and other overnight pets on ketchup zones
Event coordination: use mustard puddles during mutation events for faster pet cycles
Pet age optimization: focus ketchup puddles on pets approaching level 50 for mutations
Cooking synergy: mustard boosts for Gorilla Chef reduce cooking-related pet cooldowns
