Collar 8, the FEV reject, the super mutant. He's docile, predictable and provided not starving, should be easy to command.

Father Elijah

Find Collar 8: "Dog" is a quest in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Dead Money.

Synopsis[]

A nightkin named Dog is locked up in the Villa police station and Elijah needs him released.

Walkthrough[]

  1. Go to the Villa Police Station.
  2. Head to the basement as God instructs, pick up the Dog command tape and play it.
  3. Talk to God and choose whether to keep the God personality present, or bring back the Dog personality by playing the command tape again.

Quest stages[]

StageStatusDescription
1 Find Dog at the police station in the Villa.
2 Search the basement of the police station for a way to free Dog from his cell.
3 Play the basement audio log on your Pip-Boy near Dog's cell
4Quest finishedRecruit Dog

Notes[]

  • There is no way to exit "neutrally" from Dog/God's dialogue; if you are not ready to recruit Dog, do not talk to him.

Bugs[]

  • PCIcon pc PlayStation 3Icon ps3 Xbox 360Icon xbox360 When recruiting Dog and God, a glitch may cause you to be unable to talk to God/Dog and in turn be unable to send him to the fountain where Father Elijah waits. Father Elijah then continues to ask why you have come without finding all the companions, and also you won't complete the achievement for recruiting all of the Dead Money companions even if you actually have. Consequently this also makes you unable to complete the add-on and you will have to restart your game or load a save game prior to visiting the Sierra Madre. PC users can use this mod as a temporary fix.
  • Xbox 360Icon xbox360 When entering the basement of the Villa police station to retrieve the Dog command tape, you may not hear God's voice, though subtitles will appear if enabled.
