More Dogs

This mod aims to add greater diversity to the canine species of Kenshi.
To this end it adds a total of 13 new canine species. 11 of the 13 species are wild animals and can be found roaming in nature. The remaining 2 species are domestic breeds of dog and can only be purchased in shops or found stray in the streets of the towns of The United Cities and The Holy Nation.

All dogs can be kept as pets. They have been added to wandering animal traders in their respective regions. Some dogs have been added to local animal traders in towns that fall inside of their territory. Both of the settled nomad towns sell the dogs that roam near their area. Finally, the Nomads faction will send a "Canine Trader" occassionally to your outpost. The canine trader has a chance to stock all species of dog.

The wild dogs all have respective "Alpha" animals that are included in their packs. The Alpha animal will drop a skin unique to it's race which along with some other materials can be used to research the crafting of a respective head armour which will provide a subtle but unique bonus depending on the species of dog it was crafted from. They can be crafted using the Leather Armour Crafting bench. They also look pretty cool. They can be researched in the "Animal Trophies" section of the tech tree from tech level 0. The skin also has higher monetary value that scales with the strength of the various species.

Credit for the more interesting species goes largely to my wife, who created the lovely retextures that they use.
