I think wolves in Minecraft aren't as advanced now as they used to be. Before horses, 1.7 World Generation, and the Adventure Update, they seemed to be very advanced in Minecraft and they seemed to have the perfect abilities. But, after all these new and advanced updates brought in to Minecraft by Mojang, wolves seem to be left out. Sure, they got customizable collars and they can be bred, but that's it. I think they should be a little bit more useful in Minecraft than they are now. At the moment, they only attack mobs/players that either you attack or if they attack you. I think it would be it cool if they would do more than that. It would be cool if they could growl, or bark whenever there's a hostile monster or another player around so that way they could 'alert' their owner of a potential danger, rather than just attack whenever they make a move. It would also be pretty cool if they could have their own 'breeds' or color patterns, like how ocelots/cats or horses do. The only thing that can be different with a dog is it's collar, and that isn't much.
Do you agree or disagree with me on this topic? Do you think there should be any other updates to the wolves or other related mobs? Post it as a reply to this topic, so others can read it!
However, I DO agree that wolves are sort of useless and underpowered right now.

Why Minecraft mobs should NEVER have multiple attacks:
- No other PC mobs do. - Mob behaviour is intended to be simple.
Why you should NOT name new "special ability" weapons as "XXX Swords":
- No other swords have special abilities. - Make a new kind of weapon.
Wolves are defiantly underdeveloped at this point. breeds, more features like the growling, and possibly wolf armor would be perfect in my opinion.
Wolves are in many more combat situations than horses so it makes sense that they should have armor. they die so easy. finally I think wolves are way to uncontrollable. its very frustrating when you accidently punch your friend and end up having to kill your dog because he won't stop attacking them...
so: more control, more features, armor, and breeds.
Support! I really would like for wolves to have armor because they are so underpowered, and maybe they should only bark/growl/warn when a creeper is near you because it is currently the only stealthy mob

Thanks for the feedback guys!
"What do you want to add?
Specify, elaborate.
However, I DO agree that wolves are sort of useless and underpowered right now."
What I want to add is barks to when someone or something is around the player, possibly different textures (like horses and cats), or maybe some kind of armor or anything that would make it more advanced to be caught up with all the other mobs in Minecraft.
Perhaps make them trainable, so you could have wolves do certain things.
That should be a mod. Not Better Than Wolves; but Better With Wolves.
It would make a good mod, but I thought updating the wolves would fit snugly in the theme of 'adventure' for the "Adventure Update" of 1.8, assuming they follow the same update path. Anyways, thanks for the feedback! :S

I suggested armor that could be put on animals, all animals!
MrSnuggleWuggles I really like your profile picture haha its so cute anyway, Like other said armor would be nice
similar to a horse armor it would be iron, gold and diamond.
I also think that unlike horse armor wolf armor should be enchantable, and maybe but just maybe it should be able to be enchanted as well

Haha, thanks! But, enchantable dog armor would be really good, since your dog follows you to more places than your horse does. Great idea!
You're right. We don't NEED it, but that doesn't mean we still can't have it.
I would like the different textures because sometimes it gets dull having an army of wolves that are the same color. It would be cool if they had the same color-breeding pattern as they do with horses, where when you breed two of the same colors the chance for that color is significantly increased.
Support. Mainly because I play Hardcore, and the barking will help me alot.

"I am a tree. I breathe what you exhale, I exhale what you breathe. Remember that before you punch me down. Except when you create awesome houses. If that's the case, hack away!"
i would defiantlly brings dog with me more places if they had armor. if nothing else from this topic where to be added armor would be thing thing i choose.
another thing. Wolves should teleport over water, currently sailing over an ocean results in your furry friend being left on the shore never to be seen again.

Ha ha, I thought pig armor would be pretty cool before horses were around, and it would be pretty cool to have a pimped out cow in your pastures. :S

I think it would also be time for Minecraft to focus on the Hardcore players more often, also. :S
But that's another topic,
