How to buy a dog in "The Sims 4"

In order to adopt a dog, you must have the extension "The Sims 4 - Dogs & Cats". If so, there are two ways to add the dog to your household. That will cost you 200 Simoleons. We show you which ways there are:

• Telephone: Call up the mobile phone, click on the house symbol and select "Engage service". Scroll down and choose "adopt dog".
• Computer: Click on the PC and then on "Household". Select "Adopt" and then "Adopt dog".

What you need to consider when adopting a dog

• You can choose up to three dogs per adoption. These are brought over by the adoption agent. This way you can get to know the dogs better. Puppies and adult dogs are available.
• If you could get an impression of the dogs, you can click on the desired animal and select "Adopt". Confirm the selection and name your dog.
• You can also adopt all three dogs and pay 200 Simoleons per adoption. If you don't like a dog or have changed your mind, you can always go to the adoption broker and click on "End adoption assessment". This is how you complete the adoption of a dog.
