Updated by Nathan Round on 21st November 2023:We have updated this guide to provide details on how to get a Tier II and III Hellhound, along with showcasing the locations of every Doghouse in Urzikstan.
Befriending A Hellish Companion
The first step to befriending a hellish companion is toobtain a Chunk Of Flesh- a rare item dropped by eliminated Zombies. Though your chances of finding this rare drop can be quite low, the most surefire way of securing one is throughkilling several Zombies with explosives.
Now that you have secured a Chunk Of Flesh, the next step is tolocate a Doghouse. Doghouses can be found in specific locations around Urzikstan, but will not be revealed on your tac map unless you are in proximity to one.

To summon your Hellhound companion, simply head on over to the Doghouse and interact with it. Next,place a Chunk Of Flesh into the Doghouse. Upon doing so, a friendly Hellhound will burst out of it, thus completing the Deadman’s Best Friend achievement.
To get theYou Can Pet The Dog trophy,you will need to pet your undead mutt after summoning him. To do this, simplyeliminate all enemies in the areaprior to summoning your Hellhound. If done correctly, your Hellhound will sit and a prompt to pet him will appear.

Upgrading Your Hellhound
Now that we have covered how to get a Tier I Hellhound companion, let’s discuss how to receive an upgraded Hellhound. Hellhounds come in three tiers, and in order to upgrade the tier of Hellhound you receive, you will need to distribute larger quantities of flesh into Doghouses within higher-tier zones.
