How to Tame Lizard Doggo in Satisfactory
Welcome to the wild world of Satisfactory, where you can encounter one of the game's cutest creatures: the Lizard Doggo. This friendly, reptilian pup is not just adorable but also useful in your resource-gathering adventures. Here’s your ultimate guide to taming your very own Lizard Doggo and making the most of this delightful companion!
Spotting and Preparing for the Taming Process
First things first, you need to find a Lizard Doggo. These little guys are scattered all over the map, so keep your eyes peeled during your explorations. They come in a vibrant orange with a white belly stripe and a quirky blue tongue, making them hard to miss. Once you've spotted one, it's time to get ready to tame it.

Before approaching, make sure you have Paleberries on hand. These berries are the key to winning the Lizard Doggo's affection and are commonly found in grassy biomes. You’ll need to gather a few because they’re the treat that will lure your new friend to you.

Taming
Here’s where it gets fun! To tame a Lizard Doggo, you need to be super stealthy. Start by approaching the creature slowly—no sudden movements or running! If you get too close too quickly, the Lizard Doggo will scurry away. The trick is to get close enough that it starts to stare at you with those big, curious eyes.

Next, prepare a Paleberry by splitting it from your inventory. Drag this single berry onto the ground near the Lizard Doggo.

Now, stand perfectly still. The Lizard Doggo will eventually notice the berry, come over, and munch it down. Once it’s done eating, approach it and press ‘E’ to pet it. If done right, your new Lizard Doggo will jump up, wag its tail, and be ready to follow you around!
Keeping Your Lizard Doggo Safe
Now that you’ve tamed your Lizard Doggo, you’ll need to keep it safe. These creatures are a bit fragile. They can fall off high ledges and are prone to getting lost if you wander too far. To avoid this, build a secure pen using Foundations and Walls. Ensure the pen is sturdy because Lizard Doggos can’t jump or climb, and they might get stuck if your pen isn’t properly enclosed.

Additionally, if you’re dealing with radioactive materials like Uranium Waste, you’ll want to set up a disposal system. Create two Storage Containers: one at your Lizard Doggo's pen and one far away from your base. Connect them with a conveyor belt. When your Lizard Doggo brings waste, quickly move it to the distant container to avoid radiation damage. Alternatively, for a quicker fix, you can sacrifice the Lizard Doggo to dispose of the waste, though this is not for the faint of heart as the creature will need to be tamed again later.
What Your Lizard Doggo Can Do
Aside from being a cute companion, your Lizard Doggo has some practical benefits. It can gather items randomly, including ores, flora, and even the coveted Power Slugs. This can be especially handy when you're in need of additional resources. However, remember that the items it generates are pulled from thin air and do not deplete the world’s resources.
Troubleshooting and Tips
If you find that your Lizard Doggo disappears or falls through the map, it’s usually because it was not in a secure location. Keep your pens on solid ground and avoid leaving your pet in precarious spots. If a Lizard Doggo vanishes, you can often locate and reposition it using the Satisfactory calculator by adjusting its coordinates.

Remember, Lizard Doggos can be quite skittish, so always approach them carefully and avoid using Blade Runners or jumping around them to prevent them from fleeing.
Taming a Lizard Doggo in Satisfactory is a rewarding experience that adds a touch of charm and utility to your game. With a bit of patience and the right approach, you’ll have a loyal companion that not only looks adorable but can also help you gather valuable resources. So, grab those Paleberries, prepare to move slowly, and enjoy the new addition to your Satisfactory adventures!
