In just a little over a month, Minecraft Dungeons will be out! I'm super-excited to see it released.

I got the idea from reading about how to tame a wolf . I will tame two wolves and then breed them to make little wolf pups. Once those grow and I have a pack of 5-7 wolves, I think I'll be ready to take on a village raid. This guy did it with a team of four wolves, but he had some help with potions and a Totem of Undying .
