The Dog Island/Safe Areas

This page is about all the places on The Dog Island.

Puroro Town
This is the town where your dog (or Blackie, in this case) lives. Every year there is a big festival with fireworks and a treasure hunt. This place is also home to quite a few other friendly dogs, and it is where you start your adventure to The Dog Island.

Pupsville
This is the biggest village on the island, home to Dr. Potan who can help to cure your sister. You can also meet Noble, the village chairdog, who will let you use a house while you stay. There are plenty of dogs here who will need your help. You can buy accessories at Malshigues, buy herbs at the Restaurant, or just say hi to the locals.

Zoomy Village
This village is famouse for it's sniffing Dojo. Why not pay it a visit and become a pupil of Rode's? The village is also home to Victory Dogs Clark and Kurtis. And once on a mission to find her, you can meet Elaine (Francis' friend from childhood) too. To get here you need to get past a large gap (but there's no problem a little hippo food can't solve) and from here you get get to the Hoya Plains.

Gigili Village
Gigili Village is in a pit in the middle of the desert. You can race with Will, or go out into the Sandy Deserts. Remember to bring some of Obaba's antidote if you're getting close to snakes. You can meet Eisman (German for ice-cream) or frighten the camels with your bark. To get to here you will need to get rid of some dangerous bees blocking the way to the desert.

Chiro Village
Chiro Village is a village built in a cave just beond the Gola Highlands. Once you have moved a rock blocking the way you can go here and help out the dogs, or go into the Chiro Caves. According to one of the locals, the dogs in this village have been digging around to see if there's any water underground.

Snow Village
This is a village covered in snow. Pretty simple, right? Help out the wanderer, Henry, or do some Sled Racing with Bernard. If you want you can buy a hot drink to take with you into the Snowy Firlds incase you get a bit cold. Or meet the locals, like the dancer, Linda, and the husky, Sasha (who lives in 'A House'). Don't forget to dress warm.

Rune Village
This is the last village you will come across. You can get here from Dry Vally and then check out the Rune Canyon or the Rune Caverns. Help Tancredi find the hat his daughter gave him, or play Soccor with McCoy.

Green Meadows
At the beginning of the game, this is where you go to meet Yi Lu, who can teach you to sniff. It's also home to Bill, the former leader of the Victory Gang Dogs, who can help you to stop their pranks (well, sort of). Isaaki and his wife Sayori live here too, down at the beach. Not many dogs know this (but you will find out much later in the game) that the big tree in the middle of this area is apparently a secret passage to somewhere.

Treely Woods
The place with the most trees (as you might have guessed) and a few gorillas. Obaba, the healer, also lives hear and Goliath the Lumberjack can help if something needs fixing (or you want to get by that big log blocking the path to Zoomy Lake). Once it has been constructed, you can use a shortcut to get back to Pupsville.

El Dorado's Ship
El Dorado is the kind Cocker Spaniel pirate who will take you to The Dog Island…providing you sweep the decks and help his cook by catching some fish.
