MC-17051Dogs attack Horses
I was riding my new horse back to base and when I got there I suffocated in a block for a second when I rode into a 2 block high space. I though nothing of it until I heard my dogs growling, so I let them roam around and realized they were trying to attack my horse. The only thing I could think of (since horses can't attack you) is that the suffocating in a block had triggered the dogs. I've already killed my dogs so I don't have a screenshot of them doing so, though.

Unable to reproduce. You must've hit the horse somehow.
I've made it so that wolves will ignore tame horses when the player hits them
This is still happening with untamed horses. The dogs try to attack but nothing happens. They just kind of push it around
This is still happening in 1.6.1.
Not sure if the horse hurt the dog or the horse somehow hurt me, but on the vanilla 1.6.1 server, my wife was on a horse, as was I. Then my wolves attacked her horse but of course she was on it and took all the damage. She died.
So definitely not fixed.
Wolves can only deal damage to what they're targeting, so in this case the wolf was trying to kill your wife, not your wife's horse.
Are the wolves attacking my traveling companion expected behavior ?
Yes, if you attack her or she attacks you.
Thanks for the quick replies. Is there some way of designating her as a friendly so they wont attack her no matter what?
I've done some changes now (for 1.6.2). First of all, wolves weren't able to hurt horses at all previously, which they can do now. However, in order to stop accidental kills of family members, you can now tell wolves to stop attacking by sitting them down (previously they would still remember the target and continue the attack).
Cool! That helps. Ive been telling them to sit now but even that is hard when the wife is screaming and running away hahah.
Would be great if there was a server setting for semi private servers of just your buddies to say dogs cant attack humans at all.
aggression=false in the properties file or something haha.
