How to Tame a Lizard Doggo in Satisfactory

Lizard Doggo's spawn randomly around the world in Satisfactory. But they're usually pretty easy to find. You'll often see them walking around on the beach or grassy regions with lots of trees in the game.

To tame a Lizard Doggo, you'll first need to collect Paleberries. They usually spawn in grassy biomes with dense forests. Once you find a Paleberrie plant, walk up to it and press 'E' to pick it up. Each plant gives you three Paleberries. To tame a Lizard Doggo, you'll only need one.

You can split Paleberries by right-clicking on the item in your inventory.

Once you have your Paleberries, you'll want to start hunting down a Lizard Doggo to tame. These creatures scare easily. So you don't want to run towards them. If you spot one from a distance, equip a Paleberry in your hand and head towards it slowly.

You'll want to stand completely still when the Lizard Doggo looks at you. Even moving the mouse around can sometimes scare them away. Open your inventory and drag one Paleberry out of it to drop it on the ground.

At this point, the Lizard Doggo will come up towards the Paleberry and eat it. Don't move while this happens, or the Doggo might run off again. After it's done eating, it will jump up and start acting all happy and playful. Now, you can walk up to the Lizard Doggo and press 'E' to pet. You've just tamed your first Lizard Doggo.

Choosing the Northern Forest as your Starting Area in Satisfactory is usually best since both Paleberries and Lizard Doggos are easier to find in that region.

If the Lizard Doggo doesn't jump after eating the Paleberry, this means he was scared at one point during the taming process. You need to walk further back and drop another Paleberry if that happens. Once it eats the second Paleberry, it will be tamed successfully.

How to Keep Lizard Doggo Safe in Satisfactory

Once you tame a Lizard Doggo, it will follow you around. However, it's extremely slow and won't be able to keep up with you if you move fast. To make matters worse, if you get too far from your pet, it will run away. You won't have to tame it again, and it will recognize you if you go back and find it, but it does make it tricky for the player to move around quickly.

Ideally, you want to lead your Lizard Doggo to your base and build a makeshift pen for it. You can build a Foundation and trap it by building four Walls around it to keep it from getting lost. Since Lizard Doggo can't jump, you won't have to worry about it running off and getting killed.

What Does a Lizard Doggo Do in Satisfactory

A tamed Lizard Doggo will randomly generate an item for the player at regular intervals. The amount of items generated can vary. Here are all the items that a Lizard Doggo can give you:

Item Type	Item Name
Ores	Iron Ore Copper Ore Limestone Coal Caterium Ore Sulfur SAM Ore Raw Quartz Uranium
Flora and Fauna	Leaves Wood Mycelia Flower Petals Blue Power Slug Yellow Power Slug Purple Power Slug Alien Organs
Consumables	Beryl Nut Paleberry Bacon Agaric
Components	Uranium Waste
Misc	Cup

Lizard Doggo also has an inventory slot that you can use as storage.

Lizard Doggo is a fun-loving creature in Satisfactory, which is evident from the joyful way it interacts with the player. Once you tame one, it will do its best to follow you around. But since it gets scared easily, it's best to leave him at your main hub, where he'll be safe.
