Resident Evil 4 Remake has a shocking amount of side content to sink your teeth into. Completing each of these “requests” will award Spindels which can be spent with the Merchant to acquire exclusive items. This makes them extremely valuable, and thus completing them is more than worth it. When it comes to a particular request regarding a Savage Mutt, finding and defeating it can be a challenge. Here is how to defeat the Savage Mutt in Resident Evil 4 Remake.
Where to Find the Strong Threat Dog in Resident Evil 4 Remake
Once you have the request, you will want to head to the Village Chief’s Manor, located near the central village. Once there, head to the second floor of the manor where you will find the attic, which can only be accessed by giving Ashley a boost. Once up in the attic, grab all the free loot while you are there. Then, drop back down and head outside. Behind the gate to the village will be a strange-looking dog. This is the Savage Mutt you want to take down, though getting near the gate will cause it to run away.
Follow the Savage Mutt to the village, and it will finally want to engage in battle with you. It is a slightly modified variant of your standard hound enemy, so throwing a few more shots into it should do the trick. Keep firing, and eventually, it will go down. Once it is dead, head to the nearest Merchant and you will complete the request, scoring those sweet Spindels.
