All Doghouse Locations in MW3 Zombies

A Zombie's best friend

If you want your fiery friend to help you around Urzikstan, you need to find a Doghouse location in MW3 Zombies. Only around a dozen are on the entire map, but I can at least give you all the possible spots within the mode.

Every Doghouse Location in Modern Warfare 3 Zombies

In MW3 Zombies, there are 16 different Doghouse locations spread across all three threat levels, with a majority of them on the edges of Urzikstan. Most of them are in Tier 1, but you can find some within the medium to high threat levels as well. Below is the full map of all the possible spawns in Urzikstan.

The map you see above has all 16 possible spawns, but you won’t be able to see every single one when you search for them. Only a handful of all the possible Doghouse locations will actually appear in a given match. So my suggestion is to keep the map open on an extra screen or your phone so you can continue searching Urzikstan. If you don’t see the icon, then it’s time to head to a new location.

If you take a look at the main map in MW3 Zombies, you’ll see that there are no Doghouse icons at all. That’s because they only appear when you get close to them or reach the required radius. Orbs work in the exact same way, which means exploring the map in your deployment is even more important.

When you do finally reach a Doghouse, make sure you have a picture of a dog so that you can befriend the Hellhound that’s waiting inside. Otherwise, the house has nothing to offer you aside from an empty inventory.

How to Get a Pet Dog in MW3 Zombies

To get a pet dog in MW3 Zombies, you must find a Chunk of Flesh, which is acquired by causing a zombie to explode through methods like using a Pack A Punch weapon, explosives, or headshots. Place the Chunk of Flesh inside the Doghouse, similar to a Deadbolt Turret. A dog will emerge to greet you!
