Topic: Blackwell Legacy - Can't get the dog out.

[Cluey]

Ok. So I'm late to the party on this game. It's all been great so far but I'm at the bit where it's night and I assume I have to take the neighbours dog to see the ghost in the park.

I've admittedly given in after clicking around for some time and consulted a walkthrough, which mentions using the pills with the dog biscuit. However, I don't have a dog biscuit and I can't find one anywhere. The Indian lady doesn't have any dialogue options apart from "Ask to Leave".

Am I missing something here?

Cluey, if I remember right...  8)

The Indian lady has a dog.

Maybe that dog will have a dog biscuit. 

Of course, you'll have to distract the dog first, to get it away from the dog bowl. 

Have you noticed that the dog barks at Joey, when he enters the room. 

Maybe Joey could help you out.

As Joey, talk to the dog, to make it bark at you. 

Now change back, and get dog biscuit from the dog bowl. 

Hope that helped.

Normally when talking to Ashanti, you should be able to

ask her for a cookie to give to the dog.

If not, you might to be far enough yet. Did you talk to Susan enough about Alli to learn about the dog?

Well. I loaded an earlier save (before Joey shows up) and I get that option when I ask about the dog. But on my later save there's no options at all apart from "Ask to leave".

I've exhausted all the dialogue options with everyone about everything and now it's just repeating.

I think I've actually discovered a game breaking point! I hardly spoke to Nishanti at all and now I can't talk to her about anything since it went past a certain point.

Guess I'll just have to start from the old save...

EDIT- Yep. It's a bug. Dave Gilbert knows about it. I've just checked the Wadjet forums and there's alot of people with the same issue.
