Carrying Capacity
A light load for a riding dog is up to 100 pounds; a medium load, 101-200 pounds; and a heavy load, 201-300 pounds. A riding dog can drag 1,500 pounds.
Combat
If trained for war, these animals can make trip attacks just as wolves do (see the Wolf entry). A riding dog can fight while carrying a rider, but the rider cannot also attack unless he or she succeeds on a Ride check. I have no idea what actually constitutes being trained for War, seems to be up to DM interpretation.
Skills
Riding dogs have a +4 racial bonus on Jump checks. *Riding dogs have a +4 racial bonus on Survival checks when tracking by scent.
Tricks: Combat Riding (see below), and 1st level Druid trick is attack again so Fenenn can attack creatues of all types.
Combat Riding: An animal trained to bear a rider into combat knows the tricks attack, come, defend, down, guard, and heel. Warhorses and riding dogs are already trained to bear riders into combat, and they don’t require any additional training for this purpose.
Description: Erf stands a mere 2' 2” high and has mottled greenish brown skin. He has large dark eyes that dart around furtively under an unruly mass of brown hair. He is protected by his faithful companion Fenenn a massive wolf hound whose shaggy coat grants the pair an oddly coordinated appearance.
Personality: Erf lives up to his name he is extremely friendly and loyal, though he is a little awkward socially and rather shy at first. His love for animals sometimes gets him into trouble, he still has scars from "The Incident with the Bear", and he cannot abide mistreatment of any animal wild or otherwise.
Unlike most of his kind who remain reclusive within their forest homes Erf is intensely curious about the civilized world. He finds City life both frightening and exhilarating and seeks to promote harmony between it and the natural world. A devoted follower of Verdante Erf believes that the development of civilization is part of a great cycle of all things and simply attempts to smooth the transition. Standing barely over two feet high he has come to hate bullies and is always keen to help the little guy, both literally and metaphorically.
Backstory: Erf spent the first hundred years of his life living amidst the vast Ebondark Forest in the Earth lands with his tribe the Owwed (means something like cherished diamond in Gnome). Erf became the pupil of the great Druid Vanuran (means dedicated keeper in Gnome), though they spoke seldom with Vanuran often frustrating Erf with cryptic pieces of wisdom and making the younger gnome think harder than his light hearted nature felt comfortable with.
One day Erf happened across a strange wolf-like creature near the edge of the forest and followed its trail. The dog, as Erf later learned the creature was known, lead him to the beginnings of the small Village of Daunton. As a guardian of the forest Erf took it upon himself to watch this strange and troubling development, quickly befriending the dog – Fenenn is a distant ancestor of this animal. Gradually Erf became known to the Villagers befriending some of the children whom – from Erf's point of view – grew rapidly to adulthood. Erf became fascinated by his new found friends tales of civilization and eventually plucked up the courage to head for the great population centers deeply skeptical of the unbelievable idea of thousands of people.
