I found out that I could summon the dog shortly after entering Kirkwall, and used him on several occasions. However, I've noticed that after visiting Gemlen's house, my dog doesn't follow me around. When I call him in combat he will fight any and all enemies nearby, but after all of the enemies are dead, the dog just walks back to the location he was summoned and doesn't move at all until I leave the area and need to call him again.
I'm pretty sure I had him following me prior to visiting the house, so is this supposed to happen? Or did I encounter a bug?
Dog glitch?

Same thing happens to me as well, so I've stopped using him for now (I don't feel like wasting two tactic slots to summon/dismiss him).

good so i am not the only one. he was doing great during the into. it was like the ranger class in dao. then when i was going thru the warehouse noticed he was just sitting where i summoned him. i kind makes him useless unless u send him away after the fight but still kinda crappy. hope they fix that. shame there was no beta to catch the problem before release.

I've found that if you save/reload then he becomes unstuck.
Either that or unsummon him whenever you are done with a fight.

I guess I'm having this bug too. I haven't noticed his post-combat actions and will check later.
He was with me in the Lothering escape and then not with me at some point after the ship landed. I think he was missing long before I found the house, but I assumed he was gone for now.
After later finding him in the house, I thought I needed to make something happen and then he would be a party member choice, so I kept interacting with him. It was only recently that I noticed the Sustained ability to summon him.
I'm able to summon him just fine, but I find that the Sustained ability keeps turning itself off and he disappears. I haven't taken the time to narrow down when this seems to happen.
Perhaps when you enter public areas? If the idea is for you not to be walking around in public with a mabari war hound then fine, I just wish he would automatically pop back up at the beginning of combat.
If he's going poof when he dies, I wish the Sustained ability would remain sustained and he would pop back after the combat in which he died.
Perhaps it's random. Maybe someone else can help narrow it down.
I'd quite like to have him up all the time for no Sustained slot or mana/stamina cost.

Everyone on this thread say they have this bug, so I'd like to go on the record as saying i do not have this bug at all.

In this case, he does in fact disappear when you enter a new area (gather your party and venture forth). I don't think that's a glitch. The problem that a lot of people are having is that when you summon the dog in battle, he will fight anything around him until the enemies are clear. Sometimes, however, instead of just following you like he should, he walks to the exact spot where he was summoned, and stands there immoveable. You can push the dog around, but he is stuck and won't follow.
A workaround is to save/reload and he'll start following you again, BUT, if you had named the dog, his name will be just "Dog" instead of whatever you named it.

It comes and goes for me. Sometimes, Dog follows me just fine... but once in a while, he's utterly useless. I'm thinking this is an intermittent glitch.

Intermittent for me also. I'm not sure but it seems to happen when a battle ends close to where I summoned my dog.

After some testing I have feedback:
My dog isn't standing around after a fight - he follows the party and engages in other fights in that zone. No problem.
The rest I put in it's own thread

Did you start using the dog before named him at the house? Perhaps that could be causing the dogs name to glitch back to the default "Dog"

Yes, I did. That could be a cause then.

Any news on this bug? It's getting annoying as hell having to keep summoning and dismissing my dog at every fight.
