I think that it is annoying to see people running around with 20 pet wolves without a care in the world. In addition to being unfair, wolves count towards the peaceful mob count, so they can cause less valuable chickens, pigs, cows, and sheep to spawn. I think that a limit on the number of wolves allowed per player should be limited so as to reduce lag, increase security, and level the playing field between new and old players. Maybe the cap should be around 5 or 6, not too low or too high. Existing wolf owners above the cap would simply not be able to tame any more wolves and would be asked to let theirs go.

Not sure how enforceable this would be, but if it would allow other mobs to spawn more often, then it sounds good to me.

Add a Poll. *turns to audience* THIS IS A GREAT IDEA!!!

This would be glorious.

I believe they already despawn if there are too many in one area just like other mobs.

Tamed wolves don't despawn!

I tried doing this once, i had a pack of 15 wolves following me. Then i killed them all. They wouldnt stop barking.

Some sure dissapear though. I used to have 3 then one despawned or something then I got 2 more and now Im back down to 3 as another dissapeared on me too.

Now sure a mob couldve attacked it but the one that dissapeared was in the center of them all...

Im for a limit as well as long as ones that dissapear on you and you cant find it arent counted towards your limit.

I always tame wolves because I know they'll sacrifice themselves for me. That, or I kill them soon after taming them since they're so annoying and jumpy and always in the way.

Either way, they're disposable and wouldn't be missed. I would prefer being able to find cows or pigs or chicken for food.

They do already despawn.
