I don't really understand your complain, I must say ^^ Once you've build the stable, you just have to meet the merchant on the road, and you have it, that's all. For the others pets, you still have to have fed the dog, and to craft lures for the raptor, that's a bit the same. And what do you mean, a pet behind so many things ?
oh cause the way it sounded on the guide page for the game was that you had to do at least three different things to get it. example the side quest for the bandit fight so you can get a new area. sorry got confused by words that were wrong/similar to other words by the guide page. thanks for saying what I need to do. have a good day. Bye
