The Kitchen Storm update has introduced several new powerful pets, and one of the most interesting is the Legendary Hotdog Dachshund. This unique support pet can significantly speed up the progress of your other pets by providing powerful temporary buffs. This guide will explain exactly how to get it and how to use its abilities effectively.
How to Obtain the Hotdog Dachshund
The Hotdog Dachshund pet is an exclusive reward found inside the Culinarian Chest. The Culinarian Chest is the main reward container for the Kitchen Storm event and can be acquired in two ways:
- Purchasing it directly from the store for Robux.
- Earning it as a potential reward from the Rat Connoisseur by giving him mutated fruits.
While you can get the Hotdog Dachshund through random luck when opening any Culinarian Chest, the game includes a pity system to ensure you eventually receive it.
You are guaranteed to receive the Hotdog Dachshund pet on your 23rd Culinarian Chest opening.
This means that even if you have bad luck, you will get the pet after opening 23 chests. Any you get before that is just a lucky bonus!
How to Use the Hotdog Dachshund’s Abilities
The Hotdog Dachshund is a support pet that doesn’t fight but instead drops special puddles that provide buffs to any of your other pets that stand in them.
- Main Ability: Every four minutes, the Hotdog Dachshund drops either a mustard puddle or a ketchup puddle. The puddle lasts for 30 seconds.
The effects of the puddles are different, so you’ll need to position your pets strategically depending on your goal.
| Puddle Type | Effect | Strategic Use |
| Mustard Puddle | Grants 20% faster ability cooldowns to pets standing inside. | Ideal for your most powerful pets, allowing them to use their main skills more frequently. |
| Ketchup Puddle | Grants 20% more experience to pets standing inside. | Perfect for quickly leveling up your new or weaker pets. |
By placing the right pets in these puddles, you can significantly boost your garden’s overall efficiency, making the Hotdog Dachshund a top-tier Legendary pet worth acquiring.
