Soldier, Unhappy Returns

The War Dog is a community-created cosmetic item for the Soldier. It turns the Soldier's head into that of a brown Bulldog, with a darker lower jaw, darker spots on his left eye and the back of the head, and floppy cheeks.

The head comes with fully-enabled facial flexing for voice commands and responses.

This item has two styles, named "No Helmet" and "Helmet". The "No Helmet" style removes the Soldier's default helmet, while the "Helmet" style keeps it.

This item can only be worn around Halloween or during a Full Moon; at other times of the year, it does not appear in gameplay, unless the server has Halloween mode enabled. However, it can be equipped at any time and can still be viewed on the loadout screen even when it is not visible during games.

The War Dog was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
