Like the Dragon Kite, the Worg Pup may change its color (black or brown) each time it's summoned.

However, after patch 5.1 the Dragon Kite stopped changing colors upon summon. Lead content designer Cory Stockton has mentioned that developers are working on a way to return the Worg Pup back to its original color-changing state.

Prior to patch 4.0.3, this pet could be obtained from the quest [59]Kibler's Exotic Pets.

My worg pup has never changed from black to brown since patch 5.2 when they supposedly "fixed" him... does anyone have any info? I'd like to see him brown once in awhile :(

They're fixing him!! 5.2 notes: Pets whose color schemes change each time they are summoned have returned. Older pets with this behavior now have it back, as well as some newcomers.

I used to summon this until it turned brown, since it can be both brown and black, and I prefer the brown. But after 5.1 I have summoned it 40+ times and it is black every time. Am I just really unlucky or did they change it, when they repaired the colourchanging pets, one had won in battles?

 

Edit: I could just read Breannis notes and get the answer. >.<

Hoping someone else could check something. I just bought, to my surprise, both the Worg Pup and Smolderweb Hatchling from Karin <Stable Master> in Stormwind. I may not have looked properly but neither appeared to be of limited supply - but I bought both, learned them on my alt and checked the vendor again to find only a Rope Leash for sale. Anyone else encountered this?

Edit: Appaears it was a kind of reimbursement of lost pets on an old toon! :)

Since the quests are gone, now you get the worg pup as a drop from killing Quartermaster Zigris, just as you get the smolderweb hatchling from killing Mother Smolderweb.

http://www.wowhead.com/npc=9736 QuarterMaster Zigris drops the Worg Pup now - he is not as easily defeated (60-70) as Mother - but 70+ may get him. He has help and he is Bad to the Bone - if you try killing his help first he is coming so be ready for it.

Got this little guy today, Along with the Smolderweb Hatchling. Solo'd the instance on my lvl 74 hunter pretty easily. Both pets dropped on the first run and I'm planning on going through it again to help a friend get it, hopefully the 100% drop rate is correct. Was sooo happy when I got these two, especially the pup since it completed my wolf family. I now have the wolf mounts, a wolf pet (called Spire since I tamed him in that very instance) and the pup.

Just picked up a spider while doing it. Just head to Black Rock mountain, take the entrance with the orcs (half way up), and head down as low as you can killing everything in your path. Eventually you will hit the horde village and kill the quartermaster for the pup.

The new drop system for this pet and the Smolderweb Hatchling definitely makes it easier for my Bloodsail Admiral character to obtain these pets. I was considering grinding my warlock's character reputation via silk just to complete her collection since I made the mistake of getting that feat of strength first without completing the quests for the pets. Now I don't have to worry about that - thanks Blizz!

Same as the Smolderweb Hatchling, since patch 4.0.6 this is now a drop from Lower Blackrock Spire, this one from Quartermaster Zigris. I believe the drop rate is 100%.

It does drop from Zigris on the PTR. Despite still having a silver dragon, Zigris seems to be there every ID, and always drops the carrier.

Best thing about this pet is that he will change colors after being resummoned a few times.

Kibler doesn't offer the quest anymore. WoWhead says "Kibler's Exotic Pets" is no longer in the game. Any idea if one can still get this or the (also dead) En-Ay-Es-Tee-Why pet some other way?

Like it's been suggested, if you're aiming to finish the Worg Pup quest, might as well consolidate and finish the Smolderweb Hatchling quest.

And for a fun addendum, go for the Leeeeeeeeeeeeeroy! Jenkins achievement. It's in the same dungeon, just make a left turn instead of the right turn the moment you enter the instance. Be forewarned, the area-effect abilities of some classes post-patch 4.0 were tuned down.

Got this gorgeous pet when I was in the high 60s. Did it with my boyfriend's pet collector who is 80. Easy to do. But I didn't get him the first time because they died before I realised I had to catch them. But we did it again straight away. And the pup is really worth it :)

The Worg is another favored pet of mine. I remember doing the quest in Hillsbard to poison the worg pup on one of the Alliances' farms, and felt so bad after doing it that I wanted a worg pet of my own. So when I realized there was a quest for pet some time later, I jumped at the chance. :) I've not regretted it since!

I love this little guy. Granted, he may be just a scaled version of a regular worg, but as a Hunter, he looks like the puppy version of my tamed Sentry Worg.

Every hunter can use a trusty hunting worg. Furthermore, every feral druid loves the company of this feral friend. Orcs do well with worgs… after all, the worg is orc's best friend. Contrary to dwarves, whose best friend is beer. Night elves, with their naturalistic heritage, make excellent worg caretakers. And tauren do as well for similar reasons. Are you getting all this? There will be a test at the end of next week.
