ive looked through 2 villages
didnt see any furnaces, anvils, anything like that
i registered last night and was able to buy it like an hour or two ago... lol
The village should have a place with a sign with an anvil.
That place also has a furnace. :)
Also, i am trying my hardest to not cheat and look up stuff on the wiki, but i had to check how you tame a pet.
Turns out you indeed just need to have the food out.
I thought you had to press a button to try the food on the animal.
Now to find something better then my doggy. <3
