Hellhound

A Hellhound is an aggressive creature found in the nether, often in packs. It will attack remorselessly, and its bite can cause its victim to catch fire. Hellhounds will ignore players unless they attack or get too close.

When killed, a hell hound can drop Tongue of Dog and occasionally a Hellhound Head.

Hellhounds can be turned into normal wolves, by first inflicting them with a Potion of Weakness and then feeding them a Golden Apple. After some time, the conversion will occur, accelerated if the Hellhound is in a cage.
