The War Dog is an Enemy in Ninja Gaiden 3 and Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge.

Appearance

• Day 3

Techniques

• Melee Attack: bites Hayabusa repeatedly at close range.
• Lunge Attack: jumps into the air and attacks Hayabusa from above.
• Throw Attack: leaps at Hayabusa and starts biting his neck.

Throw Techniques cannot be blocked, unless stated otherwise.

Strategy

• Not only they attack in packs, any of their rapid moves can stun Hayabusa long enough for nearby War Dogs within attack range to hit him too, adding damage up quickly, and may even hit Hayabusa out of the air with their Lunge Attack: prioritize taking care of them quickly.

• While the Izuna Drop cannot be used on them, any variant of this aerial combo works just fine, with (Quick, Strong, Quick, Quick, Quick, Quick Attack) resulting in an Instant Kill, if not interrupted.
