Wolfs appearing to be standing up while sitting

after downloading the 1.4.4 pre-release I went and tamed some wolves and when I came back to my shelter and sat them down they actually did sit down. after that I left and when I came back they were all standing up but they were acting as if they were sitting down. I tried right clicking them but they didn't do anything still behaving as if they were sitting. I don't know if this happens in creative mode as well.

I've seen this happen from time to time, quite old bug isn't it?

I don't know. its never happened to me until today. but it sure is annoying

I've seen this as far back as 1.2.5 it seems to be a possible desynch between the client and server. I'm keeping an eye on this and other animal related tickets as there seems to be a possible case relation in the tamed animal AI, or the aforementioned possible desynch happening, but not enough evidence yet to relate the tickets.

Did this happen on a local game or were you connecting to a remote server?

This happened while I was in a local game.
if its in the "tamed animal AI" (if it is) then couldn't it happen to cats as well?

I got this bug a lot on 1.4.2, not so much now. The "fix" I found without re-login was dropping water on the wolfs. Don't work if they are on half-slabs, they need to get wet to reset the sitting.

For me this happened sometimes when I was attacked, the wolves get up to defend me but I killed the mob before and they sit again, but looked like they were standing.

okay ill try the water thing next time it happens. thanks!

In previous versions I have seen the same behavior in cats. I cannot confirm the current version however, currently not at home where I can test.

This happens a lot to me and my friends. The way I fix it is by hitting my wolf once and it sits down.

The dog will not follow you until you restart the game. The dog does rotate to point at you but otherwise ignores you.

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.

I can confirm that this is still happening in 1.5.1. It seems to happen when I've been attacked by a hostile mob - my wolves stand up to come and help me and then stay standing up but act as if still sitting.
