After updating from 1.21.4 to 1.21.5 in a vanilla survival world, all previously tamed pets (wolves, cats, etc.) remain stuck in the sitting position.
Right-clicking does not toggle sitting/standing
Leads do not make them move
Newly tamed pets are unaffected
Commands like
/tp,/data merge, and reloading the world have no effect
Expected Behavior:
Tamed pets should be able to stand and follow the player when right-clicked or pulled with a lead.
Actual Behavior:
All old tamed pets are frozen in a sitting pose after updating to 1.21.5.
Steps to Reproduce:
Have tamed pets in Minecraft 1.21.4
Update to 1.21.5
Try to interact with existing pets
Environment
Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.5 (Vanilla, Survival mode, Singleplayer, No mods)
Windows
not only did it also happen to me but this same issue seems to have affected every player’s pets on the server i play on (aside from my parrot because i tamed it yesterday) hopefully this issue can be fixed
