Note 2: Some base functions are slightly bugged but can be fixed using the following workaround:
To make the dog breeds appear in-game, press F3 + T after taming a wolf / giving a tamed wolf a supported name tag.

Supported name tags, nametags, How it works
Guide - Adding custom name tags:
In this short guide we'll be adding a custom name tag for the golden retriever:
1) Go to the minecraft resource pack folder. (%appdata% > .minecraft > resourcepacks)
2) Open the version of the better dogs resource pack you're using.
3) Locate to assets/minecraft/Optifine/mob/wolf.
4) Open the wolf_tame.properties file using notepad++ or a similair text editing tool.
5) Press ctrl + f and type in the breed you want to add a custom name for (in this example we'll use the golden retriever)
6) The file will jump to the following lines:
skins.26=11 12
name.26=iregex:.*(golden retriever|golden).*
weights.26=1 1
7) The following line shows the current supported name tags:
name.26=iregex:.*(golden retriever|golden).*
8) We're adding the following custom name: Mike wazowski. We'll seperate this custom name from the other names by using the " | " symbol:
skins.26=11 12
name.26=iregex:.*(golden retriever|golden|Mike wazowski).*
weights.26=1 1
9) Overwrite the current wolf_tame.properties file. The custom name Mike wazowski will now be supported.
(If you're already in game while changing these files, press F3 + t at the same time to refresh your active resource packs).
Note:
- This guide works for all breeds, not just the golden retriever.
- Other people using this resource pack won't see the same breed as you when using a custom added name tag unless they go trough this same process and add the same names.
