Denver

Denver is a city in Colorado overrun with feral dogs.

Background
The city was annexed by Caesar's Legion after they assimilated the Hangdogs, a tribe who inhabited the outskirts of the city. The packs of dogs are dangerous, swarming their targets and tearing them apart.

A tribe of people learned how to live with the dogs, treating the feral hounds as spirit animals, companions in the post-nuclear world. Between 2277 and 2281, Caesar's Legion came. The Hangdogs were assimilated and their culture wiped out, apart from their skill with dogs, with many being made houndmasters. .

The cost was steep, however, as Legate Lanius lost many men to a combination of factors, including supply lines stretched to the breaking point, and vicious dogs that killed many. The city remains dominated by feral dog packs which may include pre-War police cyberdogs,  and the Legion still procures its best dogs from the city.

Appearances
Denver is mentioned in Fallout: New Vegas and its add-on Lonesome Road.
