Skyrim:A Daedra's Best Friend

Daedric Quests·Skyrim

Summary

Once you reach the required level, a trip to Falkreath will net you an encounter with a guard asking a rather unusual question, namely if you have seen a stray dog running around outside town. Regardless of your answer, he will then point you to the local blacksmith, Lod, who can be found working his smithy during the day. When approached Lod will only show interest in one specific dog, a 'fine, strong creature that's been wandering near town', that he would like for you to catch for him. You can either accept his request to chase down the dog or pass an always successful Speech check to persuade him to pay you part of the gold up-front for your efforts. In either case, Lod will give you some fresh meat for bait.
