Shaggy Dog Cave is a location in West of Loathing. It can be found by wandering. The cave consists of a long tunnel with a series of plaques that tell the story of the journey of a band of folks who sought out Shaggy Dog Cave. The story makes mention of a shaggy dog seen riding a horse, presumably after whom the cave is named.
