[CD] [HR] Neighborhood Stories: Adopt a Pet Causes Pets With Blank Breeds

I have been having this same problem but was not sure if it was a bug. Thanks for the report! It has been confusing editing Sims families and then being forced to name their pet breed before starting the game.

I am a pc player and the randomize works just fine for me and that is why I had posted it as a work around in another post. I did realize just now that I forgot to list two steps. I guess because most of us know to do it, but if you're like me sometimes you just don't think of stuff you're used to doing all of the time. Just wanted to point this out as I didn't realize the thread I posted it was primarily for console. I will pay better attention going forward and I felt it was important to pipe up here to let the powers that be know that it works for me as a pc user.

Updated steps that work for me as a pc user are....

Before entering CAS, make sure to turn on "testingcheats on" and "cas.fulleditmode"

In CAS by the check mark and X is a little dice button and to the left of the dice button is a little arrow button. Click the little arrow button and make it so that it will not randomize anything except pet clothes. Then click the dice button. it will put some outfit or whatever on your pet but that is ok for now. It should also set the pet breed as mixed or allow you to select one, but I think it will just set it as mixed. Then you can remove the clothes or select the clothes you want on your pet and save. So far this method has worked for me with no worry as to changing the look of my pet. 

Also it is not just adopt a pet as most of my sim's pets were strays and some of them had the issue. I also stole a pet from an npc's home and it had the issue too. Anyhow, just wanted to update this with all steps needed in case it can help someone. I go into CAS all of the time and forget to turn on the full edit mode 😗

I noticed this a few months ago when I was actively using the addition of pets through neighbor stories. In fact, this is a very unpleasant detail, because of which almost all edited pets for me have the breed "mongrel"
