3. Blade Wolf

LQ-84i, later known as Blade Wolf and simply Wolf, is the first boss of Metal Gear Rising: Revengance and later, Raiden's robotic sidekick. After Raiden destroys the dog, Maverick manages to recover his consciousness, giving him a second chance. Aside from being a talking robotic dog, part of what makes Wolf so cool is his wide arsenal of weaponry, including heated knives and a chainsaw. Seriously, he's a talking robotic dog with a chainsaw. How cool is that? Aside from scouting ahead for Raiden, Blade Wolf is also playable in his own DLC campaign, where is true badassery shines. In his own personal campaign, he fights for freedom as he cuts Cyborgs in half with a chainsaw and tears out their spine for nourishment. Of all the dogs on this list, Blade Wolf earns his spot for being the only one to fight for freedom with a chainsaw.
