Now that ain't nice. Coughio up el weedo, before I blow your brains all over the patio.
— Big Smoke trying to speak Spanish with a Vago Member.

Running Dog is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, given to protagonist Carl Johnson by Big Smoke from his house in Idlewood, Los Santos, San Andreas.

Overview

Carl goes to Smoke's house. Upon arriving there, he finds Officer Frank Tenpenny and Officer Eddie Pulaski leaving his house. Smoke tells Carl that they are trying to extract information from him. Later on, he tells him that his cousin is coming to town.

The two drive to a place to meet two Vagos gang members. After a short mixed Spanglish conversation, Smoke knocks one out using a baseball bat while the other runs away. Carl manages to catch and kill the other Vagos member.

Mission objectives

In order to complete the mission the player must:

  • Get into Big Smoke's car
  • Drive Big Smoke to the meet
  • Chase down the gang member

Reward

The reward for this mission is increased respect. The mission Wrong Side of the Tracks is unlocked.

Tips

  • It is a good idea to get your stamina up before doing this mission.
  • This mission may become difficult if the player is overweight or obese.

Trivia

  • Despite there is no money reward the player can collect about $500 after killing the Vagos member.
  • This is the only mission given by Big Smoke where you aren't required to use a motorbike.
  • During this mission, if you just follow the gang member in a car, he will enter in a Sentinel with another member and will shoot you if you get close.
  • A dialogue was cut before release[1]
  • In the Beta Version, after killing the Vagos, the player needs to go back to Big Smoke Car and take him back to his house, this objective was cut before release.
  • The line the second Vagos member uses roughly translates to "Fuck you, bastard.". And afterwards "Fuck your mother, dickhead."
  • The place where Carl and Big Smoke park is the same place where Carl and Sweet park to discuss their plans for Big Smoke during End of The Line.
