Do the mission as usual until to the point where you're supposed to follow the dog. Since the dog is not moving, you will have to figure out the pathway yourself.

1. Walk out of the kindergarten via the north-east exit, and proceed to the northwest, follow the road until you reach the drugstore and get to the camp nearby.



If you're doing this correctly, the dog will suddenly teleport at this spot (doggo is ghost confirmed).


2. Now keep going through the camp and head west until you reach the wooden sidewalk. Stop right there, and wait there until new mission appears.



The delay is meant so that the game "waits" for the doggo to arrive there, but since the doggo is bugged and not moving, the doggo will not appear. Don't worry, however, since the game has certain timer instead of actually waiting for the dog, so the mission is still going like normal.

3. Once the new mission appear, do what you're told to do. After that, you will be asked to follow the dog again. Simply walk back to the main camp where you start in the zone. Sylvie Dawson will be waiting for you nearby, and the dog following mission will be automatically completed there.


4. Talk to Sylvie Dawson, and she will end your quest and now you're slightly more of a friend to her. yay!

Congratulations! You have cheated the bug and successfully avoid the disaster of missing a day to befriend a dog!
