I have a seriour issue. I want to play a druid, with a wolf animal companion, but I don't know how to figure out the HP for the wolf. The campaign we're staring out in you start at 10th level. So could someone help me understand how to figure in the bonus hit dice?

Thanks in Advance

Animal racial levels:

Animal d8 HD x3/4 (as cleric) Fort, Ref (and sometimes Will) 2 + Int mod per HD


[Edit]: So take your riding dog (since its strictly better than a wolf)

And this is what it'll be:

8d8HD +2/level (+16hp)
BaB: +6
AC: 10+10nat+4dex=24
Bite: +10 (6BaB, +4str)
+6 levels of Good Fort/Reflex and Poor Will saves.

Add in 3 Feats and 2 stat points, and thats all you gotta change. (Along with the druid companion progression feats.)

If I've missed anything else, feel free to pitch in.
