Doug (HM64)

Doug (ダッド) is a character in Harvest Moon 64.

Doug works at Green Ranch with his children Ann and Gray; his wife died when they were children. He is very protective of his children and has tried his best to take care of them. He is also the uncle of Rick. When the player first starts on the farm, Doug is doubtful that he has what it takes to run a ranch. However, he warms up to him as the game progresses.

Apart from selling livestock and ranch supplies, Doug can also enter the player's dog, horse, and cows into their respective races and festival. If the player gives him a piece of corn, he will be given the Corn Fritter recipe.

Locations

 * Any day except Thursday: Green Ranch
 * Night: Bar

Events

 * If the player talks to Doug at the Bar, Doug will be grouchy and mention that he starts grumbling when he drinks too much. However, after Ann marries Cliff, he will be much more jovial and mention that things "have settled down".
 * On Fall 30 of Year 1, Doug will come by and ask the player to watch three calves for him in Winter. If the player cares for them correctly, Doug will pay them 1,000 G and get increased affection.
 * If the player has high affection with Ann and Doug is at the Bar, he will ask if the player likes Ann or only sees her as a friend. If the player says "just a friend", Doug becomes sad that no one will view Ann as a woman. If the player says they like her, Doug will be immensely happy and says Ann is theirs, even offering a cow (though he never actually gives one).
