Actually, being able to obtain raccoon is just a myth, you can't.
The only pets you can get are a dog, which you obtain at the beginning of the game, and a cat. Befriending Romana will get you the cat, but only after or during the first year of chapter 2.
You can get ducks, though I wouldn't really count it as a pet, by having a pond built in chapter 1 while raising 4 or more chickens.

But those are all the pets you can obtain.

I have seen firsthand an old friend who had the Raccoon on their farm, with them in HM: A wonderful life. I heard the same person also had a Chihuahua in a separate game, but I didn't get to see it that day.

but how and when ?

Am I coming back after 11 years to respond to this? Yes. The manual of the game says which animals you can personally obtain, hence, where my info came from. It takes but a couple minutes to glance through it to find an answer. Animals like the raccoon can be see appearing around the village, but only as hidden little details, but they cannot be obtained as pets. I still get responses about this from time to time, but there has yet to be any shred of evidence pointing otherwise. There are no videos, no articles, and again, the manual has specifically denied this. So, if you're going to argue, please provide proof.

Natsume themselves said you can only get the dog and cat. Anyone who says otherwise is lying ... prove it...show us the pictures. You can't because you can't get them. The chihuahus is the biggest lie. Again...Natsume said you couldn't get any other pets except the dog and cat. That includes the lizard, turtle, owl, raccoon and yes....the chihuahua.

no you can find the chihuahua i see him all the time at the dig site if you find all 4 tablets in the dig site you get it
Layla94 said: 31st Dec 2015 | REPORT
Explain the Ducks then, if what Natsume says is true.
And don't say that a duck is not a pet, I think it's very clear that by "pet" everyone meant extra animals you get from eastereggs or extras.

No, the ducks are not pets. They lay eggs and make you money, therefore they are not counted as pets. I don't know about all the others being true or not, but I'm trying to get them anyway lol
Guest said: 24th Aug 2017 | REPORT
You can definitely get the chihuahua, I have. You befriend the people at the dig and at some point when you go to the dig it will give you a cut scene.
nightmare2 answered:

Alright. Natsume said you can only get a dog and a cat.
Dog you find or something.
Cat you befriend the old lady in the big house.
Lizard you befriend the big foot thing.
YES, you can get one. look it up on youtube.
Racoon is a yes too.

You can also get the turtle from Cody after you befriend him and he saves you grom drowning. And there is an Owl pet you can only get from the sprites in chapter 1 if you befriend every single resident in your first year. Only thing you cant get that you cansee is the Lizard with bandages on its leg
Guest answered:

Chihuahua you can get but it's really hard. You have to have found all 6 tablets and be friends with carter and flora. Raccoon comes from vesta after you've gotten the great field and the hoe from Tim you can get the other hoe from vesta then she will give you a raccoon for all your hard work. The lizard you can get by being friends with muhamuka after seeing the cutscene the lizard shows up at your doorstep a few days later. They rreally do nothing other than lay lazily around your farm. Also there is a game glitch where you can bring your dog inside once while it's raining then it can come in anytime. If you have a toddler he will snuggle with the dog and it's super cute but he doesn't like being shown the dog

i wish u could get the mukamuka
Guest answered:

FACT: (Can definitely obtain)
Cat: Befriend Romana, she'll come to your door with a cat (in year 2 I think).
Chihuahua: Find the four stone tablets and befriend at least Carter, maybe Flora too.
Duck: Build pond in year 1, then in year 2 (around summertime) your wife will see and ask to keep them.

LEGEND: (Unsure of reality)
Lizard: Befriend Mukumuku in the first year (He likes fish).
Raccoon: Befriend Vesta and get Vesta's and Tim's hoe AND the Great Field.
Turtle from Turtle Swamp: It is rumored that you can befriend Cody to obtain the turtle. I don't know when or the details of this legend, I've just heard it's possible.

-Layla94
P.S. Please don't call others liars just because you didn't get these achievements yourself.
And I don't know what to say about Natsume saying you can only get dog, and cat. You CAN get the Chihuahua and Duck at least.
