Where is John Wick’s Dog?
You find it at the Sinister Strip POI on the Season 3 map. It is locked in a cage surrounded by guards: two appear first and, once you down them, four more spawn. Show up well equipped.

How to rescue John Wick’s Dog step by step
Drop at the southern building in Sinister Strip
That is where the dog’s cage is. Landing straight there gets you ahead of the pack.
Grab weapons before the fight
You will face several guards, so build a decent loadout as soon as you land.
Take out the guards (heads up: more spawn)
Two appear first and, once you down them, four more arrive. Clear the area before approaching the cage.
Open the cage (E / X / Square)
Interact with the cage to free John Wick’s dog.
Pet it to unlock the Sidekick
One last interact and the dog is unlocked as a Sidekick for your future matches.
