  • A recent patch already changed the assumptions and you have not checked updates yet
  • Your real question is about pet fit or route math, not editorial guidance

A wrong pet is usually a fit problem

Many pet mistakes happen because the pet was strong in general but weak for the actual route. The recovery starts by naming the job it failed.

Hold crops steady while fixing support

If you change crops and pets together, you will not know which change helped. Keep the crop route stable while testing a replacement.

Pet recovery works best when the base route stays readable.

Use one replacement candidate

Do not open every pet guide at once. Pick one replacement that solves the failed job and compare it against the current pet.
