Minsc don't get find animal companion ability? Why? Wanna this work for him too.
He already has one, a giant miniature space one. ... And there's mods that utilize it.

Yep, Jarno Mikkola. my Mega Mod FAQ. Use of the BWS, and how to use it(scroll down that post a bit). 
OK, desert dweller, welcome to the sanity, you are free to search for the limit, it's out there, we drew it in the sand. Ouh, actually it was still snow then.. but anyways.

Mod name is Baldurdash with component Boo - Familiar of Minsc. I uninstalled it due to imbalance (Boo is too strong for hamster of that size, he regenerates full HP, when picked up, he can be used multiple times per day).

So are there specific zones that it is more likely to work in or am i just having bad luck.  everything seems to work fine, it shows up on my task bar, i click it, it goes through the dialog, but then i only get the choice of:  "you decide not to look for an animal companion right now".  im a level 3 human archer, should i just keep trying or did i possibly mess up on the install?  or, can the archer kit not get an animal companion?

Hm, level 3 should be enough to have success getting a companion and if you have the ability then there are no further checks for kits/classes so you're good.

Which companions are offered depends on the zone flags but there should rarely be a zone that has no companions at all. You can't get a companion before level 3 however, so maybe you were just unlucky when you tried with level 3? Could you give it another try in any normal zone (either a wilderness area or a city or a dungeon)?

i've only had one zone give me an option for a companion so far and it was for a dog, that's it.  ive roamed to every zone i have available and i always get the same message "you decide not to look for an animal companion at this time" or something like that.  im level 4 now.  i think Beregost is the only place ive had the dog be available.  I'm still trying other zones so, i dunno.

@Ulb does Animal Companions work with joinable NPC characters? Let's say I would like to install Kivan and Deheriana mod and our somber ranger would really appreciate a furry companion. Can I pick up one for him or does this not work? If not, is it a chance to add optional component for letting NPC ranger and druid characters to pick his companion?

It only works if the main character is a Ranger or Druid.
