A Pup Named Cerebus/Cyclops

In Greek mythology Cerberus was a three headed dog that stood watch at the gates of Hades, the world of the dead. I wondered what he must have looked like as a puppy.

In Greek mythology a Cyclops is a member of a primordial race of giants, each with a single round eye in the middle of its forehead. In one of the most famous passages of Homer's Odyssey, the hero Odysseus encounters the Cyclops Polyphemus, the son of Poseidon and Thoosa, who lives with his fellow Cyclopes in a distant country.

Cerebus must've had a neglectfull owner when he(they?)was a puppy. If only he would have taken him on more walks, maybe a puppy training class at the local petsmart. Cute dog!
