ORTHRUS/ORTHROS/ORTHUS/ORTHOS
Origin: Greek Mythology.
Description: Was a two-headed dog.
Born Of: Typhon and Echidna. Brother of Cerberus.
Myths:
He was owned by the three-bodied giant, Geryon. Orthrus and his master, Eurytion, were charged with guarding Geryon’s herd of red cattle in the “senset” land of Erytheia (“red one”), one of the islands of the Hesperides in the far west of the Mediterranean. Heracles eventually slew Orthrus, Erution, and Geryon, before taking the red cattle to complete his tenth labor.

Sorry for the radio silence! Starting the new year off finally with a Pupocolypse doodle done during downtime at work!
Inspired by my aunt’s dog who loves to say “play with me” by shoving a small shred of her slobber soaked toy carcass in your lap!
Definitely want to color this but I’m happy with how the sketch came out so here’s a sip for now!
