Creature Profile - Faerie Dogs

The faerie dogs come from English Mythology, although are also seen in Scottish and Irish folklore, and are also known as the Cù Sìth. In some tales they are the guardians to crossroads which are a door to the world of the faeries. They have green fur and are roughly the size of a large calf, although some tales describe them as being bull sized. If encountered, they will bark once or twice as a warning, yet if they bark a third time the listener is doomed to die. Link to the drawing here: http://www.deviantart.com/art/Cu-Sith-306844474
