The Peculiar Pooch Of Alpha 177

This strange canine creature (Canis Alfa) appeared in Star Trek: The Original Series in the episode The Enemy Within.

Appearance
This odd breed is covered in a thick orange hair to keep it warm in the cold nights of its home planet. It has a single white horn jutting out of its forehead. In addition, it has black and white striped antennae next to the horn. It also has a long ridge scrawling down its back. The creature had a completely hairless orange striped tail and legs.

Behavior
It appears as a very docile and gentle creature, as various members of the crew hold it throughout the episode. A transporter malfunction creates a hostile duplicate of the gentle canine. In the end, both specimens die when they attempted to merge them together with the transporter.
