Canine is the name of the class of demonic dogs.
It is in fact a class of monster with three variations, identified by color:
- Hellhound (brown)
- Cerberus (red)
- Demon Wolf (blue)
The graphics for the Canine are from id Software's earlier game, Wolfenstein 3D (Mac family).
Although an enemy, the player can capture Canine with the use of the dog collar and use them as a shield.
Canines are most susceptible to attacks from shotguns.
