Dog in the cemetery is supposed to be there, protecting the innocent from robbers.

And it looks like you have Spot. Or at least a puppy of Spots’. Congratulations. I bet if you plant a nice three season garden your pupper’s last mistress will grant you a visit.

Btw Cerebus in Greek means Spot.

I'm 99% sure the pup in the graveyard was a Church Grim.

In older times, churches always hosted graveyards. It was thought that the first being to be buried in the graveyard would have their soul bound to the place, and become its guardian. Thus, the inaugural burial was almost always for a dog that was a good guard dog in life. They're known as Church Grims.
