Most sources agree that Cerberus had three heads. The center head was in the shape of a lion, while the other two were in the shape of a dog and a wolf, respectively. He also had a dragon's tail and a thick mane of writhing snakes.
Cerberus was the watchdog of hell. Chained to the gates of Acheron, harassing the spirits entering Hades and devouring those who tried to escape. Cerberus has been used many times in various movies over the years.
