What? You mean there is no "Gelert" that's a hero?
The story of a dog slain in error after killing a wolf seems to have been attached to Llewellyn about 1793-4 by a local inn-keeper. A common enough occurrence along the same lines of hotels and taverns placing signs like "Ye Olde Inne" to attract more custom. William Spencer visited Beddgelert and, on hearing the tale, wrote his popular ballad about the faithful Gelert and so the story grew into the speech and hearsay of Wales.

Some corrections:
I think you meant walrus for the tuskaninny.
Draik - Drake
Donna's account is named Donna.

Oh? I always thought Lupe was named after Lupin, some word for wolf (but is also a flower).
