The Guard Hounds (ガードハウンド, Gādo Haundo?) are a recurring enemy type from the Final Fantasy VII series. They appear to be canines with an almost feline body-shape and a long tentacle from the base of the neck. In other entries of the Compilation, the Guard Hounds are given droopy cheeks and gain a Great Dane-like appearance.
