There are hounds a plenty in Greek myth, however, no "hell-hounds" these are the invention of author Rick Riordan.
Hounds in Greek myth include:
Cerberus, the three headed hound that guards the gates of Hades.
Orthus, the two headed dog of Geryon.
Laelaps, the dog that always catches his prey, given to Europa when set upon the Teumesian Fox, destined never to be caught, Zeus put these into the heavens as the Canis Major and Minor.
Cyon Chryseus, the "Golden Dog" was sent to Zeus by his mother Rhea to guard him as a infant - this may be Laelaps.
