It wasn't a god. It was the Titan Atlas.
.
After Heracles liberated the titan Prometheus, he helped him by telling him not to take the apples himself, but to seek the help of Atlas, his brother.
Atlas carried the heavens in his back, Heracles took the place of Atlas, and Atlas got the apples but didnt want to carry the heavy burden any more. Heracles tricked him to take his original place again and got the apples.
He isn't a god, Prometheus is a titan, after being freed, Prometheus told Heracles not to pick the apples, but to get Atlas to get them, by tricking him.
Hercules (known as Heracles in the Greek) One of the twelve labors of Hercules was to get the golden apples which grow in Hera's garden. The apples were guarded by the daughters of Atlas. In order to receive the apples Hercules took the world from Atlas' shoulders. Atlas got the apples for Hercules, however he had no intention of taking back the world from his shoulders. Hercules tricked him into taking it back and then left with the apples.

He was said to live in the country of the Hesperides, his daughters, but he was soon trapped by Hercules, to forever hold the heavens, stopping them from meeting the earth.
I do not know if there is a special animal attributed to Atlas but he was famed for his flocks and herds and his garden of golden apples guarded by Hesperides.
Yes, Hercules, the Greek hero, successfully completed the Twelve Labors, which were a series of seemingly impossible tasks assigned to him as penance. These labors included slaying the Nemean Lion, capturing the Golden Hind of Artemis, and retrieving the Apples of the Hesperides, among others. After completing all the tasks, Hercules was ultimately granted immortality and ascended to Mount Olympus, where he was celebrated as a god. Thus, he not only survived the labors but also achieved a divine status.
Hercules was on a quest to be free from a king but the king tried tricking him into doing what will be known as Hercules 12 labors. one was get a golden apple from the gods tree but it was protected by a monster no mortal could defeat so Hercules had to trick atlas into getting it by holding the sky. when atlas returned he decided Hercules could hold the sky for a while longer while he delieverd the apples to the king and he take a break for a few years. Hercules agreed but asked atlas to hold it so he could adjust his lion coat for comfort and atlas agreed. when atlas took it Hercules left with the apples

He was not a god
He wasn't a god, but a demi-god (= half god), because he was the son of a god and a mortal. Hercules was a demigod because his father was Zeus. Zeus is god of Olympus or powerful. But his mother is mortal. He became a god when he died and Zeus turned him into a god. He was born a demigod.
