Best Answer

Fortinbras is the Murry's dog that they found on their doorstep on a winter night as a half-grown puppy who was scrawny and abandoned. Mr. Murry (or Meg's father) had decided that Fortinbras was part Llewellyn setter and part greyhound. (see ch.1, pg. 8, paragraph 3 [in book published by Yearling w/ blue & purple cover])
