Canis Major (Latin for greater dog) was the largest of Orion's hunting dogs (Laepaps).
According to ancient Greek, Canis Major ran incredibly fast, and won a race against a fox that was the fastest creature in the world. (They obviously had not seen a cheetah yet)
Because of this Zeus placed the dog in the sky to commemorate the victory.
