The name of the three headed dog from Greek mythology was Cerberus. Cerberus was employed to Hades the god of the underworld. His job was to guard the death portal into Tartarus. To make sure that none of the living could enter and that none of the dead could leave. The only two people that ever accomplished getting past the beast (according to mythology) were Heracles (Hercules is the Roman name) and Odysseus. BTW, its dog not god...
