They look like African wild dogs.

The gameplay loop for Hades is as follows:

Start in the hub, pet Cerberus, try to escape hell, die, repeat.

If you fail to pet Cerberus every time you walk by him, you haven't beaten the game even if your preferred platform claims you have 100% it.

It bothered me how that account just made up names for the dogs if they thought it'd get more likes. Pretty sure they renamed "ethnic-sounding" names to bland ones like "John" as well. It's quite possibly the least important thing on the planet but it still bothered me lol.

Cerberus' job is to keep living mortals out of the underworld.

Does anyone remember the "Cerber" ransomware? very nasty APT. There was a version of it that ran on many different linux distros too.

Cerberus’ job is to keep living mortals out of the underworld.

And all things considered, he kind of sucks at it.

If I recall correctly, only one of the heads likes to be pet. Don't lose a hand.

pet

What particular part of the world has a dialect where they can't get this tense correct?

Language is always evolving, and for a term as long standing as pet, with such wide use, it's no longer an incorrect use of the word. Pet as a past participle aligns with the use of similar words like bet and set, and on a cultural basis petted sounds like the way a little kid speaks.
