Riding hound
The riding hound was a Cardassian animal. 

An almost five-year-old Elim Garak once attempted to ride on the back of a riding hound repeatedly on the only day he and his father Enabran Tain ever went to the country. On his deathbed, Tain recounted the event and how he was proud of his son for not giving up. ()
