In the Faust legend, Mephistopheles appears to the Doktor in the form of a black poodle. Of course, he was just A devil rather than THE devil, but if we assume that the powers inherent in the Lesser Infernals are also at the disposal of the Greater, then Lucifer/Satan might manifest to human (or canine) eyes in whatever form he might wish. “The Devil hath pow’r to assume many a pleasing shape.” UN-pleasing shapes, too, presumably.
Of course, if Truefellow believed he were on the track of another dog, this whole story might have taken a decidedly different turn…

The Devil’s been nowhere NEAR the water; he’s still relaxin’ by the fire, as seen yesterday. This is all part of the cat’s plan…
Maybe Truefellow will find himself caught between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea…

Maybe the hound should give him the Reader’s Digest condensed version.
