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.
The constellation Leo contains the fastest animal, which is the star Regulus. Regulus is located in the heart of the lion and is considered to be one of the brightest stars in the night sky.
