Is that dog powered?

I thought it was a trick photo but there are 4 legs coming out from under the rear body...

There are indeed four legs, and it is (was) a dog!
The point is yours, but can you hazard a guess at what it might have been called?

Not a clue but a quick google search has found several other dog powered vehicles!

Probably a punning name - but it would depend on which country it came from.

It was more of a classically-based name than a pun I think.
Omnia was a French magazine FWIW

Dog with a classically based name?   ???

Seriously, could it be Cerberus?

I have no idea what the dog was called, but there were suggestions for the "vehicle"
