Beware the Claw! (Hound Heroes #1): Volume 1

Product Information

The truth of the Raid on Saltpans is that Sandor's helmet was found by the remnants of the Brave Companions mercenary company, and was donned by Rorge, leading people to believe that Sandor was still alive and had turned into a vagabond. Rorge is believed to be the Hound, and, as a result, Sandor is blamed for the brutal Raid on Saltpans. Arya had arrived at Saltpans only to find that most of the village has been destroyed by Rorge's band, most of the man killed, and the women and children raped and mutilated by Biter. Ser Walder Rivers sees the aftermath of the massacre and reports the situation to the rest of the realm.

The Hound was one of the most renowned fighters in the Seven Kingdoms of his time. He was known for his large size, great strength and skill with the sword. According to Jaime Lannister, Sandor was deceptively fast, much more so than a man of his size should have been. The Hound was an extremely skilled warrior, and was the only man alive truly brave enough to stand up to his older brother, the Mountain. That said, Sandor was also one of the few people who could match the Mountain for strength and skill, shown during a significantly brutal duel between the two. However, in this duel, it is unclear who was better than who, as the Hound was not trying to kill his brother, despite the fact that he had every single reason to do so. However, when the Hound fought to kill, he was almost unstoppable, able to combat with around three opponents at once and defeat Beric Dondarrion. In the television series he could fight on reasonably even footing with Brienne of Tarth, who's more stronger than she is in the original novel series. Can the Hound Heroes use their telepathy and individual skills to work together and overthrow the Claw? Could their gifts be used for good?

Before fleeing, he confronts Sansa in her chambers, drunkenly asking her to come with him. After she refuses, he settles for a song elicited at knifepoint, and steals a kiss from her before leaving, riding his horse Stranger. He leaves his Kingsguard cloak in Sansa's room and hopes that Tyrion will die in the battle.

His fate is unknown in the books after Arya left him to die, but a large gravedigger with a limp appears in the monastic community of the septry (a monastery) of the Quiet Isle, hinting he is likely still alive. The Quiet Isle's Elder Brother confirmed he found the dying Sandor and treated him, but always cares to mention that "the Hound is dead", and only uses the name "Sandor Clegane" to mention he is resting. The gravedigger has the same height as Sandor, and he is also seen tending to Sandor's warhorse Stranger (renamed Driftwood to avoid blasphemy), who is also now residing in the septry. It was noted many times throughout the story, how not a single person other than Sandor himself, has ever been able to tame, let alone ride, the short-tempered and fierce horse, yet the animal seems familiar and accepting of the gravedigger. The Elder Brother also stated that the gravedigger has to dig an empty grave for every person killed by the Hound. Hounds for Heroes provide food and equipment for each puppy and cover the cost of veterinary bills and pet insurance. The two head towards the Vale of Arryn, and they stop in a village in the Mountains of the Moon, for a short time. They work there, until they are forced to leave since the inhabitants are feeling uncomfortable with their presence. Sandor decided to change course and find another of her relatives to ransom her to, first choosing to bring her to her aunt, Lysa Arryn, at the Eyrie. Have regular access to a car to attend any of the following; classes, the local town or for vet visits.

Hounds for Heroes was founded by Allen Parton so that injured personnel from the military and the ‘blue-light’ services have the opportunity to benefit from the life-transforming experience he had through partnering with an assistance dog. As a Royal Navy veteran himself, Allen (and the Charity), believes “We owe them a great debt and this is our way of saying thank you”. Have an appropriate home environment that can accommodate the physical and welfare needs of an assistance dog Tod is a slender red fox kit with a white underbelly, long bushy tail, and muzzle. He also has a brown collar until he arrived at the game preserve in the forest. In the novels Sandor's facial scars are more hideous and a piece of bone is even visible. Like in the show, Sandor puts some of his hair to cover what he can. According to the novels, Sandor's left ear was completely burned by his brother and nothing of it has been left. In TV version Sandor had both ears until Brienne bites off his burned ear during their fight, which is what actually happens to Vargo Hoat in the books, when he tries to rape Brienne at Harrenhal. My brother gave me this. Pressed me to the fire like I was a nice juicy mutton chop. Thought I stole one of his toys. I didn't steal it. I was just playing with it. The pain was bad. The smell was worse. But the worst thing was that it was my brother who did it. My father, who protected him told everyone my bedding caught fire. You think you're on your own?
