I'm 99% sure the pup in the graveyard was a Church Grim.

In older times, churches always hosted graveyards. It was thought that the first being to be buried in the graveyard would have their soul bound to the place, and become its guardian. Thus, the inaugural burial was almost always for a dog that was a good guard dog in life. They're known as Church Grims.
