Frau Gode

 

Frau Gode is a North German goddess, she is often referred to as a "Dog Goddess" due to her symbolism and most notable story. Where a Euhemerized version of her appears with her daughters and a love for the Hunt, she then proclaimed that hunting was better than heaven, and when she did so again she and her daughters were cursed. With her myriad of daughters (over 20) turning into bitches, growing fur, muzzles, and paws. They then flew off with her as they lifted their mother and themselves into the air, some of the daughters even ended up tied to her chariot carrying it up into the sky as part of the Wild Hunt. Frau Gode was often said to "Curse" people by sending the dog spirits into the home of people where they would have to perform certain traditions to "get rid of" the dog. This was likely a ruse to allow themselves to continue pagan customs under the guise of removing a demonic curse.
