At a gap in the circle a great dark wolf-shape could be seen halted, gazing at them. A shuddering howl broke from him, as if he were a captain summoning his pack to the assault.
The "Hound of Sauron" was the name given by Gandalf to one of the leaders of the Wargs that attacked the Fellowship in Hollin.
History
On 13 January T.A. 3019, after Gandalf confronted him, the wargs under him leapt upon the Fellowship with their leader. While the so called "Hound of Sauron" was killed, it is unclear who he was killed by as, during the attack, Aragorn stabbed “one huge leader”, while Boromir decapitated another leader, and “the heart of a great wolf-chieftain” was pierced by Legolas's last arrow, kindled by fire.[1]
