Bird dog (7)

Ross

I think it could be either:

harrier

griffon

I believe this is a double definition.

'bird' is the first definition.
(griffon is a kind of bird)

'dog' is the second definition.
(griffon is a kind of dog)

(Other definitions for griffon that I've seen before include "dog? A monster" , "breed of dog" , "Bird" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail and The Telegraph.
