Dog returned to supreme being (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

god

'supreme being' is the definition.
(a god is a supreme being)

'dog returned' is the wordplay.
'returned' is a reversal indicator.
'dog' backwards is 'GOD'.

'to' is the link.

(Other definitions for god that I've seen before include "Pan perhaps" , "Mars or Mercury, say" , "Divinity" , "Being upstairs" , "Superhuman being" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
