Dragons, Dogs & Amadillos?

[Bluetoes101]

I think the odds of no one finding exact matches to anything (although the caveat of we don't have many of all the manuscripts ever made) probably points to them not copying directly, at least from well known source material. If it was some professional outfit pumping out manuscripts I can only imagine asking them to produce something that was not using the material they had used previously would get a very expensive reply.  

On the creature. This is obviously not the same thing, but look where the wool goes up to on the face it continues from the ear line to near the chin (its a bit faint, but you can see the loops if you look close). Where it stops at the back leg. The wispy tail. How the back woolly leg goes into the body (upper part). The hooves look like 3 bumps in places. I have better examples for this where a lamb with horns has front hooves and back "paws", it seems quite common. In fact you could remove the lambs horns and it would be a dog with weird front paws.  

With all that being said, I still have no idea what it is  , just that a not very well drawn sheep like thing, doesn't seem too crazy.
