The Houndsoldier is a German Shepherd Dog-type Zoid, used by the Helic Republic.
The Houndsoldier is designed for both speed and mobility; at 330 km/h, it is one of the fastest Zoids ever created. Additionally, while not as agile as some other Zoids, it is very adept at handling adverse conditions and rough terrain without too much loss of speed. The Zoid's design is very flexible and versatile, allowing it to adapt to different roles.

Unlike many other high performance Zoids, the Houndsoldier is rather well armed. The Zoid carries a pair of powerful beam cannons, as well as a quartet of missile launchers facing forward and aft. Its most unusual feature is a pair of lances that can swing forwards, locking in position to impale enemy Zoids. The Houndsoldier is equipped with a power connection port on its back, which allows it to connect modular weapons systems to its own power source, enhancing its combat capabilities.

Now that being said this is my custom model, obviously the paint job is to suit my tastes. The other noticeable change would be the boosters on it's back. Linked to the power connection port these modified CP-11 Manoeuvre Thruster put this zoid into overdrive. Capable of incredible speed boosts which turn it's basic lance charge into a devastating blow to any zoid. These boosters also allow for mid-leap dodging and increased turning on the ground, this also makes it capable of higher than average jumping ability.
