According to Transformers: More than Meets the Eye (Dreamwave Productions), Sinnertwin (G1) turns into a two-headed dragon, and canon trumps all, yes? Also, Wikipedia says "Orthrus (Orthros) or Orthus (Orthos) (Greek: Ὄρθρος; Ὄρθος) was a two-headed dog"; Sinnertwin has horns, which most dogs do not. (Most dogs don't have two heads, either, but Wikipedia doesn't say anything about horns being another distinguishing feature of Orthrus's anatomy.)
