You have begun the description of a Greek Sphinx. The full description is head and chest of a woman, the body of a dog, the tail of a serpent, the wings of a bird and the paws of a lion.

It was either another strange creature in mythology distantley realted to the sphinx or I think it was just a carving to symbolize the importance of the dog and its contribution to society.

The only thing that comes to mind is a sphinx, possibly an andro-sphinx or gyno-sphinx.
