Perhaps Fish...Apple, Apple Tree

The Romans took Hephaestus as one of their own gods attaching the myth and cult to their god of fire and calling him Vulcan (Volcanus).

A Roman deity, possessing a priest and a festival called the Vulcanalia, which took place on 23 August. He was said to have been introduced to Rome by Titus Tatius, but there was a tradition which attributes the construction of his first shrine to Romulus, from the spoils of war taken from an enemy. During the festival of Vulcan, little fish and often other animals were sometimes thrown into the fire. These offerings were supposed to represent human lives and they were offered to Vulcan in order to preserve lives. He does not have any specific legend attached to him and has been identified with Hephaestus.

Astro the dog. Astro was his brother and slept with his wife.

Vulcan is a Roman version of Hephaestus or Hephaistos who was originally associated with a male partridge that has a limping dance to attract a mate. Vulcan and Hephaestus were both lame. Later, a rooster replaced the partridge as the animal of the god of fire and smithing.

He had a dog named Astro, I think. Everytime Vulcan would hammer and cause lightning bolts to shoot across the sky, Astro would say "Ruh roh!"

Vulture.

Since romans stole their gods from Greeks it kind of makes sense.
