Qiqirn

In Inuit mythology, Qiqirn is a large, bald dog spirit. It is a frightening beast, but also skittish and foolish. Men and dogs run from it, and it runs from men and dogs. It has hair on its feet, ear, mouth and the tip of its tail. When people approach it, they suffer fits. One way to scare it away is to shout its name.

[Native American] In Eskimo belief, Qiqirn is a spirit who appears in the shape of a huge, hairless dog. It is greatly feared, and its proximity to men or dogs causes them to have fits. But it is also a foolish creature, terrified of human beings, and runs away the minute it is mentioned. Qiqirn is described as having only hair on its mouth, feet, ears, and tail-tip.
