Wyrwulf
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
Wyrwulves were six legged canine animals that were in fact the children of the Codru-Ji race. When a wyrwulf reached puberty, it encased itself in a cocoon, from which emerged a Codru-Ji adult several weeks later.
[edit] Behind the scenes
The word 'wyrwulf' possibly comes from the werewolf, which, according to legend, is a Human being, which transforms to a fearsome wolf-like beast at full moon, then transforms back. The transformation of wyrwulves to Codru-Ji can be an analogue of this process, therefore the inspiration for wyrwulves could have been the werewolf.
