It is an unusual monster that is a hybrid between a crocodile and a dog.
Characteristics
Crocodogs are bizarre and powerful monsters that float about as if swimming through midair. As their name implies, they are a cross between crocodiles and dogs, as well as having some draconic features. They have reddish-brown scales, pale yellow undersides, and have a shaggy purple mane around their necks that runs down their backs. Their canine features consist of the noses at the end of their long snouts and their legs. The Crocodogs make use of their immense size by slamming their entire bodies down on their opponents. Like its cousins, the Crocodog was reclassified as a Dragon when it returned to both X and Joker 3.

Dragon Quest X
Crocodog began appearing in Version 5.1 of the game, this time being made monsters of the Dragon family. Once again, they are capable of unleashing a powerful bellyflop attack and wasting their turns by grinning maliciously, as well as being able to swing their tails around at surrounding enemies.
Dragon Quest Tact
Crocodog appears as an A-rank monster of the Dragon family as part of the limited True Dragon Quest X event alongside Daviyaga the Dark Deity on his banner. It can participate in Estelle's Battle Road as a party member. Additonally, before the limited True Dragon Quest X event happened, during the story of the 1-Year Wrap Party post-anniversary event a Heligator told Majellan to save his "Crocodog tears" for someone else when the party went through the territory of the Heligators.
