No worries, thanks to the wonders of the internet, I found these :

and this :
Beth Gelert or "the Grave of the Greyhound." A ballad by the Hon. William
Robert Spencer. The tale is that one day Llewellyn returned from hunting,
when his favourite hound, covered with gore, ran to meet him. The chieftain
ran to see if anything had happened to his infant son, found the cradle
overturned, and all around was sprinkled with gore and blood. Thinking the
hound had eaten the child, he stabbed it to the heart. Afterwards he found
the babe quite safe, and a huge wolf under the bed, quite dead. Gêlert had
killed the wolf and saved the child.
I seem to remember this story from Primary School - far too many years ago
