I figured. But I don't get to use my trivia knowledge as much as I'm used to. If I don't tell someone some piece of random knowledge at least once a day, I explode.

Fluffy isn't original. He's based off of Greek mythology. Cerberus, I believe. He guarded the gates of Hades and either had 3 heads (along with a serpent's tail, which was poisonous) or 50 heads (3 was much more common, I think only one Greek tale described him as having 50 heads). He was, of course, defeated by Hercules (Heracles).
Cerberus had 3 heads and was probably the ancestor of Fluffy and I think the reason Herc defeated him because Herc wasn't a postman.

most posties do not know how to deal with dogs, indeed out of fear may do the wrong thing. (like run away...easy to get rid of postie and dog in one fell swoop.)
I have done delivery work and never had any trouble with dogs. (been bitten by many an owner, though)
Herc knew his myth; he knew Cerberus was there to keep spirits IN, he was also fond of buns.
(So far I have failed to comment on unorginiality of HP...)
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
