Kerberos Saga Rainy Dogs (Japanese: 犬狼伝説 紅い足痕, Hepburn: Kenrou Densetsu Akai Ashiato, lit. "Dog-Wolf Legend: The Red Footsteps") is an alternate history political thriller manga written by Mamoru Oshii and illustrated by Mamoru Sugiura, running from 2003 to 2004. Part of the Kerberos Saga, it is a sequel to Oshii's manga Kerberos Panzer Cop (for which Sugiura was in charge of managing the series' continuity) and a prequel to the 1991 film StrayDog: Kerberos Panzer Cops.

Set after the failed Kerberos Uprising by the Special Armed Garrison "Kerberos", Rainy Dogs follows former Kerberos member Koichi Todome as he pursues former Kerberos sniper Eito Kurosaki across Asia, seeking revenge for the latter's betrayal during the Uprising.

Also included in Rainy Dogs is "The Killers" (キラーズ, kirāzu), an independent short story based on Ernest Hemingway's short story of the same name and set in the Kerberos Saga universe.
