Dogman Encounters October 5,2016 in Nebraska.
First hand account.
My brother and I were waiting for our bus, at our usual corner stop. It’s about 3 blocks away from our house and there’s a pretty densely wooded creek nearly 1-2 blocks behind our bus stop. The first thing I noticed that was off was that my brother was standing completely rigid, staring intently down the long road (there are only two street lights and a few automatic porch lights down there). I shook him a little bit and asked what he was looking at. He shushed me almost immediately. Then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a large, black shape darting on 2 legs across the street, to the line of houses on the other side, before disappearing. Thankfully, our bus arrived soon afterward, so we got out of there...

Encounter number two
New York, October 2000 -
First hand account.
It was later in the evening, when i was driving back to my in-laws house, by myself and was going down a dirt road. I saw something in the ditch up ahead and on the right and didn't really know what it was, until I got up far enough so that my head lights could catch it. I didn't know anything about Dogmen, until a couple of years ago. This thing had an outline of a huge dog, but when I got closer, it turned and looked at me. I just floored it. It didn't really bother me, until I noticed it looking at me and I saw that it was actually grasping what it was eating. I got back and didn't say exactly what I saw. I just asked them if there were any big dogs or wolves up where they lived. My father in-law just laughed and said, "No." Then he asked why. I didn't say anything. The thing I will NEVER forget are the reddish, orange eyes, that just kept staring at me!
Encounter number three.
Lehigh Acres, Florida.
First hand account
"I had my doubts of what it couldve been. Thought it was a bear at first glance. but the aggressive behaviors, and foot prints dont lie. All of the evidence ive found points at dogman.
so the 1st night this all started was a few months ago. I was woke up one morning by something tapping on the window to my bedroom, sounded like a fingernail on the glass. Light tapping, but enough to wake me. I woke up, made some coffee, and grabbed a glass of water and went outside. i sat down and had a smoke, and heard some odd noises. weird like clicking sound, not cicadas or grasshoppers, im use to those. then about 5 minutes later a growling sound. very deep but short. This was around 3am.
coffee was done about 20 minutes later, so i grabbed a cup and went back outside to my porch, i took my first sip and i heard this blood curdling scream about 150ft behind my porch, maybe the next block over.
I finished my coffee and im walking inside, just as i open my glass slider, something attacks my porch door, beat the hell out of it for almost 5 minutes straight. scared the hell out of me. i rushed inside, got another cup of coffee, and waited about 20 minutes looking out the kitchen window to see if anything was there. being that my back yard is completely dark, im not sure what i expected, but i gave up waiting and went back outside. i sit down, and im drinking my coffee and i hear what sounds like my neighbors new aluminum fence getting the crap beat out of it. im looking on my side and nothing, my guess is, it went to the other side of his property, to beat the hell out of the panels. it stopped quickly. and that was that. no noise for the rest of morning.
fast forward 2 months, thanksgiving 2020.
im woken again at 3am, same nails on the window event. my dogs havent barked either time, so im suspiscious. make my way outside, coffee ready, iphone up incase there is something there, and nothing. Im talking on the phone with my trucker buddies about what happened before thanksgiving and they dont have a clue. mind you, we all grew up in these woods, well before the internet was invented. so we naturally played in the woods. about 2 hours goes by, and the sun is up enough that i can kinda make out this shape in the woods behind my house. its about 5'5 and just standing in this position for a good 45 minutes. i managed to get a picture of it, but its poor quality. the rest of the day, and that night, will live with me forever. not 2 hours later, i heard this tree branch snap off and something crash to the ground, something heavy. no mistaking that sound for a tree falling over. turns out, a tree on the edge of my neighbors property, about 25 feet up, a large branch about 5 inches diameter is just twisted off and snapped like a twig. its still hanging there. it doesnt even touch the ground but its about 12 feet long. I did have a look in the woods for abit to see if i could find anything, its its mostly 1 obvious human trail that is used often, 2-3 small animal trails, and a really crappy make shift trail with broken trees littering the outline of the sides of the trail. quite abit of big stuff to climb over, logs piled like ive seen and heard about odd like teepee shape, and several grass beds throughout the woods. 1 was recent. the others didnt look too comfortable. so i get done exploring and go inside for a drink and go out to my garage where i can work on stuff ive been doing for awhile. We recently moved to this house, so stuff isnt quite unpacked yet. As im going through the boxes and stuff i hear this loud ruckus coming from the small .25 acre plot across the street from me. something big is moving the palmetto bushes, and there was a large dead tree knocked down before, but something cracked it open and was eating the grubs, i assume. the sound quickly went away. i heard whatever it was, run north towards the canal which is super close. maybe 90ft from my driveway. fast forward to 10pm, im still in my garage, but the door is closed this time. i accidentally banged on the garage door, and i heard something on the other side bang back, me thinking its my kids being the teenagers they are, i bang again, i heard this really loud growl. i run out of my garage and through the house to the outside part, the trash cans are open, and my thanksgiving turkey carcass, which was in a box, had been taken. but the rancid smell stayed. i followed the smell to my backyard and called a buddy whos seen stuff in the woods, and he tells me to be calm, and move slow."
I turn off my porch light, and im sitting out there smoking a cigarette, i hear my bushes on the corner of the house being brushed loudly, i turn around and i heard something large trample the grass down the side of my yard. the neighbors dog is going crazy barking at it. so im not stupid enough to chase it into the street, wheres it gonna go? i stayed on my porch and waited. this big 6ft+ blackish thing runs by from the other side of my house and runs behind my neighbors house. His security lights kicked on, and it ducked behind their above ground pool. its crouched over and i can see it. twice the width of me, easily 400-500lbs.
the following day i found a foot/paw print in a abandoned ant hill in my yard that i had exterminated weeks prior. the morning dew ruined the foot print the next morning, but i have a picture for size comparison.
What makes me think its a dogman? we have a marsh close by thats about 20x20 square miles in size with no trails or roads in or out. there is a waterway within 100 feet of my house that is 12-15ft deep. i grow alot of my own vegetables and fruits, and some have come up missing. As far as the woods behind my house go, there are several trails, some are obviously human as they are used frequently by neighbors, however there are small animal trails which are obvious, and then there are the trails that dont make any sense. they zigzag through bramble vine areas, they are hard to navigate, the trees surrounding the trails are all mostly broken off or leaning like a bigfoot would do. i havent found any structures yet or any markers, no bones. I have recieved a "gift" a pile of leaves on my doorstep one morning. the leaves are from plants in my backyard and have no possible way of magically appearing there.
