Account
The witness and her mother returned home after hours away and let two dogs out at night. They heard heavy trudging through waist-high blackberry bushes and deep heavy breathing steadily approaching, with no hooves audible. The normally reactive dogs stayed silent on the porch with tails tucked and hackles up, and mother and daughter fled inside.
