Dogman sighting near Usiris, Ohio (1985)

1985–1986 night, about 9:30 PM Usiris, Ohio 1 witness

Account

As a teenager training for a 10K, the witness went for a late-night run on a rural road lined with corn and bean fields. Something in the corn paced him, stopping when he stopped and sprinting when he sprinted, staying silent except for rustling stalks. Near the end of his route he glanced back and saw a tall, dark-furred, dog-headed biped with a muscular chest and long arms emerge from the corn and look at him. He sprinted across a busy highway to a friend's house, jumped the pool fence, and hid underwater until he felt safe.
