Dogman sighting in Massachusetts

The witness went alone with a dog on snowshoes in winter to find where the creature lived. In a frozen bog he found a knoll with a dark hole and saw the thing halfway out on all fours. He threatened it, backed out without turning his back, then hiked toward the pond in a whiteout. He saw a distant black shadow seeming to follow, shouted a warning, and continued to town.

Dogman sighting in Massachusetts

The witness and a classmate were squirrel hunting from a high ledge overlooking a bog. They spotted a dark animal below that the witness thought was a small bear but looked odd.

Sasquatch sighting in Massachusetts

The witness, an HVAC apprentice, waited alone in the back of a work van at a rural house in western Massachusetts while his coworker stepped away and a boiler timer ran. He heard faint breathing and a light tap on the van, then saw a very tall dark figure hunched to peer through a 3-4 inch gap in the rear door and locked eyes with it for several seconds. The eye appeared pitch black then briefly glowed white-gray, apparently reflecting the coworker's headlamp, before a loud boiler boom startled the figure. It fled in three loud steps across gravel, grass and leaves that both men heard, left a sour wet-towel odor, and the elderly homeowner responded that local animals are friendly.
