Actually... there was a misscaraige in my home around this time.. I cant be certain exactly because it was so long ago but perhaps it was that.

And this... black shuck

Says it is a cryptid... omg I would never know about cryptid except for this website. I never heard the term before. Guess I posted in the right forum.

I also used to see very small and rapidly moving shadow cats.. some would be white and some would be black. I saw these very frequently.. I wonder if these are documented cryptids too? Let me know anyone out there if you know about them or have seen them. Thanks for your help guys.

did you know it is a fact that people experience the paranormal and then make up stories about how they didnt see what they actually saw?

I don't think this is a fact. For it to be a fact there would have to absolute proof of the paranormal to begin with...there isn't. If there is no proof a rational person would desensationalise and look for a mundane day to day explanation rather than saying it is definitely a ghost or whatever because it almost definitely is not. If you want people to tell you it's black shuck or whatever then say so. But we're not all just going to agree with that assessment because it is highly unlikely. Too many rational minds here for it to be that easy I'm afraid.

There is absolute proof... a lot of it too.

I think at this point we should agree to disagree. I don't have the time to get into another 'what constitutes proof' discussion. I hope you find whatever answer your looking for.

It is possible, even people who don't believe in the Paranormal will confess it is possible that somewhere you heard something about the black dog and then subcontiously made yourself see it after the traumatizing event. There is little chance you can make them believe you saw it Before.... Or that it was real....

Being a Christian, I do believe in prophetic incidents... visions, words, sounds.... and this could easily fall into such a catagory.

Yeah I believe if you see it then youve seen it. All this subconcious thought stuff I think is just those who never experienced it or lie to themselves so they dont have to face what theyve seen... my brother saw an army of dead soldiers walking down the street but says it is just chemicals in his head that made him see it. I dont agree. I saw the ghost of someone I knew the morning after they died (she appeared solid) before I even knew she was dead... I know my subconcious mind couldn't do that... so looking at the larger picture I have to believe what I saw was real AND others have seen the same thing..   thanks for your reply, I believe in these things too.

Who's to say it wasn't  a Rottweiler that was given growth hormones.

I once thought I saw an enourmous dog in my backyard, when I called to my mother to come look & we both peeked out the window, it was totally a black bear. Had it not been for the second glance, I believe up until this day I would swear up & down it was some kind of canine, very valid point you have there. Not to discredit any possibilities, just saying.

Three years ago I had a bear walk through my yard at roughly 2 am, I was stone cold sober just getting home from work and pulled into the drive and there is a big black something standing in the drive. then it looked at me. and it was a black bear. I live in north seattle and the same week i saw the bear there was one spotted in ballard and another spotted in shoreline. I am NOT saying that is what you saw, black bears do not stand ten feet tall even when standing on their back legs ( more like seven to eight feet) , but yes we do see bears in the Seattle city limits from time to time. all the various bear sightings During That week were on TV news constantly ( During the proper seasons I Hunt Black Bears, so yes i know what they look like.) Back when i was a kid 35 to 40 years ago i would see some big canines wandering the streets in the early morning hours when i delivered papers Here in Seattle. there was this one ( sort of friendly) rottweiler  who would walk up to me every morning  sniff me then walk away. granted i was not quite 5' tall at the time but it could look me in the eyes.   once i started bringing dog treats  It accepted them without harming me. it never made a sound and i never figured out where it lived.

Cool story but this was in S. Seattle and wasnt a bear. My grandma had a bear break in her house and raid her refridgerator but she lived in the mountains.. little off topic but thats alright I guess. Ill probably repost the cat stuff later and see if I get any replies or insights. I already found out about the dog... cool to find out ppl experienced the same.. learned something new cant complain about that.


Peace all

They have four legs, but can stand on their hind legs. Some species seem to have learnt how to walk on two legs as well, a.k.a "big hairy man type cryptid"
