NEIL ARNOLD WRITES: Who let the dogman out?

Hi guys,

I recorded Richard a Dogman docu a while back and came across this new link of the footage via Nick Redfern. Any ideas? It's quite creepy and the original footage I sent Rich has been cleaned up a lot here. I think it's a hoax simply because the way it's filmed, especially with the ending. Also, check out the photo on the link of the 'Bigfoot' said to be holding a small dog.

RICHARD FREEMAN WRITES: The photos look like a costume but the film looks real. At first I thought it might be a black bear, but the animal seems to have ears that are too long and floppy. It might be a big dog like a Newfoundland, or a Newfoundland crossed with a rottweiler. The only think that gives me pause (paws?) for thought is the thickness of the creature's legs - they do seem a little chunky even for a big dog. Of course, the creature does not 'change form' as it runs towards the camera. It's a very interesting film. Of course it could be a guy calling over his big dog, and getting it to jump up and mouth the camera.
