Witness Describes Chilling Encounter with Mysterious Dog-Like Creature in Local Woods

A witness, Fred, claims to have seen a large, dog-like creature with dark gray fur and abnormal eyes outside his window in the middle of the night. The creature reportedly had a longer muzzle than a domestic dog and its teeth were visible with its top lip overhanging them. Its eyes were described as being higher and more forward-facing than a standard canine's. Fred, who has experience working with animals, felt that the creature's eyes were difficult to look at and made him look away. The encounter has left Fred shaken and he has requested privacy. The witness's caretaker, Steve, has been researching the area for many years and has noticed signs of a local creature.
