The "Haymarsh Dogman" Photograph

Back in 1961 a night watchman in Big Rapids, Michigan snapped this photograph of a supposed Dogman at 3:00 am in the morning. The picture has never been explained and it looks very interesting. The only thing about the picture that makes me wonder is a board of some sort under the feet. If you look carefully you and see the board on top of the grass. Is this a manikin or stage prop or the real deal?

Is this a board supporting a stage prop/manikin?

Dogman Sketches Based on Shelley Rockewell-Martin Descriptions


On September 18th, 2013 Shelley Rockwell-Martin watched my video "Dogman Monsters Are Real". After viewing the video she made the following comments:


  • Shelley Rockwell-Martin Wow! I just watched Scott's encounter again........that's the closest to what we saw that I've seen yet....all but ear placement on the head.




  • Shelley Rockwell-Martin Ears ran up the sides of the head, like cupping your own ears, and went beyond top of head, on sides, 3 to 4 inches higher than top of head. I will never, ever forget, unfortunately.

Based off her description of the ears I modified the previous sketches I had drawn based on the creature in my videos to match her description. I will share these will Ms. Martin and see what she thinks of the accuracy or hopefully she will tell me where I need to make changes.

This first photo is an actual still capture from the video Dogman Monsters Are Real  and a sketch I made from the still capture:


The following sketches are based on Ms. Martin's description of the ears being on the side of the head.

Shelley Rockwell-Martin Collaborates My Encounter with the Dogman

Sketch Based on Actual Still Capture
Shelley Rockwell-Martin and her family were featured in Linda Godfrey's Book "Real Wolfmen: True Encounters in Modern America"  and the recently on an episode of Paranormal Witness. Her family had a harrowing experience with a group of large Dogmen like creatures that terrorized her family. In a recent blog post that featured my Blog and the video The Dogman Monsters Are Real Ms. Martin said the following:

Wow! I just watched Scott's encounter again........that's the closest to what we saw that I've seen yet....all but ear placement on the head.

Remember her encounters happen in Maine and mine in Tennessee. I appreciate Shelley taking the time to watch my video and giving feed back on the creature.


Below is the conversation from the FaceBook Group - Dogman Mystery


  • Shelley Rockwell-Martin Robert, someone asked how tall, approximately they are.....the answer is seven feet. We were able to correctly measure the height when one was hiding around the corner of the barn/garage and when "it" stepped forward, it triggered the motion sensor floodlight and it stood literally right next to the ten foot high roll-up door; before it ran to the others.
  • Robert F Shaw Thanks also for this info,as this is even more appreciated!!
    This would also correlate with Scott's estimates on size,,as in exactly!!
    Have you seen Scott's video footage of the dogmen he encountered? All his encounters were extremely close proxim
    ity,and the one approached him from behind,and got within a few feet of him and he was never aware of it,and would've had no idea about its presence,if it wasn't for his video cam attached to this backpack filming behind him.
  • Shelley Rockwell-Martin Wow! I just watched Scott's encounter again........that's the closest to what we saw that I've seen yet....all but ear placement on the head.
  • Shelley Rockwell-Martin Ears ran up the sides of the head, like cupping your own ears, and went beyond top of head, on sides, 3 to 4 inches higher than top of head. I will never, ever forget, unfortunately.
  • Robert F Shaw Wow! I read about you and your family's terrifying encounter in Linda Godfrey's beyond outstanding book " Real Wolfmen". Out of all the drawings and sketches within,the one Linda drew,regarding the witness seeing a dogman on the side of the road clutching roadkill in its paws,and you and your husbands drawings of the creatures both stuck with me the most. And,as the facial features resemble many documented encounters,ESP what Linda has documented so thoroughly.
    I wanted to also say Thank You to you,and your family,for reporting this unnerving and truly scary encounter. If more people would make that leap,and have the courage,as you and your family obviously has,to report their encounters and sightings as soon as possible,we would definitely have a better grasp of the situation at hand. We are extremely lucky,as anyone can honestly see right away,in having SO many outstanding,dedicated,and extremely knowledgable folks that have decided to investigate this Erie phenomenon,and try whole heartedly to provide answers,and most importantly a little bit of comfort,in knowing there is other reports of these beings.
    Here are the actual still captures from the video:

Cynocephalus - The Dog-Headed Men

Most people have heard of werewolves, but few know of the ancient race of dog-headed men, better known as the Cynocephali. A Cynocephalus was essentially a man with the head of a dog. They could understand language but had no ability to speak. Though they are sometimes depicted in artwork as being civilized, they were by all reports savage beasts who lived to hunt and to kill.
While this may sound like just another mythical creature, there are very good reasons to believe that the Cynocephali may have actually existed. Above all of them, these dog-headed men were described in reports by famous explorers such as Christopher Columbus and Marco Polo!
