The Gable Film - Michigan Dogman

Anyone have the original documentary of this video?:S I can't find it anywhere:S

I do not see a dog I see a ape like animal with longer legs than a gorilla, Maybe this animal if it is a gorilla was a pet that is running around with the owners or a escaped animal from some place else ? The film was at a estate do the estate owners or living relatives know anything about what this is ? Cool video

It definately shapeshifts as it passes that little tree. I think it look like a large cat, maybe a panther? a gorilla wouldnt bound. and im pretty sure if you pause it just before it goes out of shot, you can see paws.

If this is fake it really well done!

well to me it kindof reminds me of a bear because of the colour and size of the animal. I will admit that its movements don't fit the description of a bear though and gorillas don't run that much. I doubt the dog man is that wide in size though

Looks like to me...

It is a gorilla at first.. then when it starts to charge and moves really fast.... it "morphs" into a black panther.

Certainly it looks and moves like a gorilla, but all four feet leave the ground when it changes direction. I'm not sure if this is a gorillas normal movement process.

The videos I have looked at are cool but it's impossible to get much detail out of them.

There is a lot of work on the running of animals and the movement of the spine when in motion, I'd like to do some research and see if gorillas move this way.

Also, is there any way to find the uncompressed version? Granny crap movies are the bane of this field, can't see anything.

One possibility that no one seems to have brought up is that it could have been a large cat of some kind, possibly a panther or cougar. Watch the way it runs, notice how you can see the musculature of the beast? It's very similar to the way cougars run when charging. And the jaws/teeth look very similar too. Just a theory though, thought I'd throw that up for everyone to chew on.

I just don't see a cat when I look at it. It doesn't move like a cat. Since the film I'm looking at is really poor I guess we'll never know without new images.
