He will stay like that until either... the person leaves or I tell him it is ok, if the person keeps coming closer, you'll hear a warning growl, keep coming, then he will bark, growl and snarl... once people see his teeth they always back off. No, nobody has been stupid enough to push him further, and yes, he will attack if pushed passed that point. He's fine if other kids approach or, we are on a walk or playing at the park. However, he is still extremely vigilant. Took 18 months of specialized training with ongoing refreshers 😊

Or it may be demon possessed. I knew one very, very well. He was such a beautiful man...with such a horrifying demon inside him that would pop out or take him over. Once I was at a daytime party at the ex's longtime girlfriend off and on. I was so embarrassed for him as he was running around everywhere among our friends and party goers on all fours, then I saw that his legs were bent backwards as a dogs might be. It was the demon visible, but I guess I was the only one that could see it. I told him to stop he was making a fool of himself and he just laughed horribly at me and kept running. I was disgusted and wanted to leave, but was with friends and had no way to leave. He later shyly came up to me and apologized. I told him to leave me alone. It had been a long time since I broke it off with him. It took a long time to get him to stop talking over my radios or banging on the walls when I was home alone. I would simply call out to Jesus and sit huddled up with my Bible. Never take someone or anything else for granted as being what they seem. True story, not made up.

Everyone saying they want a SW of their own I think it's more about them finding you, however becareful what you wish for as their not all like her. Their not all going to transform and scar away would be attackers. I noticed in other SW stories they would mimic human speach however she remained in her dog form she never mimiced human or other animal speach even though she is inteligent enough to do so she chose to remain as her dog self meaning she isnt like other SW maybe she wont leave him to go back to the woods. She has warmth, food and someone who knows what she is but isnt scared of her and can live happily with a creature which could take down a bear without breaking a sweat.

I grew up in Ohio. I can tell you the woods of Ohio might look just like the woods everywhere else but parts of the woods are not, there's something different out there. Something just wrong, you can feel it.

[@itsjustme7487]

Is that the part of Ohio that used to be West Virginia? If so, I have a theory about that.

[@TENZEN._.]

Let’s hear the theory. 👍

@@itsjustme7487 What's your Theory?

[@s3audi2009]

Woods I'm referring to are east of Cincinnati. As kids we always heard rumors about Satan worship. We would find odd stuff spray painted in most of the little caves we found, but we assumed it was older stupid teens. We would basically live outside during the summer but we were always always always out of the woods before dark. I could ignore the feeling if I was out there with friends but when out there alone if would not just feel like you were being watched but as if someone was standing 2 feet behind you.

@desiirwin7714 ... I'll let you fill in the blanks It has to do with Big Foot and maybe dog men having a truce with Native Americans before the latter were "relocated" to make room for settlers. The BF AND DM are now free to spread wherever they want to.

I'm an animal lover through and through. Love this story, my favorite line was 'I adopted her,' was such a bright sunshine moment. I think the story teller made the right decision, Lucy liked him from the start,, and they made a wonderful pair. I wouldn't mind have a Lucy myself! But, so far I'm very happy with my sweet Samantha (Norwegian Forest cat, and a little skinwalker in her own ways).

I love me some lighthouse horror stories!

[@creepypastaarchiver3088]

i love how you do the live narrations… i like the imagery to help with imagining this story in real time

[@mornin6079]

I demand a part 2 of this it’s so cute

[@MechanicalMercenary]

Yass!

[@roberttanguay8532]

This was a great story. Now, just imagine not only having Lucy but also the Chihuahua from the other story? (sorry, I can't remember the Chihuahuas' name) 2 dogs that freak all other dogs out, 2 dogs that will just stare at you and, 2 dogs that will turn anyone who threatens you into kibble 😂

[@Brentesp]

This reminds me of the other dog story you narrated with Bambi the eldritch chihuahua. Good stuff Lighthouse!

[@HudsonPomeranian]

Very cute story! I had a feeling that guy would adopt Lucy. Definitely keep anyone safe! I want one!!! I think Lucy is happy for now! If she wanted to leave and never come back that's her prerogative, and yet she would be dearly missed. I loved this one.

[@rosemaryorlando3110]

Awesome!!! This is going to be good! ❤️❤️❤️

[@cyndavis691]

Thankyou for being a real man and adopting her. I have rescue dogs and service animals... My last one was a Mastic full blooded artisan pit bull...

[@coastalcoyote]

I would have adopted that strange dog the moment she licked my hand for treats. She wasn't interacting with ANYONE until that moment really.

[@robertabray-enhus3198]

The moving illustrations or painting are cool!

[@truthylucy7068]

Lucy sounds like the perfect watch dog! 😊

[@evelynberrios8164]

Thank you. Lucy chose her human. He understands her and let’s her be. 🥰
