Dr Jonathan Reed had been hiking for about an hour and a half when his 7-year old Golden Retriever ran ahead of him and disappeared over a rise. He began barking frantically. Dr Reed dropped his backpack and ran up the slope where the fog disappeared. He picked up a tree branch on the way, thinking that he might need it to rescue her form some kind of animal. Topping the rise he saw that Suzy (the dog) had a strange creature by the left arm. The creature was shaking violently in an attempt to dislodge the dog. The dog released the creature and backed away. At the same time the creature extended a "fleshy pseudo pod" around the dog's muzzle and severely wounded her. Suzy's tissues seemed to "flow" into this wound. She was consumed in a matter of seconds. Later, Dr Reed could find no trace of her except for a fine white powder on the ground. The creature turned to look at Reed with an expression of what seemed to be pure rage then turned its head back to look at Suzy. Reed ran forward at this point and hit the creature with the branch with all the force he could muster. He knocked the creature back about four ft. The creature lay dead on the ground covered in it's own blood. Shocked, Reed fell to the ground attempting to compose himself. Finally he remembered the camera equipment he usually carried on his frequent hikes ran back for his backpack and began taking pictures and videotape footage of the creature. A short time later, Jonathan became aware of a strange, low frequency vibration. He surveyed the area and discovered a black (craft like) device floating above the ground nearby. He approached the object and touched it. It was freezing cold and burned his hand. He took pictures of the object. After several hours, Jonathan still very sick, decided to wrap the creature in a survival blanket that he had with him. He decided to take the creature with him back to Seattle. He put the creature in a small freezer he had at home. The creature was described as about 4 ft tall that was capable of moving incredibly fast. It had large bloated eyes, which it was able to open and close, light in color. He also said that the creature emitted a horrifying scream or "shriek" as it fell to the ground. Around the fourth day Jonathan heard noises coming from within the freezer. He opened it and the creature was alive. In a panic he slammed the freezer shut, then called a friend over. Over the next few days he attempted many times to communicate with the creature and did so. He tried to feed it but it refused all food. It did, however drink water. Apparently unknown government agents broke into the house and removed the creature.
