DOGMAN - Black Pup

A Supernatural Survival and Paranormal Mystery

Some gifts are meant to be left in the woods.

When Nate Harper finds a starving, obsidian-black puppy abandoned in a remote clearing, his first instinct is to save it. His daughter, Lily, is overjoyed, and for a moment, the family’s camping trip in the deep wilderness feels perfect. But as the sun dips below the towering redwoods, the atmosphere shifts. The air grows heavy with a musky scent, and the silence of the forest becomes deafening.

Soon, Nate begins to change.

His senses sharpen to a predatory edge. His hunger becomes an insatiable void. Every instinct screams that they are being watched by something ancient, something that has haunted the shadows of the Pacific Northwest for generations. As the line between man and beast blurs, Nate realizes the puppy wasn't a stray—it was a lure.

Now, trapped in a primal nightmare, Nate must fight to protect his family from the very monster he is becoming. In this visceral tale of transformation and survival, the Harper family will discover that in the darkest corners of the wilderness, the most dangerous thing isn't what’s hunting you—it’s what you brought home.

Great story

I love this story great modulation from the narrator. Awesome storyline only issue I had with this story was it wasn’t long enough seemed like you could’ve stretched the story out by introducing more characters more Gore encounter with his ex or encounter with her new boyfriend with the werewolf.
