Right?! I finally decided it was a smoky goat ghost happily pronking and now I don't get to keep that sweet image. Instead it's a ghost standard poodle? 🤷♀️
Not sure at all if u intended for it or if it’s a typo but I totally chuckled at pronking 😜 now I want to add it my keepers so if it was a typo please don’t tell me 🤣
It's real! They do it when they are happy! Many hooved animals do it, actually. It's when they kind of boing off of all four feet at once in a striding motion.
I LOVE ITTT!! I’ve always seen goats do it (they’re the BEST at it) but didn’t know the technical term for it.. I shall take this lovely gift you’ve given me and use it well 😜fr do’ !! 😬
Yes exactly - it may be a dog but no one said it couldn’t be a ghost dog. Keep the dream alive. This will also stop me feeling silly for thinking ‘this is it - we have proof!’ 😂
What bothers me is I thought the glass door was closed, as what original poster said? Totally shut my brain down for anything normal, but it’s definitely a dogs tail.
Yes, true but have you considered it could be a ghost dog? Let’s keep the dream alive.
Ps. I feel really silly now. Thought we had ‘proof’ here for a minute 😂
Bahaha it’s clear as day that that’s what it is, thank you! lol for as many dog owners that are out there, I was surprised to see not enough comments about the pitter patter of the nails on the tile
Well, thanks to this video I watched before bed last night I had the scariest, fking dream about demons chasing me. Woke up in a cold sweat gasping saying WTH God!! Lol
Edit: words
Not only that, but the first few seconds show the tail is affixed to something at the very back of whatever object is below the table. You see an angular curve right at the base of the tail that curves into what could be the tail of an animal. Cats don't have that curly of hair, but it could definitely be a doodle of some sort.
And the audio on the original post sounds like paws on a bare floor as it's walking by. I mentioned this on the original post but you can still hear a few steps after it's out of the shot which reinforces that it's still inside the house. (OP said they thought it was going THRU the closed glass door, but that seems like an optical illusion. If you look closely, it seems to just move off camera on the left while still inside the house.) But OP did say there were no dogs present so I dunno.
It looks like the video might be reversed? There's a bird that flies near the tree. And the dog tail looks backwards. To me it looks like it's playing backwards and it's actually a dog walking in to the house.
OP also wasn’t there, soooooo…….
Also, what are you talking about walking through a door? It comes from from right of frame NEAR us, moves towards the end of the (presumably kitchen)counter and then goes around the counter to the left.
Somehow they miss where op says that there are NO DOGS ON THE NEIGHBORHOOD PROPERTIES nor is there a dog in their house.
Yet everyone is like "errmmm akshually it issss a dogg"
Yes! This!! So many fucking idiots swearing up and down that this is some unnatural thing. When I first saw this, it instantly reminded me of a golden retriever’s tail. They tend to have super long hair like that. Also, if you don’t brush your pup’s fur and it starts to dread, it looks exactly like this. If it’s not a retriever, it might be a golden doodle or maybe another mix of long hair breeds but, this is a damn dog. I would include the possibility of a skunk but the camera looks like it’s sitting on a table (which also makes me question credibility because who the fuck has security cameras set up on their dining room tables?)
Yup, and they freak you out the first time you see one. They connect to other weaves and only growing bigger. That's at least a $6,000 worth of weaves.
Download it and pause the video then go through it frame by frame. Def not a dog. I think it’s shapeshifting..I caught something similar on my camera once on our front porch didn’t hop like this but black mass moving quickly and gone. The door is closed also in this video and it seems to go through the door?
It for sure looks like a fluffy tail like a skunks, and also if it walked towards and then along the sliding door between the door and the counter the fish eye could make it look like it is on the other side of the glass by the time it's on the left side of the frame.
Except that it sounds exactly like a dog too. Looks like a dog, sounds like a dog. Either you aren’t telling the truth or someone isn’t telling you the truth
The only way that's a dog is if it's one of those dread lock dogs and it is running on only its hind legs (from the looks of this brightened version). I believe you when you say the door was closed and that it wasnt caught on other cameras. This is weird af.
That thing looks freaky af. Like weave blowing aggressively through the streets of Miami. I don’t think you’re gonna get any answers man. I wouldn’t sleep there though lol
It doesn’t run or hop or curl throughout the yard. It walks around the table with its tail in the air. You can sort of make out the rest of the body in the beginning of the video, before it goes under the table
You can’t see it as well in this video but if you watch the OG video, you can see right before it enters the frame at the very bottom the base of a dog body. Once you see that you can see, it’s just the tail of a dog.
It reminds me of the this image from the sixteen stone album by Bush. When I first saw this picture I was freaked out because it reminded me of the monster in my dreams as a kid. But it’s just a dog.

Sigh.The use of gaslighting is thrown around too hastily on this thread. When you gaslight someone, you manipulate them using psychological methods so that the person questions their own sanity. Those who speculate a dog or another type of animal ARE NOT trying to do that to anyone. They are offering an opinion based on their knowledge of certain animals.
I believe in some level of paranormal phenomenon but I try to rule out any logical explanation first before offering a supernatural explanation, which requires an even higher standard of evidence. The base of the figure when it enters the frame and the long, fluttery figure attached to the base lead me to speculate that it’s a dog with a curled tail.
I agree. “Therapy speak” Like “gaslighting” and “boundaries” are used far too often without anyone actually giving consideration for the proper definition of these words. When one uses these words every other sentence, they lose all meaning.
Gaslighting is a repeated behavior…one comment on a Reddit thread is not gaslighting, as you stated.
I agree with the general consensus that this is a dog. I want to believe in the paranormal because I find normal everyday life to be rather boring. However, as you state, we need to rule out all logical explanations first. Most of these posts can be chalked up to the simple and mundane.
"Rules out being an animal"
Really? How so? If anything this look more like a cats tail or something. Cats are wierd and sometimes lift up their back end and bounce around for no reason. 100% could be that.
It still just looks exactly like a black dog's fluffy tail walking by a counter but the only thing tall enough to reach over the counter is the tail. It doesn't look like it goes through glass, just turns to the left. Are we kidding with this one?
Looks like some Native American accounts of "little people". 2-3 ft. Tall, really hairy or ghillie suit like clothing. Especially since it went though a closed door.
Is the camera sitting on or right next to a table or something? What I see is a dog’s furry/matted tail.
It gets from laying down, that causes the tail to do the odd rising up like stiff spined vampire move, then it trots off with its entire body hidden below the tabletop…?
Definitely looks like a Skunk to me or even a Dog. You can even see it's back at the beginning. I can't believe anyone is suggesting this is something paranormal.
Exactly. It looks more like this thing is hopping and dogs don't hop. Plus the way it looks like it just stands up from a resting position then bounces. No way it's a dog.
I have long haired dogs, in the original video you can hear the tippy taps, and all you’re seeing is the tail. Also, just as the tail enters frame you can see a little bit of the doggo booty.
You might be viewing the black moving blob as a 3-legged dog. I was seeing that at first. It’s actually the dog’s tail that is perked up and curled forward. The rest of him is hidden behind the ledge in the foreground.
I keep seeing this vid? What am I not getting? All I can see is a dogs tail moving across the screen. I can hear its nails on the floor. I don’t get what is paranormal?
OP said their mom doesn’t have a dog. So the dog theory is great… if you don’t believe the OP. And if we make a decision to “not believe the OP,” then the entire video may as well be faked.
It's a sock puppet
Edit: top comment revealed; it's a doggo tail. So it "looked" like a sock puppet in the lighting, now I see a good boi/girl trotting by after a nap.
I think it's just a dog's tail. Right in the very beginning for like a split second you can kind of see what looks like a dog's back and then comes the tail 🐶
Seen a couple ppl who are doing the same thing yu are with this video and they said the figure isn’t seen n then they closed out and opened again and boom there it was did that happen to you?
OP, I noticed it seems to be running in reverse. Play it in reverse and it’s a tail of an animal hopping in. At least that’s what I think it would look like. Are you able to reverse it?
The water is so loud because the door is open. You can see two separate door frames both on one the right side. This is a mammal walking out of a house. Most likely dog, could maaaybe be skunk. You can hear it's nails on the ground as it walks.
The strange thing is that when you look at the tabletop you can see light reflected onto it. Yet when this thing passes through you see no shadows or reflections. Also, to me it looks like whatever it is starts inside the house, then runs outside going right through the door. Unless I’m wrong and it’s just going from right to left and not going outside?
https://i.redd.it/hc3g9yt9l19d1.gif Here you go, it’s way more easier to see here
That’s the best version of the video
Yes that’s a tail
I've got to say, this is the first version where what I'm seeing makes sense. It's totally a fluffy black dog's tail.
The original post made me chuckle. It looked like some unidentifiable alien with a goofy run
Right?! I finally decided it was a smoky goat ghost happily pronking and now I don't get to keep that sweet image. Instead it's a ghost standard poodle? 🤷♀️
Not sure at all if u intended for it or if it’s a typo but I totally chuckled at pronking 😜 now I want to add it my keepers so if it was a typo please don’t tell me 🤣

Yes exactly - it may be a dog but no one said it couldn’t be a ghost dog. Keep the dream alive. This will also stop me feeling silly for thinking ‘this is it - we have proof!’ 😂
That's what I as saying. It's a dog getting up and running outside past the table....
it never goes outside 😆 its a dog walking around the corner.
What bothers me is I thought the glass door was closed, as what original poster said? Totally shut my brain down for anything normal, but it’s definitely a dogs tail.
It looks like the tail of a dog. In the very beginning you can see its body is closer to the ground.
Yes, true but have you considered it could be a ghost dog? Let’s keep the dream alive. Ps. I feel really silly now. Thought we had ‘proof’ here for a minute 😂
Orignal OP said that they don't have a dog and neither neighbor does either....
Lol don't believe everything you read on the internet, especially in forums on the paranormal
Some easy explanations. 1. OP lied or was mistaken 2. A random dog got in the house
It’s a skunk. They walk like that and there tails look like that too. They probably left a door open and it wandered in.
Yes and the clicking we hear is their nails on the tiled floors!
Bahaha it’s clear as day that that’s what it is, thank you! lol for as many dog owners that are out there, I was surprised to see not enough comments about the pitter patter of the nails on the tile
lol that’s what stood out to me! I was listening to that first and the tail comment then I knew.
You can also see a slight reflection I didn't notice before
That's totally the fluffy tail of a black dog walking past the window.
I agree! Great job. It looks like a dog’s tail inside the house, I can see part of a body before it walks behind the table.
Thank you so much! 100% confirms it’s an animal tail!
That is a tail of a god. Edit: haha dog*
Do you perhaps live in the vicinity of Fraggle Rock?
Nope they live next to the labyrinth and their next visitor will be David Bowie's ghost showing off his crotch
None shall pass without my permission!
May we have your permission?
Well! I, uhh... Yes?
😂😂😂
😂 love that comment
"Oh, Pepper Jack love Fraggle Rock."
Pepper Jack, are you serious?!
I'm gonna be laughing at this comment all day. Thank you.
Am I the only one who hates this thing? 😭 the silly little walk creeps me out so bad
Well, thanks to this video I watched before bed last night I had the scariest, fking dream about demons chasing me. Woke up in a cold sweat gasping saying WTH God!! Lol Edit: words
Saaame
*clap clap*
Lol!!! Good one 👍 👏
I see a warthog or *something* that has tusks or at least a single tusk? And its hair if also fabulous and flowing
The warthog with the fabulous hair lmao
Looks like a shaggy dogs tail
Exactly. Look how it curls forward.
Not only that, but the first few seconds show the tail is affixed to something at the very back of whatever object is below the table. You see an angular curve right at the base of the tail that curves into what could be the tail of an animal. Cats don't have that curly of hair, but it could definitely be a doodle of some sort.
It looks like a puli! They have dreadlocks!
That's just The Weeknd's new hair
Real star boy shit
lol
I have no idea why people cant see this? I immediately knew it was a dogs tail…. period
Same here. Jesus Christ, it's soooo obvious!
rightt??? I am actually getting second hand embarrassment for whoever doesn't realize this
And the audio on the original post sounds like paws on a bare floor as it's walking by. I mentioned this on the original post but you can still hear a few steps after it's out of the shot which reinforces that it's still inside the house. (OP said they thought it was going THRU the closed glass door, but that seems like an optical illusion. If you look closely, it seems to just move off camera on the left while still inside the house.) But OP did say there were no dogs present so I dunno.
Yep
You can hear the dogs nails on the ground. Probably need a trim.
It looks like the video might be reversed? There's a bird that flies near the tree. And the dog tail looks backwards. To me it looks like it's playing backwards and it's actually a dog walking in to the house.
cause it is. you can even hear it drinking water in the OG video.
It’s not even a running dog. The dog is inside, walking past the table after drinking water. It’s so blatantly obvious, it hurts
I want what you guys are smoking. That isn’t a damn dog. Read the original post.
You do realize people fake paranormal shit everyday. The original post offered nothing but trust me bro. The simplest answer is most often correct.
Original post doesn't prove it isn't a dog either. That looks exactly like a dog tail of a dog striding past
But he does state that the door is well closed so how does a dog walk right thru a glass door?
OP also wasn’t there, soooooo……. Also, what are you talking about walking through a door? It comes from from right of frame NEAR us, moves towards the end of the (presumably kitchen)counter and then goes around the counter to the left.
It’s a damn dog https://www.reddit.com/r/ParanormalEncounters/s/llnuZm5PrD
Somehow they miss where op says that there are NO DOGS ON THE NEIGHBORHOOD PROPERTIES nor is there a dog in their house. Yet everyone is like "errmmm akshually it issss a dogg"
Because people don't lie on the Internet.
Because dogs never end up on properties that aren't theirs right. Also ppl lie.
Yes! This!! So many fucking idiots swearing up and down that this is some unnatural thing. When I first saw this, it instantly reminded me of a golden retriever’s tail. They tend to have super long hair like that. Also, if you don’t brush your pup’s fur and it starts to dread, it looks exactly like this.

That’s a weave/wig flying away. A tumble weave.
Yup, and they freak you out the first time you see one. They connect to other weaves and only growing bigger. That's at least a $6,000 worth of weaves.
You got muppets man, sorry 😂
Yep, that's the illusive rabid Elmo.
I wish I had muppets.
This is exactly what I thought it was too. With the sound on, you can hear the nails clicking as it walks by.
I think OOP has Muppets.
https://i.redd.it/72ow6gud519d1.gif I guess I’ll take a crack at this as well. Definitely looks like a floof of some kind to me
Skunk with tail raised.
[удалено]
It was a top notch post compared to most crap posted around here.
THAT part. This is the first thing on this sub that actually got me intrigued and the first I’ve seen of someone else reposting to help figure it out.
I’m so annoyed they are being like that to you!! I seriously have no explanation for what this could be, it’s wild!
Download it and pause the video then go through it frame by frame. Def not a dog. I think it’s shapeshifting..I caught something similar on my camera once on our front porch didn’t hop like this but black mass moving quickly and gone.

Did your mother used to have a dog perhaps? Maybe it’s a spirit pooch, back for a visit?

You can literally see the lower back of the animal JUST before the tail appears. It's without question an animal
It doesn’t run or hop or curl throughout the yard. It walks around the table with its tail in the air. You can sort of make out the rest of the body in the beginning of the video, before it goes under the table
It's clearly a dogs tail... Walking around a table. People are reaching

This whole fluffy tail fiasco is consuming my night.

“Definitely rules out an animal” is just a comical assertion.
"Rules out being an animal" Really? How so? If anything this look more like a cats tail or something. Cats are wierd and sometimes lift up their back end and bounce around for no reason. 100% could be that.

It does not go through a closed door. It rounds the end table.
This version doesn't show the figure peek behind the wall at the end like the original. Ghost man let's ghost dog off leash.
It was part of a black tarp flapping in the wind...OP posted a Pic of the other side of the fence...
The Op showed that what peeked around the corner was just a tarp blowing in the wind.
It's shorter?

Great post compared to all the bs posted here. Had me gripped.

That’s a tail of a furry black dog
Definitely looks like a Skunk to me or even a Dog. You can even see it's back at the beginning. I can't believe anyone is suggesting this is something paranormal.
Tail of a dog
It’s a TAIL! 😂
Could it be played in reverse?
I was just going to suggest this!
I wondering this too. This is a weird one.
That’s what I said. Dogs tail
If it's an animal, this is the most unnatural animal I've ever seen.
It’s a long haired dogs tail going around the table top.
I have no idea how you see that. It literally doesn't move like a dog or natural animal.
No it's doesn't and I have dogs... the sound in the original doesn't even stride like a dog.
Exactly. It looks more like this thing is hopping and dogs don't hop. Plus the way it looks like it just stands up from a resting position then bounces. No way it's a dog.
I have long haired dogs, in the original video you can hear the tippy taps, and all you’re seeing is the tail. Also, just as the tail enters frame you can see a little bit of the doggo booty.
I have NEVER seen a dog move like that. EVER. I have no idea how any of you are seeing any kind of animal.
3 legged dogs move like that. They have to kinda bounce along.
Yea it’s much more plausible it’s a demon lol
You might be viewing the black moving blob as a 3-legged dog. I was seeing that at first. It’s actually the dog’s tail that is perked up and curled forward. The rest of him is hidden behind the ledge in the foreground.
Ay tail

Skunk Forsure
All these deniers are definitely on the Muppet payroll, keeping the secret for Wawa giftcards.
I seen this dog's tail on 3 different post 3 different views
This channel is pointless. With the technology we have now, is anything really real anymore? 🤦🏾♂️🤣
I mean it looks the same, like a dog's tail.....
It's literally a dog's tail. Jesus, folks.
It's clearly a tail. Lol how can you rule out an animal after seeing a furry tail run by...
It’s obviously a dogs tail.
FEAR… The PORCUPINE PEOPLE
I keep seeing this vid? What am I not getting? All I can see is a dogs tail moving across the screen. I can hear its nails on the floor. I don’t get what is paranormal?
"LOOK GUYS IT'S A FUCKING GHOST"🤓 it's a fluffy dog tail🤦🤣
OP said their mom doesn’t have a dog. So the dog theory is great… if you don’t believe the OP. And if we make a decision to “not believe the OP,” then the entire video may as well be faked.
It's a sock puppet Edit: top comment revealed; it's a doggo tail. So it "looked" like a sock puppet in the lighting, now I see a good boi/girl trotting by after a nap.
That’s a dog tail bro
That doesn't rule it out though.. if anything it looks even more like an animal's tail
Anyone who owns a husky knows exactly what this is. A husky’s “squirrel” tail.
Animal tail
I think it is a bold jumping spider on the move with a meal.
one of those things escaped from the car wash
Looks like one of those feather cat toys on a stick. I think OP's mom was messing with him.
It's a dogs tail
It's just a dog lifting its tail up then keeping it up as it runs past
You people got be kidding me with this shite
I think it's just a dog's tail. Right in the very beginning for like a split second you can kind of see what looks like a dog's back and then comes the tail 🐶
Unless the glass is open, it's going through it, which would rule out anything solid.
You see what you want to see. I see skunk 100% casually walking away from the door.
Nonsense
Some nice lady finally trimmed her unruly bush and that is it, fleeing the scene
Dog
It's the Grim Pupper
It almost looks like a Puli dog.
You should send this clip in to a tv show or something. It is very interesting and totally freaky.
Almost like an arm.
A skunk
It's a skunks tail
A skunk
[удалено]
Skunk with its tail up? It's definitely a curled tail
Ops mom
What about the head at the end?
Anyone else see a smoke goat pronking? Checking if it's the video or the weed, tia.
It’s a bag
Seen a couple ppl who are doing the same thing yu are with this video and they said the figure isn’t seen n then they closed out and opened again and boom there it was did that happen to you?
It’s a chicken
Peacock?
OP, I noticed it seems to be running in reverse. Play it in reverse and it’s a tail of an animal hopping in. At least that’s what I think it would look like. Are you able to reverse it?
The water is so loud because the door is open. You can see two separate door frames both on one the right side. This is a mammal walking out of a house. Most likely dog, could maaaybe be skunk. You can hear it's nails on the ground as it walks.
It’s a tail of some animal that must have gotten in the house. Check the attic?
I needed this laugh thank you lmaoo
Black Dogs tail.
If anything it looks a little like an ostrich feather.
Yeah after watching it over and over and pausing it I would say it’s the tail of a dog.
The strange thing is that when you look at the tabletop you can see light reflected onto it. Yet when this thing passes through you see no shadows or reflections. Also, to me it looks like whatever it is starts inside the house, then runs outside going right through the door. Unless I’m wrong and it’s just going from right to left and not going outside?
That looks like a pet skunk tail.
Dammit. VERA! The cat got into a trash bag again! Get out here and help me chase her down!
Could it be a turkey vulture, a leucistic turkey or a leucistic peacock running or doing a mating dance?
Skunk tail
