Before I start, I want to say that I am totally open to dogman being real. I've heard the eyewitness stories, seen the photoshops, and read all about them. I'm just skeptical as to why there hasn't been a single piece of evidence collected by anyone in all the time that dogman has been reported.
I know the argument is that in the moment you're not going to think to snap a picture or start recording, but what about the people out there looking for it? Or people who have seen it on more than one occasion? I know if I had seen a dogman before I wouldn't go outside without my phone ready to take a picture. Why hasn't anyone been able to get more than a blurry photo of something that may or may not even be a dogman?
It would be fascinating if dogman was real, but I've been having a really hard time buying into it when all I have to go on is eyewitness accounts.
Edit: Just want to say that I have nothing but respect for the people going out into the field looking for them. I don't want to sound like I'm being disrespectful, I'm just getting increasingly skeptical as time goes on without a single morsel of evidence.

Wow Age47, you stole the words out of my mouth! These beings like dogman, Bigfoot and mothman, I believe, are multi dimesional and for all we know, may have the ability to keep themselves from being recorded, or even yet something greater than them is stopping it. What is interesting is both the host of dogman enounters and Linda Godfrey have claimed to have seeen dogman evidence but claimed they weren’t allowed tthe witnesses to share it......I do think we may see some evidence someday.

For me, the lack of any remains or any other collected evidence makes me think we may be dealing with something that is not entirely "in" this world (or universe). That will sound ridiculous to some, but I've listened to enough testimony of people who have experienced things "outside the box," and seen video purported to be of "paranormal" events, some of which I feel is very likely the real deal, that I find it less difficult to think this way than I once did. I also believe in a spiritual world beyond the physical, and not everything in that world is good or friendly, nor is it all necessarily understandable by our limited minds. Fair enough, do you happen to have a link to the video you mentioned? I'd be interested to see it if it's convincing.

After watching a few of those Creepy Seven Paranormal poltergeist videos I have to say most of the clips appear hoaxed to me. The way some on the objects moved, the all too convenient camera angles, and over-the-top reactions really stood out to me. For instance, in This Clip, you can clearly see a string tied to the doorknob in the background that they used to close the door at 1:50. Or in This Clip, the camera is positioned in such a way that there could easily be someone under the table with a magnet or a string moving the board. In my opinion, most of the paranormal videos you find on youtube are probably hoaxes, especially if the videos have ads on them. There's too much incentive for people to hoax a video and upload it for $$$ as you can easily get 100k+ views on a video like these. That said, a couple of the clips did pique my interest. Such as This One, the reaction here from the guy seems sincere and I can't see any obvious way that one could fake it. And Here, I would normally say there's someone under the table with a magnet but there's no obvious magnet inside the glass, no metal rim on the glass that could magnetize, and they pan to under the table to show there's nobody there. Unless there's a cleverly placed string on the glass being pulled by someone out of frame that I can't see, then I'm not sure how you could fake this. With this kind of thing, I think it's important to ask yourself "why were they filming?", If there's no logical reason to have a camera on at the time then the video loses a lot of credibility. Like Here, There's an obvious reason to be filming (to catch their reaction if they answer the question wrong and get shocked by the game they're playing), and The reactions of the family seem sincere to me. Granted, there could absolutely be someone outside the room with a string pulling the door closed, but the reactions and the genuine reason to have the camera on make me think it might be a real video. I definitely believe there is more to this reality than we can perceive. I like to think of it like the electromagnetic spectrum. Humans can only see something like 0.0035% of the electromagnetic spectrum but it's still there, acting on our world. I think it may be the same thing with a majority of the paranormal, where the reality we perceive is only a slice of the whole picture and we'll need special instruments/abilities to see & measure it. Most of the time, that is. I thought This Video you shared was really interesting. I only wish there was more light shone on whatever it was that crossed the road. And I'll have to keep an eye on that Bigfoot Tony channel. It's refreshing to see someone analyzing cryptid videos/images in an in-depth and unbiased way.

I'm not sure how I might have come off as rude or condescending in any way... You asked what I thought of the videos, and after I combed through a few I gave a pretty good (I thought) unbiased & analytical reply. Sorry if you took offense, was just trying to have a civil discussion.

No offense taken. None intended.
I have nothing else to offer. Please continue.
