South Dakota. The next report is from the Mitchell Capital (Jul. 30, 1897, p. 1, cols. 3-4), a newspaper published in Mitchell, South Dakota. The story originated with the Watertown Public Opinion, a newspaper published in Watertown, South Dakota.
A Freak of Nature
Watertown Public Opinion: Public Opinion secures this piece of information from sources that warrant the vouching for its accuracy, although names are suppressed for obvious reasons: There reside in the reservation country, northwest of Watertown, among others, a man and wife who command the respect of their neighbors. Recently the woman in question gave birth to a child whose face and general features were those of a dog. Its ears were likewise shaped like a dog’s, while its hands were more like claws than like hands. Its crying was an imitation of the bark of a dog. Otherwise the child was properly formed. It survived but a comparatively short time. Our informant says that the woman was frightened on account of a dog fight several months ago, and this incident is presumed to have wrought the deformity of her child.
