answer:3:35 am Saturday. Burlington Township NJ. It started for us when Uncle Mandy heard scratchings at the door and opened it. He was looking for Riker, his dog, the whole afternoon, so naturally we thought it was him scratching. We were right. And we were wrong. It was Riker alright. But the animal with the all white rotting eyes who snarled and bit my uncle’s leg, pulling him screaming into the dark was not the dog who won the Westminster Dog Show two weeks ago.
