Witness Account:
I was driving home down a hill towards an small pasture, when I noticed an animal that was quite large jumping over a barbed wire fence and heading across the road. I slammed on my brakes to avoid hitting the animal, it was perfectly in front of the headlights of my s-10 pickup. The animal was taller than my truck stood upright and had brown&blackish hair and it appeared to have a matted coat like an old long-haired dog. I paused for a second to decide if what I saw was real then I took off towards home. The animal crossed the road towards the south.
