"I bet if you blew his head off with a shotgun it would do quite nicely." "Don't you know anything about werewolves?" "I know you turn into one if you get bit by one." "But the full moon part..." "Maybe there's different kinds of werewolves, but it's been my experience that any moon will do the trick." "Werewolf-wise." "Have you ever met a werewolf?" "I've been acquainted with a few in my time." "How about you?" "Come on." "Everybody knows there's no such thing as werewolves." "Well..." "There you go." "Brett, will you take the trash out before breakfast, please?" " Aw, Mom." " Don't "Aw, Mom," me." "Go." "So, what all happened last night?" "I don't know really." "Thor thought he heard something in the woods, practically threw a fit." "Woke up the whole house." "Lucky you were in the Airstream." "Anyway, I finally let him out." "He ran out into the woods and he didn't come back." "I tried calling him with that dog whistle but he kept barking." "So?" "What did he find?" "Nothing." "What do you think it was all about?" "I don't know, really." "I'm not that worried." "Thor barks at practically anything." "I don't know, Janet." "Big predators, they can travel a long distance if their habitat runs dry." "Just because there hasn't been anything dangerous in this forest recently doesn't mean it's always gonna be safe." "If I were you, I wouldn't let Brett play out there for awhile until..." "Until what?" "There weren't supposed to be any wolves up where I am." "Look what happened to those people." "I thought they said it was a grizzly bear." "Janet, wolves, grizzly bears, I mean it's the same difference!" "All I'm saying is you have to be a little more cautious." "Take the dog more seriously and don't let him play out there." "Don't you think you're overdoing it?" "I mean Thor isn't exactly helpless, you know." "Janet, how big is that dog?" "Get this, he's 105 pounds." "Do you know how big a gray wolf gets?" "Try 200 pounds!" "Give me a break, Ted." "The dog starts barking at night and all of a sudden you've got a 200-pound wolf at the door!" "Are you feeling okay?"

"She has invited me to stay with her." "Perhaps if I spend time with her, with my family... this disease will go into remission." "Medicine will not stave off this disease."

" [CLICKS TONGUE] - [BLOWS KISSES]" "Come here, you frigging stupid dog." "[GROWLING]" "Nice doggie." " [SCREAMING] - [ROARING]" "Sheriff, where have you been?" "Is this the man who approached your place last month?" "Yeah, it is." "He's dead." "His name is Jerry Mills." "We found him on the road, a couple hundred yards from your house." "He bore the marks of an animal attack." "He's been torn open by a big animal like a wolf or..." "Or a dog, is that it?" "Yes, ma'am." "I do recall you told me the last time Thor almost took a bite out of Mills." "Well, maybe last night when Mills came back, Thor went at him again." "[POLICE RADIO CHATTER IN BACKGROUND]" "Thor got in a fight last night... with something or... someone." "He's got cuts all over him." "I see." "You know about these slayings up in the Timberline area... those hikers that were killed?" "Yes, Janet." "That wouldn't be the same animal that killed Mills." "It would've had to travel 200 miles from Timberline to get here." "That's not what I mean." "My question is... is it possible that... they were committed by a human being?" "No chance at all, Janet." "They were done by a big animal." "No man could tear a person apart the way the beast that butchered those people did." "The same with Mills last night." "Wolves are the probable culprits." "Very, very big wolves, but not a man." "Not humanly possible." "Why did you ask?" "I don't know." "I reckon that's all for now, Janet." "I'll be in touch." "Thanks." "Just one thing." "I know you love Thor." "And if he did tear up Mills, he was doing so to protect you." "But once a dog becomes a biter, gets a taste for human blood, he becomes dangerous." "I suggest you consider shopping for another hound." "Good morning, there, big guy." "How are you doing this morning?" "Want to go outside, Thor, huh?" "Want to go outside?" "Come on." "Right to the Airstream." "Where were you last night, Ted?" "I went for a run." "All night?"
