Shunka's last puppy... [UPDATE]

So today my little man (dog), Shunka Warakin Smallthunder, had his last puppy vet visit. He has his rabies shots and everything.

Shnka is 42.7 LBS and 4 months old.

The only thing is that the vet thinks Shunka may have a bladder infection or crystallization because he pisses a lot. Like a LOT. So in about a month if he doesn't chill I will have to get a puppy pee sample for the vet. :(

Oh and if you are wondering what Shunka Warakin is or means, well I can help with that.

Shunka Warakin
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


The Shunka Warakin (also shunka warak'in) is an American beast from cryptozoology and mythology that is said to resemble a wolf, a hyena or both. The first discussion and description of this cryptid was by Loren Coleman in his columns and articles throughout the 1980s, especially as formally recorded in "Cryptozoology A to Z" (NY: Simon and Schuster, 1999, ISBN 0684856026). It was reported from the Great Plains during pioneer days, by both white settlers and Native American tribes. The sightings have become much less common in the last century, causing most supporters to suggest the animal is now extinct.
In the language of the American Indian Ioway people, as discovered and collected by Loren Coleman, shunka warak'in means "carries off dogs." Shunka Warak'in at Cryptomundo.com The best evidence of its existence was a specimen shot around the 1899-1900 turn of the century by a member of the Hutchins clan in Montana. It appeared to be a wolf-like creature with a long head, slightly resembling a wild boar. Some people say it looks more like some prehistoric or Ice Age creatures, perhaps surviving to the present day, like the thylacine. The creature was later mounted in a general store owned by a man named in Henry Lake, Idaho, with the title "Ringdocus." This information was recorded by zoologist Ross Hutchins, grandson of the man who shot it. This only known piece of physical evidence, a stuffed trophy, was never examined by qualified scientists and is now missing - although recent rumors indicate it is in the Yellowstone region.


Cryptozoologists put forth a variety of prehistoric mammals as possible identities: hyaenodons, dire wolves, members of the subfamily Borophaginae (hyena-like dogs), or Chasmaporthetes (the only true American hyena).
It has also been suggested, although not by mainstream cryptozoologists, as being a possible candidate for the Beast of Bray Road [1] which could tie the creature in with Skin-walker legends. The shunka warak'in has never been recorded as walking upright, as researchers on the Beast of Bray Road contend their subject does.
Between December 2005 through November 2006, a shunka warak'in-like or large unusual-looking wolf-like beast killed 120 sheep in McCone and surrounding counties in Montana. It was shot on November 2, 2006, in Garfield County, Montana, and, as of December 10, 2006, the 106-pound reddish-yellow beast has been unable to be identified by Montana wildlife officials.
