The witness was camping in his camper van when his dog, a German Shepherd, wanted to leave that night, and soon after he heard the dog's single "bark". He took his light, the brightness of several million candles, and left, flooding the area with light. 

He saw a strange creature whose eyes shone with a green light. It was almost yellow in color, three feet tall, about 100 pounds, bipedal, with five spikes of 2.5 feet (0.7 m) on his back, and he was sucking blood from the dog. He looked at it, then screamed and ran away when the witness yelled at him, worried about his pet. The dog's neck was broken, twisted to the back, it had two fangs, and it looked like it was covered in blood. 

He heard another scream from a distance, hurriedly put the dog's corpse in his small camper tub, put ice on it, and got out, heading to the local vet.

Original news

Location. Near Everglades National Park, Florida
Date: May 15 1997
Time: night
The witness was in his RV camping when his dog, a German shepherd wanted out that night, and shortly after he heard a single “yelp” from the dog. He took his light, one of those million candlepower jobs, and went out, flooding the area with light. He saw a strange creature, with eyes that glowed green in and out of the light. It was almost yellow, three feet tall, about 100 pounds, bipedal, five 2-1/2 foot spines on its back and it was sucking blood out of the dog. It looked at him, then let out a screech, and ran off when the witness yelled at it, concerned about his pet. The dog’s neck was broken, twisted to the back, and had two fang marks, and appeared to be drained of blood. He heard another scream from the distance, and hurriedly put the dogs body in his small RV bathtub, and put ice on it, and got out of there, heading to a local vet. The vet said he knew of no animal that would do that, confirming that the shepherd had been drained of blood, but admitted he had heard of other cases that were similar.
