My neighbor's dog brought home a human skull, what

[jilley]

should I do? We live out in the country and the dog brought it home a few weeks ago. She says she wants to keep it for decoration and it is now stuck on her fence post. When I take her the paper every day, it creeps me out. Her dog is always leaving deer horns in my yard also, so it must be out there killing deer and breaking their horns off.

[mabelkitty]

Call the police and let them know.
If the dog may have come across a shallow grave, and your neighbor is a moron for not figuring this out.

[lilylangtree]

Call the police dept if you're sure it's human. Sounds like foul play somewhere.

[Old Sarge]

Call the State Police ASAP. Be forthcoming with whatever questions they ask.

[grellis]

A genuine human skull? Your neighbor wants to keep it??? Oy vey!

[Phantom Lord]

Its just whats left of the Kerry campaign in your state. No worries.

[michaelbfree]

Well, I would just place a call to the local authorities, tell them what has happened. This could be a missing person, a murder victim, or just an old grave he dug up, but the authorities should check it out. I would think that would be a reasonable thing to do...

[hispanarepublicana]

call the police.

[dirtboy]

You need to post this on FR to get our advice? Call the cops immediately - it's either a missing person or a homicide or a suicide.

"She says she wants to keep it for decoration "


I'd report Mrs. Hussein to the local authorities, ASAP.

[laotzu]

Are you joking?!!

I believe the proper ettiquette, upon finding a dead human, is to call the police.

[mlbford2]

Creepy dog.

[Chummy]

...welcome...back?

[frankenMonkey]

Quick! get it registered as a Republican before the dems find out!

[HAL9000]

the dog brought it home a few weeks ago.

Sheesh. You should have contacted the sheriff immediately.

Whatever happened to common sense?

[tertiary01]

Just to let you know that deer naturally shed their horns.

[mabelkitty]

No kidding!
Unless the dog is being blamed for dragging the remains around the 'hood, my money is on the Norman Bates-neighbor trolling around.

[EggsAckley]

You should most definitely call the police about the human skull.

As to the deer antlers, deer shed their antlers every year. It's very common to find antlers in a forest. I wouldn't worry about that. The dog is probably finding old antlers.

[isthisnickcool]

That happens here all the time. Don't worry about it.

[Eva]

What state are in? There are a lot of possibilities, from a washed out old grave, a recent burial, a dumped body, a dead homeless person. You need to call the police and report it. It's really a sick thing to display the skull. It sounds terribly heathen and barbaric.

[.38sw]

Oh, yeah, call the police (or sheriff). Anonymously if you don't want your neighbor to find out who called. This needs to be investigated. I can't imagine having my dog bringing me a human skull and just parking it on a fence post. Good grief!

[mabelkitty]

Yes, I know.
I'm not the poster - I'm the stunned byposter.

[Beckwith]

Exactly, where do you live?

[mlbford2]

I NEED HELP. There is a large growth growing out of my genitals the size of a basketball and it smells like Doritos. What should I do?

[P8riot]

Well I'd definitely get the authorities to look into the skull.

On the subject of antlers (deer horns), deer shed their horns every year so I wouldn't worry about that. In fact you could make a little money if you're smart. If you've got enough of them you might be able to sell them in pairs to local hunters to use to "rattle in" deer during hunting season.

[Charles Henrickson]

We live out in the country. . . .

Which one? Cambodia?

[Mjaye]

This needs to be reported to authorities immediately. There may be a crime scene involved, a missing person, or it could of course be very old,but in any case the authorities need to know about it.

There could be a family somewhere who has no idea as to the fate of their loved one, or perhaps it's from an old gravesite that's been disturbed. If she won't call, please do it yourself.

[tertiary01]

Oops sorry, and a well loved poster at that!!

[elli1]

I think you HAVE to report finding human remains. Maybe some of the legal eagles here at FR can confirm or clarify?

[jilley]

You don't have to be so mean. I have known her for 25 years and she is a wonderful person. I find it hard to just call the police on her, so I am in a moral fix. THAT IS WHY I POSTED IT HERE. Freerepublic has lawyers and other professionals that might offer some good advice.

[smiley]

If there is a skull...the rest of the body is probably a quarter of a mile within radius....call the police...CSI will also be on the scene and probably take blood samples from your dog....

[Xenalyte]

It's terrifically declasse to display a skull that you did not remove from the owner yourself.

[TexasCajun]

Her dog is always leaving deer horns in my yard also, so it must be out there killing deer and breaking their horns off.

Priceless!

Call the Frito Bandito

Whats wrong with skulls as decorations? I have a very large skull collection and artwork involving skulls.

One of my favorites is All In Vanity...

Talk to Laz. If he had a nickel for every time that had happened to him, he'd have, like, four nickels.

[OXENinFLA]

How old did it look?

Call the cops.......

IT'S WALTER!!!

[mabelkitty]

It also has more than its fair share of kooks and weirdos.

The dog brought it home a few weeks ago. She says she wants to keep it for decoration and it is now stuck on her fence post.

I’d be more worried about the talking dog than the human skull, unless it talks too.

[G.Mason]

"You need to post this on FR to get our advice? "

Yeah ... what's that all about.

Dear Ann Landers ...

[Scythian]

I am in a moral fix.

Ya, like should I do the right thing or cover up for my friend, sheeze

[hellinahandcart]

The dog told you she wants to keep it as a decoration?

[InsensitiveConservative]

Are you serious? A human head placed on a fence post for decoration and you have to ask...

What a disgusting display of disrespect for the dead.

[StoneColdGOP]

HA! Haven't seen "The Burbs" in ages.

[Constitution Day]

Weird thread of the day alert!
