My partner at the time and I were in the process of building our first home. We worked long hours and were tiling our house ourselves to save on money. The tiling had to be done within a certain timeframe. We both worked full time, and would drive to the new house out at Woodhill, 4285 from our work places, tile part of the house, then drive back home to our rental, most often very late into the night. This particular night we stayed very late, around 1am we started driving back to the home near Amberley. Travelling west along the Centenary Highway, this was before the housing estate had started, so it was all bushland. We notice up ahead along the side of the highway this what seemed to look like a dog. We slowed down, so we did not hit it and being dog owners we wondered if it was alright or if it was a wild dog. As we approached the area where it was, we saw these deep red eyes, they weren't glowing it was luminescent deep red, this dog crouched down in a way dogs cannot crouch/ sit, like its legs were bent backwards. I said, "Drive, keep driving, don't stop.." but my partner at the time slowed down more and was looking right at it in the grass as we approached it. We both must got the creepiest feeling and all of a sudden he just took off, sped away saying, "I dont know what the f*ck that was and i don't want to find out." I later googled what i saw and it kept coming up with Chupacabra. Maybe it was just a dog, eating one of the many dead kangaroos, the car lights made its eyes different. I am not sure of what i saw but the feelin, and how it sat backwards, gave me the absolute creepiest feeling, like i shouldn't be seeing it.
