The South can be a strange and exciting place.

Paulina Mejia was getting ready to go to work on Friday when she spotted something that unfortunately wasn’t unfamiliar.

Her 2-year-old playful German Shepherd mix, Chicarin, dragged home human remains.

Yep, a family in Birmingham, Alabama, found their dog bringing home human remains — for the fourth time in less than a year.

As reported by PEOPLE:

Deputies responded on Aug. 9 after a homeowner in the Center Point area reported that their 2-year-old German Shepherd mix, Chicarin, had once again brought home what appeared to be part of a human skeleton, according to WVTM-13, AL.com and WBRC.

The remains were recovered and sent to the Jefferson County Coroner's Office. Investigators also searched a nearby wooded area, where they found additional remains, WVTM-13 reported.

This has been an ongoing problem for the family.

It's the latest twist in a series of grim discoveries involving Chicarin. The investigation began on Aug. 20, 2024, when Mejía's husband spotted the family's two dogs, Chicarin and another named Chicarone, who is no longer with the family, playing with a skull on the roadway next to their home, AL.com reported.

'He just saw her with the other dog playing with a skull,' she told the outlet. 'My husband was like, "This does not look right."'

Yeah, I'd say your dogs playing soccer with a human head "doesn't look right."

Here is a local news report that lays out the timeline of the "finds." 👇

Authorities cross-checked the DNA of the remains with national databases but have not found any matches. The investigation is ongoing.

At some point, you have to consider the possibility that the dog is a serial killer, right? 😭

“Chicarone” means Pork Rinds, to my knowledge.

I love how that word rolls off my tongue—Cheech-a-rone-NEH!”

Wouldn’t have the problem if they didn’t let him run loose.

In Florida, gators usually clean up the neighborhood.

To find that doggy’s body stash, give her a GPS collar.

“The South can be a strange and exciting place.”

Which is why I advise people to never go there....ESPECIALLY Florida.

Far too many natural hazards to deal with, not to mention it’s full of absolute lunatics. 😏

Put an air tag on the dog’s collar.
