SCP-XXXX inside containment unit

Item #:SCP-XXXX

Object Class:Euclid
Special Containment Procedures:SCP-XXXX is to be contained within a Standard Containment Cell with all openings being held at least 3 meters from the containment unit floor.SCP-XXXX must be sedated before any staff enters the containment cell.When personnel enters SCP-XXXX's containment cell the door must be relocked behind them and they may remain in the containment cell no longer than 25 minutes. Any personnel who remain in SCP-XXXX's containment cell longer than 25 minutes are to be considered KIA and there is to be no attempt at retrieval. All staff who enter SCP-XXXX's containment unit should wear a hazardous materials suit covering all of the body. All staff must be checked by at least two other staff members for any exposed flesh before entering SCP-XXXX's containment cell.
Addendum-1a:Due to the nature of SCP-XXXX-1 skin contact with it is to be prevented at all costs. Any staff who make skin contact with SCP-XXXX are to be considered KIA and held within the containment cell until expiration.
Addendum-1b:At all times a customized halter stamped with a cross must remain fastened to SCP-XXXX.Since the implementation of Addendum-1b, no cases of SCP-XXXX-1 have been observed. Further Testing Required
Description:SCP-XXXX has the appearance of a Pembroke Welsh corgi.SCP-XXXX weighs 14 kilograms and stands 30 centimeters tall when SCP-XXXX's anomalous properties are not active. Its anomalous properties are displayed only when skin to skin contact is made with it. SCP-XXXX will attempt to close the gap between itself and any unaffected person and make skin to skin contact. Most victims will attempt to free themselves from contact with SCP-XXXX though no attempt at ending skin to skin contact to prevent anomalous properties from taking effect has been successful.
SCP-XXXX employs two known methods to maintain contact. The first known method is the creature somehow binds itself to the victim it is impossible to determine how this is done due to its anomalous properties. SCP-XXXX has also been observed to increase its weight to the point that any and all attempts by a victim to move it in any way have been unsuccessful. It is impossible to determine the inducement for the increase in weight due to its anomalous properties.
When a case of SCP-XXXXXX-1 is not created the following will be exhibited. Within 30 seconds of contact, extreme coughing fits develop to the point of the victim being unable to speak. Within 2 minutes of contact, victims begin to develop chronic hemoptysis. Within 4 minutes of contact, the victim will be rendered unconscious. Within 5 minutes of contact, the victim's respiratory system is rendered inert resulting in their death. Though these times can vary the victim's demise is imminent in all cases once skin to skin contact is initiated.
Once the victim is deceased scp's anomalous properties will cease until another human makes contact with it. Retrieval of corpses can only be achieved through the use of inorganic means. Autopsies have concluded that the cause of the victim's expiration is Pulmonary Edema in all cases which develops extremely rapidly through showing all the conditions associated with a non-anomalous case such as respiratory scarring.
Cases of SCP-XXXX-1 at first display no anomalous properties and SCP-XXXX's anomalous properties seem to not manifest. Due to this at first cases of SCP-XXXX-1 were not identified. Cases of SCP-XXXX-1 show rapid mental deterioration even in previously completely composed subjects. Cases of SCP-XXXX-1 become violent and manic harming themselves or others showing a preference for drowning when killing themselves or others. The various notable vocalizations of cases of SCP-XXXX-1 can be found in Document Calpa.The cases of SCP-XXXX-1 that lived longer than 2 weeks eventually deteriorated to an animalistic state going into a rage when seeing any human and showing an extreme resilience to small arms fire. Almost all cases of SCP-XXXX-1 eventually kill themselves. Due to the intelligent and violent nature of cases of SCP-XXXX-1, all cases should be terminated except in cases of testing approved by at least 2 level 4 research staff.
It has been able to recall the sanitation and containment staff schedules and use this information to orchestrate escape attempts. Due to this upkeep and cleaning schedules have to be regularly varied or seriously risk a containment breach. These instances of cognitive recollection are a trait never seen in the Pembroke Welsh corgi further distinguishing it from the breed and leading SCP-XXXX to be labeled a Sentient Anomaly.
An unidentified irritant has been found inside the lungs of victims.It has been determined that the irritant is not airborne but transmitted through skin to skin contact. The foundation has yet to determine how the irritant is produced. Rough x-rays and cat scans have shown that SCP-XXXX has an identical muscular and skeletal makeup to that of a male Pembroke Welsh Corgi with identical vital organs. SCP-XXXX rapidly regenerates any tissue that is sickly or injured maintaining a weight of 14 kilograms (when not displaying anomalous properties) consistently.
Though Corgis are a naturally chondrodysplastic dog within the 35 years it has been contained no spinal deformities have developed no other common characteristics of aging in a Pembroke Welsh Corgi have presented. Though it has not been observed consuming its victims, it has been observed ingesting food composed of meat and grain. Feces was later produced with no adverse effects shown displaying its omnivorous diet though not necessary for its continued health.No viable tissue has been found for genetic testing. requires the removal of feces from its containment cell when fecal matter is present.
