Zerk - no, fortunately, I did not see it. However - I CERTAINLY heard it and saw the remains.
I understand - coyotes and all other wildlife have a right to be here. Maybe even more than I do. It's just - coyotes will always be coyotes and nothing will ever change that.
I have a little brown Cocker Spaniel now - Brownie. He has learned about coyotes. We go out for a walk on my property( 80 acres). He will NEVER get much more that 50 feet ahead of me. He will stop and wait for me to catch up to him.
I hear a coyote call - Brownie will be sitting right at my feet.
This is the way it has to be - if I want to keep a dog.
You want to hear a really gross story. I had two Australian Blue Healers. I think they REALLY hated coyotes. At night they would go out and HUNT coyotes and kill them.
Late one night - wild screaming in the front yard. Stubby and Trek( the two Blue Healers ) had caught a coyote in the yard. They proceeded to disembowel and eat the coyote. This was such a viscous engagement - I though better of going out and trying to stop it. I was always a bit leery of these two dogs.
