No offense bro but I'm thinking a vest might not make a difference if a coyote got this dog.
Boston terrier? Must've had a lot of fight in him to get free from the coyote. Did it effect his personality afterwards? PTSD?
I wouldn’t bother with the vest from the OP. I’d probably get him an exploding vest like what a suicide bomber wears. That way if a coyote ever got him he could go out with dignity like Vasquez and Gorman from Aliens.
Anything close to a coyote in size they won’t mess with. We have a Blue Heeler outside, he’s roughly the same size and the coyotes want nothing to do with him. Every night at least a dozen of them are yipping at him from about 200 yards away, but they won’t come any closer.Serious question- how dangerous are coyotes to dogs? I grew up in a rural area, and theere were coyotes, but farmers and others with land did not really worry about their larger dogs, German Shepherds, boxers etc.
I've heard stories about coyotes luring dogs away from the house, then getting killed by a larger pack.
Is this really a thing?
For exmaple, say you had a 100.b dog on yoru land. Would you have to worry about it?
