before we built our house our property was called coyote ridge- they seem to be more curious when the bitches are in season and I have had four or more males courting my girls at one time--Kris +++++++++++++++++++ I am going thru this right now- I have three in season and they will pull in the rest over the next 6 wks. The coyotes get very brave - Always in the middle of the night and then the rest of the dogs realize they are around and you would swear we are being invaded with all the barking and holing. At least this year with the lack of snow and cold weather the hunting is good for them so they normally don't bother us much ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2005.
