I was told that a Coyote will stalk an area(dog) for up to 30 days. They will wait in prey until just the right time. It doesn't matter who is there any more, they will go after what they want. That is how they got my Mothers dog a couple years ago. She was standing 15 to 20 feet away. They didn't eat her just killed her. We also have a client who had one jump her 8 foot fence to get her little dog. She saw it and ran our screaming and it dropped him. Much money later he was fine. A few weeks later the damn thing came back and tried again. YOU CANNOT TRUST THEM EVER> But the little dog got away again but not without a FIGHT and a bunch of Vet bills.
