Some said â??donâ??t worryâ?? and others told me horrific stories of coyotes. HOWEVER, I really appreciate the advise and great stories !!!!! I will admit, I love our coyotes. They howl and yelp, and generally make a pest of themselves. They often get our dog to join in. But, they are shy, and don't approach anyone. They will at time come near the dogs, but never close enough to cause a problem. Also, they hunt in packs, so if you have a couple of dogs together, the coyotes will stay away. We do have lots of rabbits that always are darting over the yard when I leave in the mornings. The coyotes are in the street now and then, or outside the fences. They tend to run, but are a part of nature I enjoy. I love the sound of a coyote on the hill, or a lonesome train whistle in the distance. Not that there is anything wrong with that. Evan L.
