[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 756135, member: 4362"] About two weeks ago I was doing some planting and my dog was tagging along to be sure my rows were straight. While planting I found one of my bulls down with a broke leg. As I walked over to the bull a big coyote or a coy dog (I think its a coy) came out of the woods and stared at us. The coy looked at us and made some funny movements almost as if he was trying to lure Eli into the woods. Of course Eli gives chase and I call him back but the coy comes back and makes the same movements again. Again, Eli gives chase and I call him back again and thankfully he obeys. But the coy comes back again. Knowing I have to dispatch the bull I go to my truck and get a pistol and go back to the area and the coy comes out again and again tries to tempt Eli. I make my way toward the coy with the pistol but can't get any closer than about 100 yards so I take a shot at him but miss.(should've held the pistol sideways I guess) Anyhow, I dispatch the bull and go on about my business figuring the coy is in the next county. Today, I was walking down a woods road near there and Eli was chasing butterflies and whatnots about 100 yards in front of me when this same coy dog charges out of the bushes and attacks him. Eli's first instinct was to fight him but after he got his butt wooped yesterday by a 140 lb yella lab he decides to obey me and he makes a b-line toward me with the dang coy dead on his heels. I yell and the thing keeps coming but finally turns about 20 yards from me. Never had any dealings with these coy dogs and I don't know this for certain but it seems the coy was baiting Eli up for an ambush the first time and it seems he did a pretty fair job of ambushing him the second time. I'm now on a mission. Next time I'll be holding it sideways a using something with a little more reach. Ever seen anything like this? [/QUOTE]
