One got my moms toy poodle when she let out to use the bathroom a few years ago in North Mississippi. It dropped it as she chased after it, and the dog died in her arms
Poodles are wonderful pets. Have only had small ones, Not the toy size ones. Too small. They can not protect themselves. Standard is a bit large for a house dog. MOO
About a 9 to 11 pound dog is my preference. Simply wonderful dogs.
My yard has a 6 foot fence but I have seen a coyote sitting on the topof the fence a time or two. so I fear allowing the 9 lb poodle to go out in the evening without me. The coyote size is unknown, guessing about 12 - 15 lbs/ but that’s strictly a guess.
I do not like killing living creatures. We can take life, but only God has given life. And yes I do eat meat, chicken, fish, etc.
A neighbor has a small dog that was on their porch. 4 coyotes lured it out and attacked it. The owner was at the kitchen table and heard the commotion and got to his dog just in time. However the dog ended up needing about 120 stitches and it will now forever be extra timid and afraid.
These coyotes lured the doh away for lunch.
They come I my yard and Daisy & Jasmine will have them for a snack.
They are all over around here as they take a route between my house and my neighbors to get ti the creek in the Summer dry Months.
My GSs keeps them and everything else out of our yard.
