Coy-dogs I’m less sure. Crossing with dogs tends to mitigate wolves, and I suspect it also settles down coyotes. Some people insist that coy-dogs are okay.
But wolves have impressive raw intelligence, with some estimates as high as equal to a five year old child or better. Coyotes are known for their tactical smarts, in that they will scheme new survival and hunting strategies.
Even American Indians had the sage advice to “Never trust a coyote.”
Having met some 98% wolf-dogs, I can attest that they are impressively smart creatures.
The American Indian trickster-god was a coyote. They knew whereof they spoke.
