We have a Schnauzer that howls all night when we put him in his kennel. He’s far from a Coyote.
This dog the article is about is definitely a mix of something, and I’d say as one of the other posters probably a Whippet, or a Greyhound mix.
In his unkempt condition it’s difficult to figure what he/she is. So ugly it’s cute. I’d love to have it, but too old, and sick for anymore critters beyond what we have.
Couldn’t you put your poor ol’ schnauzer in some classier digs so he wouldn’t have anything to howl about? I did break one of my dogs from howling at the coyotes by rigging a water bucket over his house, which he got on top of to howl, and pulling a jerk-string whenever he lit it up. He filed a complaint but he quit talking to the coyotes.
