Amazing dogs on a coyote hunt.

Those dogs sure can run!  Wish we could use decoy dogs

I've known a couple of guys that made a lot of money back in the high fur price days running grey hounds on fox and coyotes.

Videos of chase hounds and decoy dogs savaging/killing coyotes is one of the reasons it is now illegal to have a dog present when hunting coyotes, as the law is written it is illegal to shoot a coyote while you are bird hunting if you have a dog present.  When WA passed the dog law I spent some time trying to get it changed at least to just pursuit , no go they didn't want to see dogs used in anyway to take coyotes.  My pointer used to lay along side of me on a coyote stand and keep an eye on the up wind side of the stand with his nose.  I'd put a red vest on and load the shotgun with birdshot and we'd hunt birds on the way back from the stand.  Now I have to leave him in the truck and that just pisses him off.

Now...using a dog to decoy the yote in further....that is pretty awesome.

my Terrier just lured 2 in a couple days ago. He was unaware of the one closing on his backside when the one in front of him fell. Dog #2 has a bullet in him from 510 yds and limped off.
Another pair will fill this slot soon.

I would love to use dogs on a hunt like this. It is probably the most humane way of getting yotes. You can decide to let them go or skin them with this method. It could be one of the most effective ways of getting rid of excessive song dogs too - if that is the goal (though you can't ever get rid of all of them).
Too bad 'hunting dogs' are used as a psychological excuse for anti hunters to get their corrupt fangs into killing our heritage. It's too bad many hunters go along with that corruption. Too bad there are so many hunters who don't understand logical hunting methods......
You get my point.

WOW , They are fast .
I think one on one would be interesting to see , I bet Old Whiley would win that battle .

It's nice to see dogs used for their intended purpose. 

BTW- that type of hunting is NOTHING like running hounds for lions or bears.
