Title: Dog or Coyote
Post by: Gutpile on June 28, 2008, 08:22:43 PM: This is being posted as a black coyote. I'm saying dog, but being called dumb a$$. So am I wrong? This is a dog to me.

There is an all black coyote around my place but it only seems to show up when I dont have my rifle. The last time I saw it I was setting my 400 yd target up and he ran between me and my gun. That will teach me to leave my rifle on the rest while I set a target. D-oh! Now I have to wait until winter when his coat is prime to try for him again. I want to have a lifesize mount done.

Post by: MountainWalk on June 28, 2008, 11:47:30 PM: i think a full body mount featuring an all black coyote would be as pretty as it gets...

Post by: PolarBear on June 28, 2008, 11:55:48 PM: Bucklucky, you never know, you are well within his range but I would bet that he stays on my side of the river most of the time.

Post by: MIKEXRAY on June 29, 2008, 11:07:34 AM: When I lived in Central California in the 70's we had a big Shepard / rot mix & was a big ass dog. About dark the yotes would come up and scream for him and he would tear ass off of the front porch. He would come home in the morning worn out. We saw plenty of yotes that were a little bigger with rot eye brows. That was the best damn dog I've ever seen or heard about since. Loyal, loving, protective he had it all. Apparently he just liked to get a little wild puss ? Who am I to criticize. :chuckle:

I've been thinking of that dog since I posted, I miss that dog.

Post by: WAcoyotehunter on June 30, 2008, 07:46:24 AM: dog- probably a german shepard mix?
Title: Re: Dog or Coyote
Post by: tlbradford on June 30, 2008, 07:56:31 AM: :dunno: Not a full blooded coyote for sure. I lean towards a hybrid, but it could just as easily be a dog.
Title: Re: Dog or Coyote
Post by: Intruder on June 30, 2008, 09:00:10 AM: Don't look like any yote I've ever seen.... I guess it could be a hybrid, but I think it's your garden variety Heinz 57 mix with Shepard in it.

Title: Re: Dog or Coyote
Post by: WildBear on July 05, 2008, 05:08:09 PM: Sure looks like a dog to me! Probably calling it a Coyote to cover their Ass for shooting it!
Title: Re: Dog or Coyote
Post by: demontang on July 06, 2008, 08:52:43 PM: It looks like my dog, it could be a mix :dunno: I have seen one black coyote and one that was almost as red as a fox, didnt have a good shot either time :bash:
Title: Re: Dog or Coyote
Post by: PolarBear on July 06, 2008, 09:05:01 PM: I saw the all black coyote around my place again yesterday evening and this morning. It was really tough not shooting it but it is so pretty that I want to wait until it has its winter coat.
Title: Re: Dog or Coyote
Post by: Ray on July 06, 2008, 11:22:14 PM: The one I took a shot at with my bow a few weeks back is all black. Ugly and mangy looking fellow.
