| Coydogs will eat your cats and possibly human toddlers if given the chance. I lived a mile from the road in the woods of western Maine for a few years. Coydogs run in packs. A solitary coydog probably poses little threat to a grown adult human, but in a pack, I would be cautious. They like to hang out near brooks and streams at night (probably because other creatures go there for water, too.) They will hunt down and kill deer. I hate them and wish they were all dead. I think one got my cat last Sunday. The cat is 11 yrs. old and not as spry as he once was. |

| I have a 22 year old coydog, (one of the benefits of hybrid vigor, shes never been sick, EVER) she was very skittish and somewhat aggressive when i got her as a small child. we thought she was just a kinda ugly mutt. over the years she has turned into a wonderful companion , but is still a little wierd around strangers. she is very protective , and i believe her to be a good judge of character. she has never harmed anyone or anything, so to say a "Coydogs will eat your cats and possibly human toddlers if given the chance" is just a really ignorant statement. We have had over 30 rescue dogs and cats in our homes as i was growing up , she has a very strong maternal instinct , she even was a "camp Couselor" to the small dog group at a doggie daycare i worked at. She was very independent , hyper and seemingly confused as a teen doggie, but i quickly learned how to manage an alpha position above her, and she drastically had a change in behavior. i wouldn't recommend a coydog to an inexperienced dog owner. and i would research both dog psycology and coyote behavior if you want, have or think you have one. coydogs CAN be great dogs for the right people, but remember they are scavengers, so even the best behaved have a tendency to go through garbage if they can get to it, and if they're like mine, Dig fairly elaborate dens all over your yard , which can pose a threat to small children or other pets due to the possibility of collapse. just like with any other canid , strong leadership, defined and persistant expecations, adequate exercise and SOCIALIZATION, can prevent any behavior problems, be it a hybrid or not. also if you truly believe you have a coydog, most universities will gladly examine or genetically test your dog for free. ^__^ i hope this helps!!! |

| I have recently found a stray female coydog. She loves to be around people and is very sweet. She is an albino, deaf and partially blind. i believe her to be around 2 years old or so. I have not yet introduced her to my 3 year old cat until I do some research on their behavior. Any help and insight would be greatly appreciated |
