Though Coyotes exist in my area, I would never have to deal with them attacking. My Dogs are XXvery alert, and would be alarming well before any such threat even reached the property. I usually deal with them at about 300-400 yards. Used to be up toward 600, but my eyes aren't what they used to be.
Don't have to worry about My Adult Female Becca engaging a Possum. Female Yorkies are not usually "fighters". She will (and has) held the Possum at bay, called for the Pack, and wagged her tail vigorously as she saw her Alpha Male beat the Possum up. I know it sounds funny, but, this HAS happened !
