| We shoot them because we have to protect our livestock. No, it's not fun, but that's just how it goes here.

| Wow, after reading all these posts, I am glad I live where I live. Even in the country we don't see coyotes, fox, or any big birds of prey. We will see rabbits and small birds with an exception of an owl once in a great while, you just don't see them here very often. The most we would have to worry about is stray dogs. I guess we are lucky that we don't have any wildlife here that could hurt our furbabies.

| One thing we do, and it may sound silly, but we leave a radio on at all times at the barn. So far, knock on wood, it seems to be working!

| Unfortunately, we see them quite frequesntly here. There are so many new subdivisions going up in our area that they are running out of places to go...I think the creek at the entrance to our neighborhood is their favorite place to drink--I see them crossing the road there alot. There is a pack of them that lives on the the mountain near the at the edge of our neighborhood. (As in, the Mt. behind the houses right across the st. from us.) We hear them at night alot. They 'travel'--will hear them a few nights, then not hear them again for a month or so. |

Donating YT 14K Club Member | You have a chain link fence? If I were you, I'd put up an electric wire about 6 inches from the top of your fence. Relatively cheap to do and hopefully, it'll keep them out. They will be able to sense/smell it and that should deter them.

You really have to be careful now. You were worried about the hawks last week now coyotes. Don't let your babies out for one minute alone. I saw one where I live several months ago. I worry when I walk Bud at night but was told they will not approach him as long as I am there. You poor thing after the last scare you must be going crazy with worry. | |

Read this. I think it will change your mind. I'm nervous walking with Kacee in the very early morning hours or very late evening hours and I try to keep my head on a swivel. I can see all around where we walk. That's a good thing. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=23643

I am sorry, but I can't help it. Please tell me you at least had the mower going in 'rabbit' speed rather than 'turtle.' | |
