Last saturday morning, our 6 month old GSD "Little Bear" was attacked by coyotes. He is still at the vet with a large wound at the base of his tail. X-rays also show a broken tail. Two different vets have confirmed it was a canine attack. He also had a canine puncture wound in his muzzle. (some of you will remember this picture I shared in 2011.) It was taken the exact same time of year.
Our Yellow Lab "Swamper" was attacked about 3 months ago as well. His wounds were mostly superficial but did warrant a trip to the vet for a rabies booster and antibiotics.
About 2012 our Beagle disappeared without a trace.
I am up writing this early this morning because I heard the yotes at about 5am. ("Swamper" was wanting out, he was inside)
I haven't gotten any pics on the game cam this year of a Yote. (I had moved the camera) But, think I have found a track. I am also wondering if my baiting the deer isn't causing the Yotes to come on the property?
I also found a carcass of a fresh kill that appears to be canine. (Will update thread with pics, when it gets light outside)
I need a plan to deal with these critters. Some background on my place. It is a small livestock farm. (Horses, donkey, and a Bull) It's only about 8 acres but borders an irrigation ditch and an 80 acre field of what was millet.
