Stalking our dog

by Pat
(Belleville, Ontario, Canada)

I live on the edge of Belleville, Ontario.

One night I heard my dog barking frantically, and when I went to take a look, there was a Coyote 60 yards from my dog, just past a small clearing in the forest behind my home.

It was standing still staring at the dog, who was losing it by then. It didn't scatter until I whistled.

It's a good thing my dog was leashed, this thing was much bigger than I would've thought Coyotes are - the size of a full grown German Shepherd.

To this day, I don't leave my dog alone for too long, she still hears something in the woods from time to time.
