Coyotes are territorial and may aggressively approach dog walkers – especially in the spring/summer when raising young.
Dogs should be leashed or under close supervision at all times while outside.
IF APPROACHED, DO NOT RUN
Calmly leave the area
To frighten coyotes: shout, wave your arms and act aggressive, throw objects
Do NOT pick up your dog
