The smaller dog cowered; the larger one tried to rip the leash from my hand to take care of the interloper. I hauled both dogs home at a dead run.<br />The next morning the coyote was back, this time stalking me. I launched another dead run.<br />On day three I found the remains of a cat on the lawn and abandoned the early morning walk. There's no glory in a close encounter of lethal kind that could have been prevented.Carolyn J.
