I believe hetraps has had several

My dad had a pet coyote for a couple of years. He was a really neat pet. Crazy thing was, dad hunted coyotes with hounds and this coyote would sleep with them. They never once bothered him. Dad lived in the country, he came home one day and the coyote had been shot right in his front yard. Never found out who did it.

glenn sterling had one when i worked adc with him,,he used it for a decoy ....didnt last long...unfortunately it usually doesnt turn out well for the animal. I had a wolf once and 2 red fox...among others. Always ended badly for them. I dont count the dociles like skunks

You'll have to pardon my animosity for coyotes..July 5 2018

waylon has really turned out to be an awesome pet> I can't get any of my videos to load on here... if anyone would like to see them, i could text you...


So all you nay sayers... WERE COMPLETELY WRONG ABOUT HAVING A COYOTE AS A PET!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA... I KNEW IT

I hope it does work out for ya but I also hope no kids are around when it decides not to be a pet anymore. I've not personally tried it but I do have one of those live free die hard buddies that rustles up spring pups thinking he will tame one. I think he's 0 for 10.

I thought I remember of another person on here this last spring with a coyote pup

We have a coyote named Katie. She is house broken. Last week, she layed on the couch with me with two cats and a dog, while I watched the Ohio State game. She mostly acts like a dog. Katie is very affectionate. She likes having her ears and belly rubbed. She will stand on the legs on one side of her body and roll into you, so you can rub her belly easier. She just had her first deer bone. She gets along fine with our dogs and house cats. She also leaves the outside cats she knows alone. She does not like cats and dogs she does not know. She will sleep with our house cats and dogs.

I am still in favor of hunting and trapping coyotes.

I thought it was you Keith, I was looking through your posts but couldn't find it.

Katie is really infatuated with sticks right now. She tries to pickup and carry every stick she finds. She'll get 4 or 5 slender sticks in her mouth at a time and constantly switches sticks when she finds one she thinks is better.

She loves throwing toys and chasing them.

When we had snow, Katie would jump in the air and pounce, like she was trying to catch mice.

It's a pain walking her on warm wet nights because she won't potty, because she keeps trying to catch nightcrawlers. She also will dig and eat grubs, if given a chance to. She catches and eats moths, butterflies and other flying insects.

Katie fetches frisbees pretty well, but only catches a few. She has never attempted to run away off leash. She will run laps and tease you with something she likes. She wants the dogs and cats to chase after her prize. She will lay toys on top of the cats and then run away, run back, pickup the toy and drop it on the cat again.

Caught a baby coyot by hand once while hog hunting. Still had embiliCal chord. Caught it for my brother cause the day before I accidentally ran over his dog in the driveway.it was the ONEREYEST critter I ever been around! Took inside and watched tv lol. Would do fine till you tryed to pet it and it would eat u up! Never took its eyes off ya.seemed sweet till ya wasn't looking and then it would try to chew on ya lol. The thing was so mean we had to let it go. And that's dang bad cause we pritty mean ourselves lol

wild animal should stay wild

Check with Siegfried & Roy... I think they had a pet

katie looks to be at least part dog. id be curious to know if she only comes in heat once a year in late January early February or if she comes in more often or at a different time. seems like she came from a "breeder"?

Id be more afraid of peoples insecure dogs... than this coyote. My wife runs a dog boarding business.... i'll tell you what... yellow labs are the most psychotic animal as far as any canine is concerned .... its all how the animal is raised. This coyote is free range... yes, you heard me right... he comes and goes as he pleases. Never leaves the yard unless he is with one of us or follows my border collie. He has everything he needs... so there is a small amount of instinct... in there, somewhere.... but as far as the "wild" coming out... you guys are so wrong!!! the wild is taught... the wild is a circumstance... far more than any one would imagine. Till you raise one for yourself.... you ll never understand.

What I believe is no matter what the wild animal owners ( other than skunk ) wild canine, will Only post the Good stuff online...when something bad happens they will not talk about it. Many have tried and been successful for a "time" then........................................
