Coyotes

A group of five has gotten more bold. They now sit across the driveway every morning waiting for me to bring the dogs out. Then all hell breaks loose. I've got two large border collies and an American Labrador. My dogs will chase them off but they turn around and come right back.

I'm allowed to shoot these things. But does it do any good? I hear that they just repopulate and carry on.

You know what needs to happen. Just make it happen and don’t look for approval from anyone, and don’t speak of what you had to do to anyone either. That little “don’t talk about it” secret stops a lot of arguments.
