Use your dog for coyote bait?

RE: Use your dog for coyote bait?
What's wrong with using your own kid as bait. My 20 month old son comes in handy in baggin those 13 foot Louisiana gators. Of course, re-teaching him to walk on that wooden leg is a headache.
Seriously though,my Father swears that a pack of coyotes will sometimes send a female in heat up to someone's yard to lure theirdog away so that the pack can kill it. However, if i was a male coyote around a female in heat, i don't think that i would be thinking that clearly.

everyone has their own opinion, but Mike kills more coyote in a year then you've ever seen... Bubba loves his job and does it well... how is that lazy or irresponsible?...
using a dog to draw in yotes is just plain lazy and irresponsible.

using a dog is lazy? like for coon or cat or bear or hog or rabbit or pheasant or quail or duck? its not lazy just another way to get the job done.

RE: Use your dog for coyote bait?
I have to agree with coyote stalker!! all you guys have forgotten about the original post, it says to bring your dog out (make sure it is leashed) was how the original post was written! now, if you wanna say "what about bird, bear, coon, duck dogs" there is a big diffrence these dogs are not leashed and are trained for a specific job! Now there are special yote dogs, but thats a big diffrence between a leashed dog that is a sitting duck and a big dog that is trained and knows how to handle itself in a specific situation! I see to many risks in this kind of hunting, Now you can laugh at my earlier posts but dont give me that crap that i must be joking when i say "what if you miss a shot and the coyote gets at your dog" EVERYONE misses at some point and DUDES I am SURE you have missed way more shots than you will ever admit.. But like stalker said, if it works for you then have a ball. BUT I myself think it is a lazy and irresponsible way to hunt and would never put my springer spaniel into harms way. If i cant shoot coyote by using calls or DEAD bait, well then I guess I just have to get em next time or try a new area. GOOD LUCK to all you guys and have a great new year!!!!!!

My brother has a border collie that he uses, he happens to mind better than most kids I know especially his. Those coyotes just come in bristled up ready to fight and defend their territory while the dog just sits there looking at them normally sits him about 20 yards from us. The funny thing is that the dog must know what is going to happen, he just sits there which normally provides a great standing shot less than 100 yards. Very good kill percentage there. Then Mr. Collie has his fun after the coyote has been shot

When he releases him he will track him down or just wrestle him around a little bit. However, last year my brother knocked down a big dog he made it to a briar patch. The Collie went in he soon came out and decided to bark at him from outside the briar patch. This one was not DEAD yet
The dog seems to love it. To me it is kind of like taking you son or daughter hunting, they like to go to. I know the dog would prefer to be their instead of back at home.
