my dog is only 150, he lost 20 lbs here at the new place... however ALL the coyotes run when they see him. it's pretty comical too. my dog is kinda blind and mostly sent oriented... the fucking coyotes run around him like in a cartoon... he looks one way a coyote dashes by behind him about 10-15 yards away.... it's pretty funny.

on 2 occasions me and the dog had to rescue people with little dogs... they would be standing in the park holding their little animal yelling while being circled by coyotes...( only 2 or 3, kinda scary if you aren't used to it I guess )

my dog immediately drops into a dead run at the coyotes, which they kinda think is a joke, they trot off looking over their shoulders until they notice my dog is like a line backer.. and he in not stopping.... then they all haul ass and stop fucking around...

having a chance to interact with the natural world is pretty awesome. I have a relationship with a conspiracy of ravens, it's a raven thing... I had a great relationship wit the ravens at the old place... new raven same deal though. they let me know when someone is coming by flying above them, calling to me. at the old place the conspiracy would follow me to the park and scout out the coyotes. when the coyotes are real hungry, they will hunt in the day time.


I'm feeding all the darn birds and humming birds, wondering what that will be like this winter... and I'm working on settling a 'deer' family in that has been in the area. I think it will be cook to have some deer up here and my dog will protect them from the coyotes....


my end goal is a couple of ponies up here in a few years to ride up and down the hill... what a fucking hoot, right?


BTW my fav dog is a pug... only last about a day up here though.... off to get 2 MRI's, one on each shoulder.... I have valium…
Luckily for me, all I have to worry about are magpies, cats, hedgehogs, fox and deer.
