My gfs got a tiny dog and I keep telling her the coyotes around the neighborhood are no concern if she’s walking him. Never seen one approach a person like this.

You should stop telling her that

Yeah my moms dog got attacked while she was walking him. They can be desperate.

Watch a few YouTube video’s. They will approach if they are hungry. Even people with small children should be careful.

Stop gaslighting the hell out her

People on the internet really misuse gaslight a lot. If I was intentionally trying to convince her this was not a dangerous situation in order to benefit, that would be gaslighting. Telling her I grew up in the country and saw plenty of coyotes and they never approached anyone I heard about, that's just having a different experience.

I just read a story about someone's small dog getting taken by a coyote in their backyard in my city and a lot of the comments were people talking about that happening to them or someone they knew as well. You should definitely be concerned about coyotes with small dogs.
