if i had more open country to run a greyhound, then they would be able to catch a yote. the land around here is mostly wooded, so you need scent hounds. alot of people in the mid-west run stags for yotes, but still run 3-4 at a time to dispatch a coyote. as for smaller dogs they are useally dinner for coyotes. around here the coyotes kill labs, retreivers and terriers alot. a person down the way just had 2 of their jack russells killed by a yote the other day. it`s all about the chase, not the kill.
