I see about two law enforcement cars a year passing by. I only hunt on private land anyway. Not a problem. Farmers call me from three counties to hunt coyotes.

I wouldn't use a dog as a decoy

It seems to me I read something a few years ago about using a dog for coyote hunting.
Was a female Black Lab IIRC. The dog would venture out a 100 or more yards and lure them in, then draw them toward it's owner, staying far enough away from the yotes to avoid getting jumped. It was pretty interesting. |

You're gonna wind up shooting your dog on accident.

or alternatively: a coyote does get the jump and then you're too far away to help and you cant shoot b/c you cant accurately shoot at 2 fighting animals. you either shoot and kill your AKC (AKA expensive) dog or the coyote rips your dogs throat out because its a lot lower and faster and meaner b/c its a wild animal and not a domesticated animal. yotes aint frisbees.

I think you need to hunt the yotes and leave the dog at home...

Go to The Coyote Gods website and poke around their forum. They use airedales, but you can probably get some answers there.

+1 I can't think of a way to use a big black lab for coyote hunting. There are other sports though, rally obedience, Retrieving challenges, Dock Dog, Tracking in general. Patty |

They are great for retrieving doves, if you shoot them.

As you said, that is the problem. Buy a remington 870 and a few cases of steel and bird shot and go do something your new best friend will LOVE!!! |

I agree with the above - Labs aren't built for Coyote hunting, sounds like a waste of time and effort and your dog's well being. You could easily wind up with an injured or dead lab, and no coyote. Labs aren't really effective biters. They're strong and tireless, but not built for combat....and hunting coyotes may come to that.
Just enjoy a great pet - and black labbies are great pets. FWIW, I've been hunting yotes for a long time, and I've NEVER had a need for a dog. Try a wounded rabbit call, and stay still and upwind. |
