Coyote Attack In Warren Leave Senior Pup Clinging To Life - Send A Prayer, Please

A coyote attacked a 13-year-old dachshund in Warren, Michigan. Steven Payok, Bella’s dad, told reporters that she suffered serious wound to her throat and back.

Bella had gotten off her leash, and a coyote pounced! The coyote dragged her into the woods, luckily Steve’s son was in hot pursuit and got the coyote to drop Bella. But, the damage had been done. No one is sure how long the coyote has been in the area, and there is cause for concern.

There are children that have a bus stop near where Bella was attacked. Steve is urging all his neighbors to be alert and vigilant when outdoors. Doctors have repaired all the damage, but they cannot say if Bella will survive the devastating attack or not. When you have a moment, say a prayer for Bella and her family. If you live near a wooded area, keep your pets safe!
