The Editor,
I was walking my puppy down Fernway Street on Heritage Mountain in Port Moody on June 27 at about 8 p.m. when a coyote came up from behind and attacked my dog by the neck.
Fortunately, my dog was on his leash and I screamed and yanked back. The coyote dropped my dog but a second coyote appeared. I was screaming my head off when a neighbour came out and helped to chase them off and walked us home.
Guinness was not injured. We are both shaken from the experience. Please be careful when out walking your pet.
