A surveillance video captured a coyote attacking a family's dog in Pinecrest, prompting the family to warn other pet owners to be cautious.
The incident occurred on Tuesday afternoon when the family's 10-year-old French bulldog, Lola, was outside in the backyard. The coyote suddenly charged at her, but the dog's owners, Daniella and Vicente, intervened after hearing Lola's cries for help.
“She comes here, he creeps up, and he runs at her,” said Vicente. “She flips upside down and then we made a noise and he let her go, he was probably going to drag her back there,”
Daniella expressed her concern, stating that if she and her boyfriend hadn't been present, the coyote might have taken Lola. Her mom, Denise, was also home and heard the commotion.
