This is the question we've been bouncing around lately. Do coyotes and domestic dogs crossbreed? I've killed several coyotes that have subtle markings like that of a domestic dog such as white patches on their forhead, black feet or a ringless tail and was wondering if that was some sort of genetic impurity that came from domesticated bloodlines somewhere.
Are there any experts out there on this subject? I've heard them called coydogs but I've also seen pictures of these so called "coydogs" that look like a joke, half french poodle and half coyote. Thats not the kind of crazy mythical creatures I'm dealing with. We have a HUGE population of stray muts and wild dogs around here and it has often been rumored that they crossbreed with coyotes. Is this true?
