ha, well I didn't care about anything else, but the dog made me mad as [beeep]..
As for the chasing the tail around use the fishing rod, or stick trick.. Tie it with some rope (about 5 feet) to a stick and then think about the command you want to use to tell the dog to look for coyotes and say that as he chases it. Lots of praise. They will get fast and it's a good way to excercise the pup, so they sleep, when they are young, and helps them learn to stop, lunge, and just be fast on their feet.
I would also hide the tail in the yard somewhere, give another command.. ( drag it around and then stuff it into something) and let them find it. good game to play, and lets them learn to find coyotes, great for when you start taking them hunting. Letting them find the dead ones saved me a lot of time. I would also shoot to get a runner. I know some don't like that, but I was training that dog, and it's better training to not always have a dead right there.
I would look for a collar now, so they get used to it.. (get the one that vibrates not beep) then as you play, and train to heel, and come, use the vibrate button at the same time. That blows the minds of people at the dog park.. When the dogs are wrestling and running, you just push the vibrate button and the dog comes right back. You don't look like the moron chasing their dog. It's good to let them run off and play and wrestle, give them a few minutes, and then hit the button to have them come back. Before long she would stand near me, then chase after the other dogs, and wrestle, then come back to me with no input. (perfect) Another reason for the dog park at least once or twice a week was to practice wrestling, wear them out, and get used to not biting domestic dogs. She did get rough on a German Sheperd once (It looked like a coyote to me too)
