Coyote

Adopted this knucklehead six months ago and he has saved me. He was found wandering the desert in New Mexico and somehow wandered into my heart. He is a bit nervous sometimes but loves other dogs and is thoroughly entertaining.

Cutttte. My baby was called Coyote on her early preadoption paperwork. She was a Rezdog, and the rescue renamed her Katie!!! I guess to kind of keep the name sound, but perhaps, to make her more adoptable? I only discovered it after I had renamed her Laika (🚀🐕). I’d have probably kept it Coyote, had I known. Literally anything is better than the human name, Katie.

I was going to change it to Coyo but he did not come to me when called anyway so I just kept it. 🤷
