@@joez.9932 That doberman would of fcked those coyotes up. They're not going to risk life and limb to try and snag a larger cousin of theirs, when they can prey and scavenge on much smaller game without risking injury. The doberman is not only taller and at least 50 pounds heavier, they're also a more aggressive breed, than coyote is species, with a much stronger bite Even female dobermans outweigh the largest male coyotes by 25 pounds.
That doberman is not scared one bit, he's cautious.. But also curious..but at the same time disciplined and intelligent...that's why he's probably still living today..
Definitely a good well trained dog. But the coyote; or should I say coyote's?! Bold! and 5 of them?! Not very afraid are they? Thats not a good sign. If im not mistaken they, like most dogs have an alpha, and territory claiming instincts. If its not established and sometimes unpleasantly, they'll think nothing of encroachimg on your territory. A friend of our family"s who lived in the mountains in Northern Cal., let her Doberman out to "go potty" and a few moments later, heard the most awful, fearful sound. They turned the outdoor light on to find a coyote pack had surrounded her dog, who was also highly trained, and pee'd himself in fear being surrounded by them right outside the door. It was the sight of a human that scared them all off. She ended up getting 2 more Dobermans, and it never happened again. And having a rifle, was really the only solution to keeping the livestock safe as well. The things most politicians dont want to consider, is sometimes its necessary to have a firearm, and not everyone who owns one is an irresponsible whacko that just likes killing because they want attention or are mentally unstable. I cant think of a more perfect example of why firearms should NOT be outlawed. People are tired of living in fear as it is. Here, especially, shows how bold the predators are. You can hear the sound of vehicles in the backround, so it has to be close to where people are living. What if it were 2 kids just walking home from playing ball, and they were confronted by these coyotes? Running isnt always a good idea, lest you be ankle or calf bitten. Kids should at the very least be given pepper spray they can take with them anywhere and everywhere they go. Its better than nothing, and could save them from an attack. Just scary how bold they are. Another experience with coyotes that happened, was when my cat was killed and taken off by coyotes. It broke my heart and made me ill. I know its nature's way and everything, but i will never hesitate to shoot one on my property because if they're not fearful of you and your territory, you'll become a victim to them and they'll continuously encroach what you think is your boundry of safety, until you no longer feel safe at your own home. They are surely nothing to mess with, and should never be given an oppertunity inside your personal space. It really is literally a "them or you" situation. This was a good video for people to see. It confirmed and reminded me of what they are capable of. If you live by the foothills or in the mountains, having a few large, well trained dogs, does alot for your security and protection,and perhaps a rifle and a shotgun. I've also noticed if I make them (the coyotes) afraid of me, they really keep a good 100yrds or more distance away, then eventually I'd stop seeing their tracks. If they get scared off well enough, it'd be doubtful we'd ever see them again. And we actually never did. I attribute it to my scaring them off and having 3 German Shepards. They'll eventually give upbecause its too hard to scavenge for food when they can always find an easier house to steal from..
Allison Colby I REALLY don’t think that most sensible people (no matter what part of the political spectrum they’re coming from), has a problem with anyone out in the country owning whatever firearm they choose to.
@@doeman35 ~I really hope your right...All the protesting and the way some representatives are calling for a New Z. style all out ban, which seems to me if they did that would mean everywhere, and who knows if theres any exception or what a "ban" would include? Who knows, after all, the media hypes everything up and lies too much about everything as it is. But still, I really do hope you're right.
There is an incredible amount of subtle detail in this video. The coyotes are dogs, as is the Doberman, and they demonstrate many of the same behaviors, but they come from opposite ends of the dog thinking spectrum. The coyotes never know when their next meal is. It's kind of hard to imagine, but coyotes are usually hungry, almost never satiated, and may not have eaten in days. The Doberman takes his food for granted. He's only checking out the coyotes like he would any other strange dogs he might meet out on the trail, even if it's a pack. He's physically larger than any of the individual coyotes, and doesn't associate himself with being prey, so he boldly moves toward the pack of coyotes, but mindful that his pack is him and his owner, so he must not move too far from whom he as a Doberman feels the necessity to guard. He's probably been around other groups of dogs, who without any team/pack experience have never ganged up on another dog. If he were to actually have a coyote mealtime interaction and survive, he would not be out in front checking things out because he would know that they mean him harm, and that is definitely what the coyotes have in mind. The coyotes don't have time to play. It takes energy and time away from finding food. In the video, you can see that they are not in the least bit intimidated by the Doberman and his owner. Look at their tails. They are never scared, not even when they appear to retreat, which they are not doing. They are enticing the Doberman to come after them. As for play, The coyote pack has assigned roles based on hierarchy, so there is nothing happenstance in what each of them is doing. There is an ongoing attempt to flank and get behind the Doberman and potentially even his human owner. There is rarely all 5 coyotes visible, and there may even have been others that were never seen that could have been off to the Doberman's left. Which direction was the wind from? Unseen coyotes downwind from the Doberman are not known to the Doberman and could be lying in wait as the others work their prey. The coyotes were aware of the Doberman and his owner long before they encountered each other. Coyotes move quietly, constantly listening and checking the wind as they hunt. That's how they catch prey; by surprise. Some of the coyotes are continually disappearing off to the side and are detected by the Doberman moving down to its right as they attempt to come in from behind to have it encircled. They are definitely working their prey. Towards the end of the video, when the human owner calls his dog back, you can see one of the coyotes kicking dirt, which is a dominant behavior and goes back to them not being intimidated. Fascinating video, but truly a dangerous situation.
Nah, a defensive territorial display of their group in force, not luring, but "go away wolf-thing". Likely nearby den. The kicking in the dirt leaves scent marks. Could be dangerous, I think I've seen video of four coyotes going after an actual wolf in Yellowstone -- without a human backing it up of course -- but this was a family of coyotes defending its home from an intruder.
@@normmackey8019 I live in coyote country, North inland San Diego County. I've cornered them in my completely fenced yard. I've been awakened in the middle of the night by one attempting to get my cat. I chased it back over the fence. I have a photo of one taken from my kitchen when I am looking at the neighbor's front yard, and where, in broad daylight, it is digging for a gopher. My family routinely sees them in the evening on the cul-de-sac that we live on. I've seen adults with pups, both small and larger, in the fields across from where I've lived, and where my cousin lives. . . My point? . . . In 40 years of living in rural San Diego County, and having owned Dobermanns for over 35 of those years, and walked, hiked, and biked the countryside from Penasquitos Canyon, to Julian, to Cuyamaca State Park, to Daly Ranch, to Dos Picos Park, to Balboa Park in downtown San Diego City with my Dobermanns, I have encountered more coyotes than I could ever count, including 2 that were within 2 feet of me and one of my Dobermanns, and . . .YET, . . . I have never been anywhere near a den, that I know of. . . . I have found dog trails that were under the over-growth, far removed from any regular human contact location, that I, as an adult would be hard pressed to travel down on my hands and knees, and that I imagine might lead to where there might be a den, but such dog trails were never anywhere near a clear over-head trail. I was traversing heavy brush without a dog to get to a location I could see in the distance, and decided to try to "line of sight" over-land it, without any brush cutting tools. . . Since a den is their home, and where they are vulnerable, and where they would be trapped, from my experience, they don't set up camp where they are going to encounter non-family members. . . They do however travel far and wide, relatively speaking, usually with family near by, in search of food, and they are "pack" animals, in that they hunt together. . . To think that opportunistic wild animals that don't have a "meal plan" are just "defending" the homestead, when they don't know where or when the next meal is, is a bit of a stretch. They daily balance risk verses reward. Coyotes eat carrion, and would most certainly kill, hide, and eat later anything they feel they can take on. The idea that you would feel the need to opine in such an adamant manner is funny to me.:"NAH, ..." . . . Ooooh Oooh Kaaay. Happy New Year.

coyotes rarely attack prey that can hurt them. coyotes are fragile and they know it. Even with the pack they would have lost at least one member to a dog like that. I've been around them for years and they have never attacked a dog larger than themselves, at least in my experience. The Doberman wouldn't "win" a fight against 5 coyotes but at least one or two would be injured enough not be able to get their next meal. They know it, its genetic.
@@chrishayes5755 Agreed there us absolutely no reason to fire at the coyotes .They are just doing what comes natural. You are in their domain. Has mankind not destroyed enough of their habitat for our selfish needs. Unless it's lifethreating there is no need for gun play. That's the difference between some one who is mature and responsible with a weapon and someone who is a poster child for liberal anti gun policies.
I dont think there was ever a situation where this particular doberman was in danger. Seems pretty confident he could make quick work out of one or two of these coyotes and thats all it would take really then the rest would likely fall back.
@@sjoauga4561 .... It was just a change of Plans... The coyotes saw the dog wasn't falling for the "Rope-a-Dope", so they went for the "cute-chick" waiting in the bushes gambit. That's why its better to have a "wing Man" he can step in when the Big Brain stops working and the little brain starts drooling .... Dogs figured out that "Human's" are not so bad to hang out with... - The good ones "Know Stuff" - and they feed you everyday too, whats wrong with that?.
Kai Kai wrong,if the owner wasn’t around they would’ve circled the Doberman and pecked him to death.Little nibbles here and there.They go for the Achilles’ tendon so the dog can’t stand then eat them alive from the back
the luring dogs back so can attack them thing is a myth thats never actually been documented in real life. but people keep repeating it as if its common place. based on the body language here, everyone is curious and trying to gather info without getting to close so in danger (hence the approach retreat approach retreat) the dobie was actually a bit playful at one point.
GORGEOUS red boy! 40 years living with Dobes and they still leave me breathless! He did his job beautifully by keeping himself as a barrier, always looking back to you! Fabulous recall with those coyotes peaking his interest! Well done!
"Checking out each other" , That's correct ,problem is that your dog is curious of what they are and the coyotes are curious also,but they're curious as to how your dog would taste.

@@davidortiz3094 Hype? It's a no contest, If you can stomach the carnage, I suggest you take a long hard loook at some videos, where pitbulls destroy most dogs. Greyhounds run down coyotes and kill them in the western states. On the east coast, no coyotes will challenge our foxhounds.
There was a pitbull that killed 9 coyotes. They had to stitch the dog up all over its body from cuts because the owner found it like that when he came and followed his blood up in the mountains and found 9 dead coyotes.
Coyotes don't bait dogs, that's an urban (or I guess rural) legend. Coyotes and dogs are both curious, but coyotes are skittish and a lot of dogs will chase any animal that runs. The coyote gets spooked and runs, and the dog gives chase. The pack sees this as an attack and defends itself. There's no need to contribute malice to it.
@@Atzy There's a pattern that repeats - one coyote is a bit further, challenging the turf instinct of the dog. They do the same with lonely wolves. They run to their pack. And it's not about malice, you're right about that. It's about getting food. And removing a rivaling canine from the vicinity of their territory, also about food, but about mating too. Like all pack animals of the same (or similar) species do: wolves, chimps ... Coyotes when healthy, are skittish, of adult people. But they have snatched small kids, and there's a video where a lone coyite jumped in a frence of 6 foot and counting into a dog park, where it measured eye to eye a pitbull, then, alone decided to go for an attack, which was feints and nibbling the hindlegs of the pit bull, which after first contact realized it's not gonna win the fight and started to retreat, trying to attack when the coyote bit it's ankle, but it was always late and often at the other ankle: left when pitbull turned right and the opposite. 2-3 bites here and there. And then the onwer who had been filming, realized he better intervene, and started shouting. Then the coyote started jogging alertly away, but not back where it came, exited to the side. the way it had just moved in its fight. It glanced the camera man only once just when the shouting start, and it moved away in a rapid jog - so orderly fast, but not in full speed or wasting energy. Wasn't skittish that coyote. The dog ran head a bit down to its owner. It knew it had been a close call. Though it had 15-20 pounds on the coyote. But in their meeting he turned out slower.
Thats what sucks when I am Bow hunting for deer..we cannot carry any firearms into the woods with us if we are bow hunting, would be hard to rapid fire my bow at a pack of coyotes. I walk into the woods in total darkness and know the woods is loaded with them..On occasion we shoot them from the stand if they get close enough
@@keyboardstalker4784 Yes, and when they return the next time, they'll be one less in the pack, and you can shoot another, and repeat the process until they're much fewer.
Yeah coyotes are super cunning. So they were baiting your dog. Normally, one goes forward to kindly invite your dog for a friend follow then .the pack tears him apart. Text book coyote strategy!
@@Rachietutu Yea. Notice how the coyotes in the back were marking their territory by doing this behaviour with their backlegs where they sort of draw lines on the dirt. Somewhat saying "I dare you to cross it" 8:13 is what I'm talking about.
The poise of the Doberman is so impressive. Didn't bark or growl and stayed level headed the whole time. Didn't escalate but didn't back down and maintained a position to protect you. Stay safe.
Doberman's are guardian centric- that's all they care about protecting- they don't want to have a S show- they just want their guardian to remain safe- that's all that matters to them- that's what makes them the most almost dog breed IMHO ; )

Not enough. Even well-trained Dobermans would be pecked to death by a pack of coyotes. Dobermans attack to hurt, Coyotes attack to kill. The Dobermans would be discombobulated and had their tendons torn before they could counter-strike. Game over. Also, this pack wasn't just 5 coyotes, there were definitely more in the bushes waiting to circle the Doberman if he chased the first "friendly looking" 5 coyotes up ahead.
2 Central Asian Shepards [ Alabai ] would have gone right to work with no "checking you out ". 1 CAS would have stood their ground and let the fight come to him/her. The Dobie would have taken one and maybe fought off 2 but the CAS and other land race breeds have been breed for over 3000 years for just such a fight.....to protect their "flock"......including humans. I've seen one at work in Colorado that actually carried the coyote in it's mouth to show off its' prize. Arminian Gampr is very similar to the CAS.
Glad he stayed away and came back on command. Beautiful Doberman. I once had a Doberman-Shepherd mix. Gorgeous, affectionate and a super companion. Atlas looks and acts like a well trained dog. Enjoy him.

Fun fact: killing a coyote or to be more accurate when a coyote comes up" missing " from the pack it triggers of biological response in the female coyotes to have bigger litters.

Lynn Griffith There was coyote that initiated play with my dog. My dog then followed it and was never seen again. Now I make sure my dog is on a leash any time it’s outside.
@@MrFredstt I'm so sorry to hear that. It's never a good idea for a pet to initiate play with a wild animal. All canids are territorial and there have been conflicts between wild and domestic for sure but some were saying"coyotes bait dogs" and that's simply not true. I have 4 small dogs and we have coyotes, owls, hawks, eagles, mountain lions and bears in my area. All of these wild animals can kill a small pet but we coexist with all the amazing wildlife and know all the do's and don'ts. There are fewer and fewer wild places and animals can no longer find homes since humans have taken away almost everything they have. I try to educate as many people as I can and I'm glad you have decided to have your dog on a leash. I don't recommend walking dogs in areas where people have spotted coyotes, especially throughout the spring. This is pup season and they are very protective just as we would be if a stranger is approaching our babies room. Mortality is high among young coyotes, with 50 to 70 percent never reaching adulthood. Each year, 30 to 50 percent of the adult population dies off as well, due to hunting, trapping and vehicles collisions. urbancoyoteinitiative.com/its-coyote-pupping-season-what-you-need-to-know-to-coexist/

@Frank Lopez The Doberman is a proud and noble breed. They can indeed suffer from separation anxiety, but virtually ALWAYS that is from improper care, handling, training, and environment. Atlas is my third Dobie, and first male. He was a bit bullheaded at first until I received proper professional training on how to get him to work for me. Ever since then, he has been a happier and healthier dog thanks to the training. Dobies are not for everyone for sure. They are big and powerful and you must maintain the will to allow him to work, as thats what they want more than anything else. If they become disengaged, and bored with their environment, you end up with behavioral issues that can manifest in many different ways. My boy is a fine example of the breed and I am indeed very proud of him for his accomplishments. In my opinon, aside from common health issues from lousy breeding practices in North America, the Doberman is a superior breed for me.
@Frank Lopez the notion that the "doberman cannot be left alone inside without a crate" is absolutely false. Mine hasn't been in a crate a day in his life and aside from steeling a cheeseburger he's not ever torn anything up.
@Frank Lopez I AM a Doberman owner. Atlas is 5 right now. He's home alone every day during the week from 7a to 3p. If the dog tore your house up, it's YOUR fault for not knowing how to handle and train him. I'm not sure what else to tell you other than you are ignorant to K9 behavior. Do yourself a favor and read a book called "How Dogs Learn". You will understand much more about the issue you are trying to blame on "genetic anomaly".
Not too smart though. Dobes are one of the few breeds substantially faster than Coyotes. That is why Luis Dobermann bred the greyhound into them. To run down the scout and avoid a pack situation. Dobermann spent most of his time tax collecting on horseback and dealt with jackals and wolves. He knew the importance of speed and power in a personal protection animal. Power alone is not enough in the wild. And I have been around enough packs to know that once the Dobe takes down and kills the scout the others will scatter--THEY DO NOT COME AND HELP. They are skittish and rely on ambush tactics. The minute a dog gets the upper hand they flee. But yes, they are baiting the dog. They want him to come after them cautiously so they can attack as a group. Read: Ambush. A well trained Dobe should listen when you say stay.
This dog owner may have control over his dog but at the same time he's playing with fire...these are pack hunters and they are being strategic in luring his dobie
They have absolutely zero interest in confronting me. As soon as I move at all or take a step towards them, they flee. They are a non threat to us. We see them daily now.
@@HighTechCNC I live amongst Bears, Coyotes, and Cougars in the San Gabriel Valley. Most Coyotes are afraid of humans but they will take your dog - if they can. You need to have some pepper spray or something for protection on you when you go hiking. Those Coyotes were trying to ambush your dog.
HighTechCNC: It might depend on how hungry they are. I'm shocked at how close they were to you, not the dog. We lived on ten acres in north Texas and there were many coyotes but they only came out at night. We could hear them at a distance when they'd be in a frenzied attack, yelping all at once. As far as I know, they only went after small prey. Funny thing: we were sitting out back one night having a few beers around a small fire pit and off in the distance near some trees we could see glowing eyes moving back and forth for about 30 minutes watching us. We did have adequate fire power however jic.
@@HighTechCNC Just make sure to yell at them, throw things at them (not to hit them, but near them), etc. They have just as much right to live as we do, but we need to make sure they stay afraid of us.
mimi long, we have a Coyote den at the edge of our neighborhood. Several years ago we had a Coyote jump the chain link fence into our yard. It ran into our Male German Shepherd Angus! Angus didn’t bark, he just hit it wide open. Grabbed it by the neck, shook it once and broke its neck! He the threw it up in the air several times. My next door neighbor saw the Coyote flying up in the air several times and peered over the tall wooden fence to see what was going on. He told everyone about it for several years. I should mention that Angus weighed 143 pounds and was in his prime at the time! He was a gentle giant except when it came to our handicapped daughter. He was like Cujo if anyone got within 50 feet of her.
Coyotes are really beautiful creatures. Had a family of them living in the ravine behind my home. Love how they sing... and love their lovely faces! Taught my dogs to be mindful and careful when we are around them.
What a BEAUTIFUL doberman and very well trained, this a one of a kind video, there is such PEACE and both are calm. God BLESS you and your dog , thank you for sharing.
What a beautiful dog. I love how they are each trying to figure out what each other is. The littermates keep coming to sniff each spot the dog has stepped but if he moves too fast they are running back to the den haha
Geewiz, those coyotes are so smart trying to draw in the dobie. It could have been an ambush, or not. One really does not know for sure. Beautiful dobie and the coyotes are beautiful too. Thanks for sharing.
I worked at a zoo outside of Las Vegas, in the foothills of the Spring Mountains. It was at a place called Bonnie Springs, and there were stables and a restaurant and a mock-up western town with gunfights and hangings, but anyway. There were dogs on the ranch, and coyotes in the desert surrounding it. The coyotes had devised an ingenious way of preying on unwary dogs from the ranch. They would send a female coyote to lure the dog into the desert, where the rest of the pack would attack from out of nowhere. Just like those velociraptors in Jurrassic Park... This is a great video. I love coyotes.
The very first thing that came to mind was how empowering it would have been to have had a pack of dobermans in this situation instead of just one. We used to have a neighbor with a pack of german shepherds. There is power in numbers...especially when they are breeds like doberman pinschers, german shepherds or american pitbulls.
Wow, yeah, I saw it clearly there. When the dog turned his back that coyote was stalking and the other was still hiding in the brush just waiting. Wow...sent chills down the spine. If the dog weren't obedient he'd have been done.
It's hard to tell from the perspective, but if Atlas had gotten another 10+- feet, the coyote in the brush would have been on him for sure. He didn't even know he was there until he was called back.
I've seen 3 dobis fight 1 coyote, dobis leave, coyote runs away. Man made bad judgment. Little female runs when dobi comes close, male coyote comes after dobi when going back to man...Sometimes you just can't fix stupid. Hope he had gun. Game of cat&mouse. You do know coyote track people too. One yelp from female, other 4 come to kill.
This reminds me of a story I heard on the radio years back about a family's little dog and how one time they came home and their dog had gotten out and was gone and eventually they just found his bloody collar in the woods. They had always heard coyotes yapping around their property... they figured something similar happened, where the coyotes approached their dog pretending to be friends and once they got it out into the woods, they attacked. Luckily your Doberman is both bigger, stronger and smarter.
More evidence to prove Dobermans deserve their well-established rank as the 5th most intelligent dog breed... Stare them down, read the situation, watch to your right as one is trying to flank you thru the bushes, explore a little curiosity, establish who’s in charge and back down a pack of coyotes. Good boy!

Everyone is entitled to their opinion but the Shar-Pei (nearly extinct in 1972) is an independent intelligent dog that problem solves! My friend has a border Collie Ake the dog can’t even potty train himself 😂 but every dog does have a personality so I understand that too!
@@juniorgonzalez3900 : That list isn't based off obedience or popularity. It's put out yearly by all the most respected factions of the canine world including AKC, ASPCA, Cornell School of Veterinary medicine (Top 3 in the U.S.), etc. Shar-Peis are intelligent and problem solvers. However, I have close friends who train dogs for a living and multiple colleagues in the field of Veterinary Medicine. While they respect Shar-Peis, none of them have this breed in the top 15 for intelligence because they assess intelligence on a multitude of factors. Problem solving is only one factor out 15-20 including ability to learn (adoptive intellect), level of learning difficulty, emotional fortitude under stress, and many more.
You’re taking unnecessary chances with your beautiful, and thankfully, obedient dog. This pack was definitely drawing your dog out to kill her. A less obedient dog wouldn’t have resisted and would have been attacked and killed.
@@funkmonster Stop the madness.... Coyotes test, surround, and attempt to eat anything. Sure It starts out as a curious test, and ends with a dead domestic dog. All Coyotes care about is the next meal, and this is exactly how they go about getting one.
dmith smith Coyotes are dogs. Your argument applies to domestic dogs as well. Take away a dogs ability to be fed by humans and they will do whatever it takes to eat as well. This goes for all mammals as a matter of fact. Remember the Donner Pass incident? Take away a persons ability to eat and they will eat each other l. The only reason dogs behave is because they know we will be feeding them their next meal. Die in a house with no food and your best friend will also snack on you in a second. Yet even with a guaranteed next meal, domestic dogs attack humans 500,000 times every year. And there are less than 400 attacks on pets and humans every year by coyotes. The reason for the fear mongering is pure stupidity by humans. You want to fear something, fear Pitbulls. Pitbulls kill 50 humans every year. Coyotes have killed only 2 humans since the 1970s.
@@funkmonster And your point is......🤪....... All I was saying is that Dobie would have been lunch 4 sure if it went out into the bushes. You are talking to someone who has slept hundreds of nights on the ground without a tent in the Northeast surrounded by Coyotes, I have had staring contests with them 4 feet from my face while sitting leaned against a tree.. They are smart and will try to eat anything if the opportunity presents itself.. And they were waiting for that Doberman to present itself.
As do I, usually a long gun. Some genetic debris brought coyotes in the mountains of western North Carolina and we will never get rid of them - much to the detriment of the local wildlife.
What beautiful recall on the Doberman! Those coyotes were brazen and deploying the typical sneaky behavior they use to encircle a target. Dog apparently knew the game and wasn't lured in enough to ignore his recall. All dogs should be so well trained.
That is a beautiful specimen of a Doberman! That doberman could have easily of beaten two if not three of those coyotes! Unfortunately five Against One would had been a bit too many being as they would have surrounded the Doberman. Unfortunately I have witnessed coyotes attacking a doberman years ago in Louisiana. The Doberman was kicking ass when it was three against one but as other coyotes came in, the fight began to turn in the coyotes favor. Thankfully the owner was armed and saved his dog. Hats off to you for having such an amazingly well trained dog! 👍
Nice looking DP. Yeah, 3 coyotes against 1 DP would be tough fight. 5 to 1 would be a massacre. I'd get another DP or a ridgeback, or "thin out," that coyote population a bit.
@@funkmonster that's not entirely true. I have a lot of experience with coyotes, and they do indeed go after dogs. I wouldn't say they so much as bait them however if there are multiple coyotes they will gang up and entice another animal to try to get the drop on them
The lead coyote is SOOOOO baiting your Doberman into being their packs dinner.... mine would be leashed, so I could safely shoot the front runner. The rest learn at an accelerated rate when that occurs.
@@funkmonster you clearly got your coyote knowledge from a Disney movie. They are pack hunters, working together to feed the group. They don't obtain their food at petsmart.
I don't know what's more beautiful. The coyotes or your red doberman. I love both so much. You have done an excellent job training your dog and still have respect for the wildlife around you. I applaud
I thought you were foolish to test your dog (and the coyotes) that way but am impressed by your command of your off-leash dobie. I've known more than a few dogs that would've bolted after those coyotes no matter what!
Coyotes are pack hunters and are known to act submissively to "convince" large and curious domesticated dogs to come and play and then comes the ambush. The Coyote that disappeared into the bushes could have been flanking the Doberman and had that dog been alone probably would been attacked and driven toward the pack. Coyotes here in SoCal generally avoid humans but have been displaying a worrisome boldness in suburban communities near wild lands and if you have a small pet and allow it to run free, it won't last long if coyotes are seen in the area. Without seeing the context, that trail could have been behind a housing development which is a typical scene around here and hikers/joggers have been reporting being stalked. And then in our east county foothills and mountains it's lately been Mountain Lions!
That sure is a well-trained Doberman, stopping and turning on a dime when called. I think those coyotes were checking the Doberman out as a source of food. Interesting to see the pack behavior.
I think the Doberman one-on-one with a coyote the Doberman would win especially if you have a European male European males are a lot bigger than the Americans but great video great dog thank God he listen to you
Mike Bittinger I’ve been saying that. I had a 95lb German Bred male he was 95lbs of solid muscle and he could easily bite through bone (porter house)Unfortunately he died of cancer but no doubt he would crush a 60lb coyote. The dog in this video is displaying dominant behavior he reminds me of my dog when he would ignore other dogs yipping at them like the other dogs don’t exist.
Coyotes also try to hunt my Doberman. In packs too! Great video. The scruff was up on your dog letting them know he means business. You and your dog handled the situation really well. If they smell fear, then it's all over.
HUGE thumbs up, good sir. You clearly have a decent read on animals (which, HOLY COW is disturbingly rare among humans), and obviously also a very strong bond of trust and respect with your dog, which (also unlike a lot of people) you clearly bothered to train. Way to be, letting your dog and the coyotes sate their curiosity about each other, and thanks for sharing! :)
Lol, “Run for your life! Ambush! Packs are no joke! Did the see the leader come to the front then hide? Very smart dog. It took him a min, but, he picked up the leader waiting in the cut.
Coyote: Come play with us we're harmless and fun.
Dog: I'm domesticated, not stupid.

Like thugs on a street..
He would have fell for it, the guy saved his butt every time by calling out his name or else that dog would have fed the entire clan
@@joez.9932 The entire clan wouldn't have survived the encounter. He might have fed what was left.
@@joez.9932 That doberman would of fcked those coyotes up. They're not going to risk life and limb to try and snag a larger cousin of theirs, when they can prey and scavenge on much smaller game without risking injury. The doberman is not only taller and at least 50 pounds heavier, they're also a more aggressive breed, than coyote is species, with a much stronger bite Even female dobermans outweigh the largest male coyotes by 25 pounds.
That doberman is not scared one bit, he's cautious.. But also curious..but at the same time disciplined and intelligent...that's why he's probably still living today..
I love coyotes when they're innocent, but I won't deny that they can be dangerously smart at times.
Definitely a good well trained dog. But the coyote; or should I say coyote's?! Bold! and 5 of them?! Not very afraid are they? Thats not a good sign. If im not mistaken they, like most dogs have an alpha, and territory claiming instincts. If its not established and sometimes unpleasantly, they'll think nothing of encroachimg on your territory.
A friend of our family"s who lived in the mountains in Northern Cal., let her Doberman out to "go potty" and a few moments later, heard the most awful, fearful sound. They turned the outdoor light on to find a coyote pack had surrounded her dog, who was also highly trained, and pee'd himself in fear being surrounded by them right outside the door. It was the sight of a human that scared them all off. She ended up getting 2 more Dobermans, and it never happened again. And having a rifle, was really the only solution to keeping the livestock safe as well.
The things most politicians dont want to consider, is sometimes its necessary to have a firearm, and not everyone who owns one is an irresponsible whacko that just likes killing because they want attention or are mentally unstable.
I cant think of a more perfect example of why firearms should NOT be outlawed. People are tired of living in fear as it is. Here, especially, shows how bold the predators are. You can hear the sound of vehicles in the backround, so it has to be close to where people are living. What if it were 2 kids just walking home from playing ball, and they were confronted by these coyotes? Running isnt always a good idea, lest you be ankle or calf bitten. Kids should at the very least be given pepper spray they can take with them anywhere and everywhere they go. Its better than nothing, and could save them from an attack. Just scary how bold they are.
Another experience with coyotes that happened, was when my cat was killed and taken off by coyotes. It broke my heart and made me ill. I know its nature's way and everything, but i will never hesitate to shoot one on my property because if they're not fearful of you and your territory, you'll become a victim to them and they'll continuously encroach what you think is your boundry of safety, until you no longer feel safe at your own home. They are surely nothing to mess with, and should never be given an oppertunity inside your personal space. It really is literally a "them or you" situation.
This was a good video for people to see. It confirmed and reminded me of what they are capable of. If you live by the foothills or in the mountains, having a few large, well trained dogs, does alot for your security and protection,and perhaps a rifle and a shotgun. I've also noticed if I make them (the coyotes) afraid of me, they really keep a good 100yrds or more distance away, then eventually I'd stop seeing their tracks. If they get scared off well enough, it'd be doubtful we'd ever see them again. And we actually never did. I attribute it to my scaring them off and having 3 German Shepards. They'll eventually give upbecause its too hard to scavenge for food when they can always find an easier house to steal from..
curt greco : I think you’re right . So impressive
Allison Colby I REALLY don’t think that most sensible people (no matter what part of the political spectrum they’re coming from), has a problem with anyone out in the country owning whatever firearm they choose to.
@@doeman35 ~I really hope your right...All the protesting and the way some representatives are calling for a New Z. style all out ban, which seems to me if they did that would mean everywhere, and who knows if theres any exception or what a "ban" would include? Who knows, after all, the media hypes everything up and lies too much about everything as it is. But still, I really do hope you're right.
There is an incredible amount of subtle detail in this video. The coyotes are dogs, as is the Doberman, and they demonstrate many of the same behaviors, but they come from opposite ends of the dog thinking spectrum. The coyotes never know when their next meal is. It's kind of hard to imagine, but coyotes are usually hungry, almost never satiated, and may not have eaten in days. The Doberman takes his food for granted. He's only checking out the coyotes like he would any other strange dogs he might meet out on the trail, even if it's a pack. He's physically larger than any of the individual coyotes, and doesn't associate himself with being prey, so he boldly moves toward the pack of coyotes, but mindful that his pack is him and his owner, so he must not move too far from whom he as a Doberman feels the necessity to guard. He's probably been around other groups of dogs, who without any team/pack experience have never ganged up on another dog. If he were to actually have a coyote mealtime interaction and survive, he would not be out in front checking things out because he would know that they mean him harm, and that is definitely what the coyotes have in mind. The coyotes don't have time to play. It takes energy and time away from finding food. In the video, you can see that they are not in the least bit intimidated by the Doberman and his owner. Look at their tails. They are never scared, not even when they appear to retreat, which they are not doing. They are enticing the Doberman to come after them. As for play,
The coyote pack has assigned roles based on hierarchy, so there is nothing happenstance in what each of them is doing. There is an ongoing attempt to flank and get behind the Doberman and potentially even his human owner. There is rarely all 5 coyotes visible, and there may even have been others that were never seen that could have been off to the Doberman's left. Which direction was the wind from? Unseen coyotes downwind from the Doberman are not known to the Doberman and could be lying in wait as the others work their prey. The coyotes were aware of the Doberman and his owner long before they encountered each other. Coyotes move quietly, constantly listening and checking the wind as they hunt. That's how they catch prey; by surprise. Some of the coyotes are continually disappearing off to the side and are detected by the Doberman moving down to its right as they attempt to come in from behind to have it encircled. They are definitely working their prey. Towards the end of the video, when the human owner calls his dog back, you can see one of the coyotes kicking dirt, which is a dominant behavior and goes back to them not being intimidated. Fascinating video, but truly a dangerous situation.
Nah, a defensive territorial display of their group in force, not luring, but "go away wolf-thing". Likely nearby den. The kicking in the dirt leaves scent marks. Could be dangerous, I think I've seen video of four coyotes going after an actual wolf in Yellowstone -- without a human backing it up of course -- but this was a family of coyotes defending its home from an intruder.
@@normmackey8019 I live in coyote country, North inland San Diego County. I've cornered them in my completely fenced yard. I've been awakened in the middle of the night by one attempting to get my cat. I chased it back over the fence. I have a photo of one taken from my kitchen when I am looking at the neighbor's front yard, and where, in broad daylight, it is digging for a gopher. My family routinely sees them in the evening on the cul-de-sac that we live on. I've seen adults with pups, both small and larger, in the fields across from where I've lived, and where my cousin lives. . . My point? . . . In 40 years of living in rural San Diego County, and having owned Dobermanns for over 35 of those years, and walked, hiked, and biked the countryside from Penasquitos Canyon, to Julian, to Cuyamaca State Park, to Daly Ranch, to Dos Picos Park, to Balboa Park in downtown San Diego City with my Dobermanns, I have encountered more coyotes than I could ever count, including 2 that were within 2 feet of me and one of my Dobermanns, and . . .YET, . . . I have never been anywhere near a den, that I know of. . . . I have found dog trails that were under the over-growth, far removed from any regular human contact location, that I, as an adult would be hard pressed to travel down on my hands and knees, and that I imagine might lead to where there might be a den, but such dog trails were never anywhere near a clear over-head trail. I was traversing heavy brush without a dog to get to a location I could see in the distance, and decided to try to "line of sight" over-land it, without any brush cutting tools. . . Since a den is their home, and where they are vulnerable, and where they would be trapped, from my experience, they don't set up camp where they are going to encounter non-family members. . . They do however travel far and wide, relatively speaking, usually with family near by, in search of food, and they are "pack" animals, in that they hunt together. . . To think that opportunistic wild animals that don't have a "meal plan" are just "defending" the homestead, when they don't know where or when the next meal is, is a bit of a stretch. They daily balance risk verses reward. Coyotes eat carrion, and would most certainly kill, hide, and eat later anything they feel they can take on. The idea that you would feel the need to opine in such an adamant manner is funny to me.:"NAH, ..." . . . Ooooh Oooh Kaaay. Happy New Year.

coyotes rarely attack prey that can hurt them. coyotes are fragile and they know it. Even with the pack they would have lost at least one member to a dog like that. I've been around them for years and they have never attacked a dog larger than themselves, at least in my experience. The Doberman wouldn't "win" a fight against 5 coyotes but at least one or two would be injured enough not be able to get their next meal. They know it, its genetic.

The three you saw were just bait. There were more in the bushes. The dog knew this. Thankfully your dog was obedient.
Coyotes don't bait dogs, that's an urban (or I guess rural) legend. Coyotes and dogs are both curious, but coyotes are skittish and a lot of dogs will chase any animal that runs. The coyote gets spooked and runs, and the dog gives chase. The pack sees this as an attack and defends itself.
There's no need to contribute malice to it.
@eh6794 holy shit..i didn't know theye were that smart😲
5 showing , more most likely hiding
I’ve had it happen.
@@Atzy There's a pattern that repeats - one coyote is a bit further, challenging the turf instinct of the dog. They do the same with lonely wolves. They run to their pack. And it's not about malice, you're right about that. It's about getting food. And removing a rivaling canine from the vicinity of their territory, also about food, but about mating too. Like all pack animals of the same (or similar) species do: wolves, chimps ...
Coyotes when healthy, are skittish, of adult people. But they have snatched small kids, and there's a video where a lone coyite jumped in a frence of 6 foot and counting into a dog park, where it measured eye to eye a pitbull, then, alone decided to go for an attack, which was feints and nibbling the hindlegs of the pit bull, which after first contact realized it's not gonna win the fight and started to retreat, trying to attack when the coyote bit it's ankle, but it was always late and often at the other ankle: left when pitbull turned right and the opposite. 2-3 bites here and there.
And then the onwer who had been filming, realized he better intervene, and started shouting. Then the coyote started jogging alertly away, but not back where it came, exited to the side. the way it had just moved in its fight. It glanced the camera man only once just when the shouting start, and it moved away in a rapid jog - so orderly fast, but not in full speed or wasting energy. Wasn't skittish that coyote. The dog ran head a bit down to its owner. It knew it had been a close call. Though it had 15-20 pounds on the coyote. But in their meeting he turned out slower.
That's why I carry a sidearm when walking in the woods. 5 professional killers there. It's THEIR turf.

I've seen one at work in Colorado that actually carried the coyote in it's mouth to show off its' prize. Arminian Gampr is very similar to the CAS.
No, it's when you realize you need to carry a semi-auto 30.06

Glad he stayed away and came back on command. Beautiful Doberman. I once had a Doberman-Shepherd mix. Gorgeous, affectionate and a super companion. Atlas looks and acts like a well trained dog. Enjoy him.
Doberman: On your feet, man! I think we have a situation

Don’t play around with that many coyotes they make your dog chase them into the woods when the dog is alone they turn around and attack
kyle they don’t attack unless attacked. Coyotes are just dogs.

Fun fact: killing a coyote or to be more accurate when a coyote comes up" missing " from the pack it triggers of biological response in the female coyotes to have bigger litters.

@eh6794 one shot and all coyotes would split
@eh6794 well I had five coyotes attacking my dog in the backyard I didn't even have my gun on me had to go back inside grab my shotgun and guess what four coyotes staying in my yard cuz I busted that ass with the 12 gauge so yes a gun will help when they're trying to eat your dog my dog had a few bites on it but that's only cause I pulled in my driveway and realize what was happening and I still had time to get my gun when Kyle surrounding attack another animal that's bigger than then it can take hours to actually kill that animal where it down enough to where they can pounce on it
You have a very beautiful well trained Doberman Pinscher, which is never worth Taking Chances and getting your dog killed getting rabies, just to get the response of a pack of coyotes which are professional Hunters as a whole. But very interesting video to watch at a distance.

Coyotes:
Interesting how the coyotes bait animals into following them.
Oh heavens rudy
That's incorrect coyoteyipps.com/category/coyote-luring-myth/
Lynn Griffith There was coyote that initiated play with my dog. My dog then followed it and was never seen again. Now I make sure my dog is on a leash any time it’s outside.
@@MrFredstt I'm so sorry to hear that. It's never a good idea for a pet to initiate play with a wild animal. All canids are territorial and there have been conflicts between wild and domestic for sure but some were saying"coyotes bait dogs" and that's simply not true. I have 4 small dogs and we have coyotes, owls, hawks, eagles, mountain lions and bears in my area. All of these wild animals can kill a small pet but we coexist with all the amazing wildlife and know all the do's and don'ts. There are fewer and fewer wild places and animals can no longer find homes since humans have taken away almost everything they have. I try to educate as many people as I can and I'm glad you have decided to have your dog on a leash. I don't recommend walking dogs in areas where people have spotted coyotes, especially throughout the spring. This is pup season and they are very protective just as we would be if a stranger is approaching our babies room. Mortality is high among young coyotes, with 50 to 70 percent never reaching adulthood. Each year, 30 to 50 percent of the adult population dies off as well, due to hunting, trapping and vehicles collisions. urbancoyoteinitiative.com/its-coyote-pupping-season-what-you-need-to-know-to-coexist/

They look very Healthy, must be eating real good!
My thoughts exactly. The ones in N Texas dont look this great.
Coyote closest to camera looks back at his pack: "Why do I always have to be the bait?"
Other coyote: "Just lure the dog back here. We can take him. But I'm not too sure about that thing with just two legs. It's creeping us out."
You have a beautiful Doberman. Well trained to obey your command no matter what. I love this breed. Where was this video shot at?
Thank you sir. I'm a very proud Dobie Dad. The video was shot near MCAS Camp Pendleton in northern San Diego County California.
@Frank Lopez The Doberman is a proud and noble breed. They can indeed suffer from separation anxiety, but virtually ALWAYS that is from improper care, handling, training, and environment. Atlas is my third Dobie, and first male. He was a bit bullheaded at first until I received proper professional training on how to get him to work for me. Ever since then, he has been a happier and healthier dog thanks to the training. Dobies are not for everyone for sure. They are big and powerful and you must maintain the will to allow him to work, as thats what they want more than anything else. If they become disengaged, and bored with their environment, you end up with behavioral issues that can manifest in many different ways. My boy is a fine example of the breed and I am indeed very proud of him for his accomplishments. In my opinon, aside from common health issues from lousy breeding practices in North America, the Doberman is a superior breed for me.
@Frank Lopez the notion that the "doberman cannot be left alone inside without a crate" is absolutely false. Mine hasn't been in a crate a day in his life and aside from steeling a cheeseburger he's not ever torn anything up.
@Frank Lopez you don't have to be sorry, but I can assure you, you don't know what you think you know.
@Frank Lopez I AM a Doberman owner. Atlas is 5 right now. He's home alone every day during the week from 7a to 3p. If the dog tore your house up, it's YOUR fault for not knowing how to handle and train him. I'm not sure what else to tell you other than you are ignorant to K9 behavior. Do yourself a favor and read a book called "How Dogs Learn". You will understand much more about the issue you are trying to blame on "genetic anomaly".
Lead coyote keep measureing distance between dobe and backup. Smart hunters.
Not too smart though. Dobes are one of the few breeds substantially faster than Coyotes. That is why Luis Dobermann bred the greyhound into them. To run down the scout and avoid a pack situation. Dobermann spent most of his time tax collecting on horseback and dealt with jackals and wolves. He knew the importance of speed and power in a personal protection animal. Power alone is not enough in the wild. And I have been around enough packs to know that once the Dobe takes down and kills the scout the others will scatter--THEY DO NOT COME AND HELP. They are skittish and rely on ambush tactics. The minute a dog gets the upper hand they flee.
But yes, they are baiting the dog. They want him to come after them cautiously so they can attack as a group. Read: Ambush. A well trained Dobe should listen when you say stay.
This dog owner may have control over his dog but at the same time he's playing with fire...these are pack hunters and they are being strategic in luring his dobie
@@stuarth4296 interesting
Da coyotes: “come play we not gonna do anything to you” 🤷🏽♂️😂😂
I suggest u walk with a sturdy walking stick. Those yotes are toooo brave for comfort.
They have absolutely zero interest in confronting me. As soon as I move at all or take a step towards them, they flee. They are a non threat to us. We see them daily now.
@@HighTechCNC I live amongst Bears, Coyotes, and Cougars in the San Gabriel Valley. Most Coyotes are afraid of humans but they will take your dog - if they can. You need to have some pepper spray or something for protection on you when you go hiking. Those Coyotes were trying to ambush your dog.
HighTechCNC:
It might depend on how hungry they are. I'm shocked at how close they were to you, not the dog.
We lived on ten acres in north Texas and there were many coyotes but they only came out at night. We could hear them at a distance when they'd be in a frenzied attack, yelping all at once. As far as I know, they only went after small prey.
Funny thing: we were sitting out back one night having a few beers around a small fire pit and off in the distance near some trees we could see glowing eyes moving back and forth for about 30 minutes watching us. We did have adequate fire power however jic.
@@HighTechCNC Just make sure to yell at them, throw things at them (not to hit them, but near them), etc. They have just as much right to live as we do, but we need to make sure they stay afraid of us.
mimi long, we have a Coyote den at the edge of our neighborhood. Several years ago we had a Coyote jump the chain link fence into our yard. It ran into our Male German Shepherd Angus! Angus didn’t bark, he just hit it wide open. Grabbed it by the neck, shook it once and broke its neck! He the threw it up in the air several times. My next door neighbor saw the Coyote flying up in the air several times and peered over the tall wooden fence to see what was going on. He told everyone about it for several years. I should mention that Angus weighed 143 pounds and was in his prime at the time! He was a gentle giant except when it came to our handicapped daughter. He was like Cujo if anyone got within 50 feet of her.
That Doberman can take 3 of them easy
Coyotes are really beautiful creatures. Had a family of them living in the ravine behind my home. Love how they sing... and love their lovely faces! Taught my dogs to be mindful and careful when we are around them.
Agreed. You have to give them kudos they are very intelligent and good at what comes natural.
Great hunters.
This dude is playing with fire, all they need is one in and it’s all over
if he confronts them, the coyotes go away
Without human presence they would have done for that doggy in seconds. Looks can be very deceiving.
What a BEAUTIFUL doberman and very well trained, this a one of a kind video, there is such PEACE and both are calm. God BLESS you and your dog , thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much! Atlas and I are happy you enjoyed the video!
Looks exactly like my male Doberman of 1987-2000.
Dobermans are the best family dog and protection but they must be trained of course how beautiful is that
What a beautiful dog. I love how they are each trying to figure out what each other is. The littermates keep coming to sniff each spot the dog has stepped but if he moves too fast they are running back to the den haha
The yotes knew what animal they were seeking to kill, they probably have killed dogs before. Yes, they know it's a dog.
Geewiz, those coyotes are so smart trying to draw in the dobie. It could have been an ambush, or not. One really does not know for sure. Beautiful dobie and the coyotes are beautiful too. Thanks for sharing.
I was worried this was going to be an I am legend" scenario for a little
I worked at a zoo outside of Las Vegas, in the foothills of the Spring Mountains. It was at a place called Bonnie Springs, and there were stables and a restaurant and a mock-up western town with gunfights and hangings, but anyway.
There were dogs on the ranch, and coyotes in the desert surrounding it.
The coyotes had devised an ingenious way of preying on unwary dogs from the ranch.
They would send a female coyote to lure the dog into the desert, where the rest of the pack would attack from out of nowhere.
Just like those velociraptors in Jurrassic Park...
This is a great video. I love coyotes.
Man if they did that same thing to humans there wouldnt be a man alive.
Yea that’s not what they did, a basic google search will show you coyotes don’t lure dogs to be ambushed
Always loved dobbies!! What a beautiful well trained dog. ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks so much. I'm a proud daddy!
The very first thing that came to mind was how empowering it would have been to have had a pack of dobermans in this situation instead of just one. We used to have a neighbor with a pack of german shepherds. There is power in numbers...especially when they are breeds like doberman pinschers, german shepherds or american pitbulls.
pitbulls are garbage and don't do well in packs. I've seen well trained pits eat their own siblings after 3 years together. Really dumb breed.
The coyote looks like it’s gonna float away in the thumbnail 💀
Damn when he yelled her name I tossed my phone 😂 5:23

LMFAOOOOO SAMMMEEEEEEEE

Thank you!
the Doberman seams to be curious but he wants to protect the cameraman Coyotes are just as interested!
Doberman would rip the throat out of coyote, specially a muscular one like that, that's why it's not scared.
Such a beautiful Doberman!
8:55 the realization that you lost your back up! My dogs would have run towards them with great speed.
My shih-tzu cross would have run at them and become an appetizer!
5:20 this is exactly how coyote will set up an ambush
Coyotes are very smart
Wow, yeah, I saw it clearly there. When the dog turned his back that coyote was stalking and the other was still hiding in the brush just waiting. Wow...sent chills down the spine. If the dog weren't obedient he'd have been done.
It's hard to tell from the perspective, but if Atlas had gotten another 10+- feet, the coyote in the brush would have been on him for sure. He didn't even know he was there until he was called back.
@@Violinks Pretty scary. Those coyotes acted interested and shy but they had a plan all along and I didn't seen it until that moment. Amazing.
The person filming this is wrong for putting his dog in a bad
Situation he’s very lucky nothing happened to his dog or him
Not smart at all
Yes I agree!!! I'm surprised everyone isnt saying this
@@workingurl1831 I DID!! The guys a fucking moron
I've seen 3 dobis fight 1 coyote, dobis leave, coyote runs away. Man made bad judgment. Little female runs when dobi comes close, male coyote comes after dobi when going back to man...Sometimes you just can't fix stupid. Hope he had gun. Game of cat&mouse. You do know coyote track people too. One yelp from female, other 4 come to kill.
This reminds me of a story I heard on the radio years back about a family's little dog and how one time they came home and their dog had gotten out and was gone and eventually they just found his bloody collar in the woods. They had always heard coyotes yapping around their property... they figured something similar happened, where the coyotes approached their dog pretending to be friends and once they got it out into the woods, they attacked. Luckily your Doberman is both bigger, stronger and smarter.
He wouldn’t stand a chance against that pack of coyotes.
More evidence to prove Dobermans deserve their well-established rank as the 5th most intelligent dog breed...
Stare them down, read the situation, watch to your right as one is trying to flank you thru the bushes, explore a little curiosity, establish who’s in charge and back down a pack of coyotes. Good boy!
I rank Shar-Pei’s one rank above the Doberman but right under the Border Collie. I place Chow Chow as the smartest and German Shepard next. I feel there’s a difference between obedient and independent.
@@juniorgonzalez3900 : Shar-Peis are intelligent but I personally wouldn't rank them that high (even taking all factors into consideration such as "stubbornness does not equate to unintelligent" and Independence). The Top 10 Most Intelligent Breeds has been fairly Rock Solid and established for decades now but opinions will vary. Personally, I agree with 1-5 but 6-10 could be moved around a bit. Top 1-10👇

2. Poodle
3. German Shepherd
4. Golden Retriever
5. Doberman
6. Shetland Sheepdog
7. Labrador Retriever
8. Papillon
9. Rottweiler

@@knottchu6159 Shar Pei’s are problem solvers. Their independence/stubbornness is a result of their intelligent. The list you mentioned is a list based on popular and affordable dogs which results in making a list of obedient breeds. I’ve been told by countless vets and breeders alike that they make German Shepherds and Golden Retrievers look like “c-students”. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but the Shar-Pei (nearly extinct in 1972) is an independent intelligent dog that problem solves! My friend has a border Collie Ake the dog can’t even potty train himself 😂 but every dog does have a personality so I understand that too!
@@knottchu6159 Papillon are a fascinating breed though 😜
@@juniorgonzalez3900 : That list isn't based off obedience or popularity. It's put out yearly by all the most respected factions of the canine world including AKC, ASPCA, Cornell School of Veterinary medicine (Top 3 in the U.S.), etc.
Shar-Peis are intelligent and problem solvers. However, I have close friends who train dogs for a living and multiple colleagues in the field of Veterinary Medicine. While they respect Shar-Peis, none of them have this breed in the top 15 for intelligence because they assess intelligence on a multitude of factors. Problem solving is only one factor out 15-20 including ability to learn (adoptive intellect), level of learning difficulty, emotional fortitude under stress, and many more.
Amazing interaction! I like how you stayed quiet and let them test each other's boundaries.

Brazen coyotes. Beautiful Doberman though. I've owned five female Dobermans. The most intelligent breed IMO.

@@funkmonster Stop the madness.... Coyotes test, surround, and attempt to eat anything. Sure It starts out as a curious test, and ends with a dead domestic dog.
All Coyotes care about is the next meal, and this is exactly how they go about getting one.
dmith smith Coyotes are dogs. Your argument applies to domestic dogs as well. Take away a dogs ability to be fed by humans and they will do whatever it takes to eat as well. This goes for all mammals as a matter of fact. Remember the Donner Pass incident? Take away a persons ability to eat and they will eat each other l.
The only reason dogs behave is because they know we will be feeding them their next meal. Die in a house with no food and your best friend will also snack on you in a second.
Yet even with a guaranteed next meal, domestic dogs attack humans 500,000 times every year. And there are less than 400 attacks on pets and humans every year by coyotes. The reason for the fear mongering is pure stupidity by humans. You want to fear something, fear Pitbulls. Pitbulls kill 50 humans every year. Coyotes have killed only 2 humans since the 1970s.

@ 3:18 he heard all the other coyotes in the bush... SMART dog for not falling for the bait! 👍
What beautiful recall on the Doberman! Those coyotes were brazen and deploying the typical sneaky behavior they use to encircle a target. Dog apparently knew the game and wasn't lured in enough to ignore his recall. All dogs should be so well trained.
Its cool because doberman just chill and he is listening owner that was really good.And thanks god owner is smart and he know they bait him
That is a beautiful specimen of a Doberman! That doberman could have easily of beaten two if not three of those coyotes! Unfortunately five Against One would had been a bit too many being as they would have surrounded the Doberman. Unfortunately I have witnessed coyotes attacking a doberman years ago in Louisiana. The Doberman was kicking ass when it was three against one but as other coyotes came in, the fight began to turn in the coyotes favor. Thankfully the owner was armed and saved his dog. Hats off to you for having such an amazingly well trained dog! 👍

@@iclogtoilets3483 "SIT!" and STFU.
This doggo knows a liar when they see one
Coyotes are pack hunters and are known to act submissively to "convince" large and curious domesticated dogs to come and play and then comes the ambush.
The Coyote that disappeared into the bushes could have been flanking the Doberman and had that dog been alone probably would been attacked and driven toward the pack.
Coyotes here in SoCal generally avoid humans but have been displaying a worrisome boldness in suburban communities near wild lands and if you have a small pet and allow it to run free, it won't last long if coyotes are seen in the area.
Without seeing the context, that trail could have been behind a housing development which is a typical scene around here and hikers/joggers have been reporting being stalked.
And then in our east county foothills and mountains it's lately been Mountain Lions!
You have a awesome dog she was ready to protect you right away
"He", not "she" but that may have been autocorrect.
