Another reason to keep your dog on a leash in Boston

There's less chance the dog will be carried off by a coyote. Police report that's what happened early this morning to a terrier running off leash in woods off River Street in Mattapan:

... The coyote and the terrier were not located.

That is so sad for the dog and its owner. On Friday afternoon I was on Allandale Road in Jamaica Plain, at the Spring House nursing home. There are woods right off the parking lot there. I was walking my small dog in the woods and heard a rustle in the tall grass. A coyote stood up and looked at us. Then a second coyote stood up. They both walked away from us. Scary!

Reason #4857 to use when explaining to the cats why they can't go Out, no matter how convinced they are that they Really Need To.
