Ahhhhhhhh how can people be so stupid!?!?!?!
I can see someone who doesn't know ANYTHING about dogs MAYBE confusing one for a fox, but a coyote? And the Humane Society!!?? Oh my God this makes me so sad. Poor old Shiba I hope she makes it home safe.

Lot's of people thought my black and white Alaskan Husky was a coyote for some strange reason too and of course every other person I meet asks if my CsV is a wolf and/or a coyote. (Or a fox when he was a puppy!) I always have the same answer: "Uh.. No. He's a dog."

I'd be so scared if he got loose and ended up at a shelter though, I don't know what they'd do. I think different branches have different policy's for 'hybrid's' At the SPCA I worked at we scanned every single animal, no matter how feral or wild for a microchip so I feel safe for that at least. But basically I'll just never let him out of my sight!!
