Should I be worried about coyotes getting after my dogs? Hi all.  Just moved to Atlanta for a new job.  I will most likely be living in the Douglasville area.  I have 2 Australian Shepherds.  One is 12 and one is 1.5 and I worry about coyotes getting them when I am not looking.  I know this is a huge problem in some places.  Do I need to be worried about this?
