We have a 75 lb Doberman mix female, Bella. she is trained in rattler aversion, which ( for her, very intelligent ) worked very well. The coyotes around here run in packs. Bella would do ok against 1 but not well against a pack. We keep her inside if they are nearby. Sometime they taunt her from across the rocks.
The main reason we cannot have dogs allowed is because of custom fancy textiles and no fence.
I was just teasing - but I’m sure you get the joke since you have a big dog!
Mine was a doberman/shepherd mix. I have a real soft spot for the dobies 
Bella is 8 now and still very athletic. Her face is pretty white. We might get another dobie mix female to give her the experience of doggie love and play during the next part of her life. She is very attached to us and has been the only dog
My Doby girl “Kelly’s Kosmic Legend” aka Kosmo passed over the Rainbow Bridge in October. She would have been 13 last month. I saw her when she was just a day old and she fit in the palm of my hand. When she died the sum of her tumors would have likely fit in my lap.
Was trying to post a pic of my girl and was getting everything but…
Here’s one:
And here she is dunking in her water bucket:
And here she is the night after she ate her new bed:
I’m so sorry she’s gone:( I miss all of mine that have passed away no matter how long its been. Dogs are the best.

Spray rooms with peppermint oil mixed in water (corners, window sills, doors, crevices). I do about half and half before every guest. Spiders and other creepy crawlies hate the smell. Have not seen a single bug in our space, nor have I had a complaint. Plus, it smells nice to humans, and it’s “natural.”!
