I have tried to protect my mother’s 2 shih tzus from coyotes, I made my mother put up a fence but since coyotes can dig under your fence, I was able to get the fence installers to attach an 18 inch galvanized wire-mesh apron to the bottom of the fence and bury the wire-mesh apron under the bottom of the fence posts to keep coyotes from tunneling under the fence. They would have to tunnel a total of 2 feet to get under the fence, which is supposed to be a deterrent. I wanted my mother to try and post coyote rollers on the outside of her fence to try to ward off any coyotes entering the fenced area.
My narc mother refused to put coyote rollers on her fence because “they wouldn’t look pretty. “ Look at the video in the link below, supposedly coyotes cannot get over the fence because of the rollers. ( now others say that some coyotes can allegedly jump 8 feet in the air and clear a ffence, but most cannot jump so high) .
Here are coyote rollers:
Rollers are designed to counter how coyotes hoist themselves over fences. They prefer to get a running start and then jump or climb over the top of the fence while pushing with their back paws.
Rollers prevent the coyote from getting a good grip on your fence and then thwart any dreams coyotes had of breaking into your backyard. It is more humane than barbed wire and just as effective.
You can either purchase these rollers or try your hand at making them yourself with some PVC pipes. You can use the coyote roller system on the inside of your fence to keep your dog from jumping over the fence and escaping his backyard.
