Bearmaster, Since your dogs are inside dogs I would definitely not risk it. I coon hunt with my hounds regularly, and I have seen quite a few fights. It takes several fights before a dog can really take care of itself against a full grown coon, and until then it really needs an experienced dogor two with it to protect it. I would either trap the coon, or just stake out the spot and shoot it. (Be careful not to do this out of season, or risk getting a fine.)
