While it is possible for coyotes and dogs to breed, it doesn't happen all that often since the breeding cycle for dogs is different and from coyotes. I have read those crosses are usually between a female dog and male coyote because a female coyote would be more likely to try to kill the dog as breed with it. Wolf crosses have been wrongly called coy dogs for decades before DNA testing came on the scene. Of course in this case I don't know for sure, just playing the odds. SH, check your PMs.
