There's something transcendant and eternal about that relationship.

Riffing on your alias: we have coyotes in our neighborhood in town in Atlanta. They don't do the normal coyote howls. It's more this weird, warbling call that you'd associate with hyenas or jackals. Scary as hell, though I love canids of any stripe. They run the green space that runs right behind our back fence. When my dogs (Beagle and Gold Doodle) hear it, they look away like, "Nope. Nuh uh. I didn't hear nothin'." If they could put their fingers in their ears they would. It's hilarious.
