Dogs will be dogs and that's why it is a dog owners responsibility to have control and restrain of their animals . Based on the OP's description this owner had two powerful dogs that s/he could not control or restrain. We have the dogs leading the owner. Lucy could have been a person and perhaps a young person at that rather than a dog.
This story strikes me as having to be more concerned about dogs in The Villages than coyotes

One incident of this sort does not give cause for concern for the entire community. We have over 100,000 people and I've never heard of this happening before......Good grief. Chill!!
