Now, if you think that sweet little dog was a victim of coincidence and that coyotes don’t wear watches, think again.

If you have a dog, that dog knows the schedule. Our dog Annie would tell us when it was time for her chewable and, I guess, delicious arthritis medicine. Farm dogs know what time to bring in the cattle.
They say animals (especially dogs) can "smell" time...

Our pup comes out to the living room, right about 9:00, every night. She'll either ring the bell we have hanging on the back door, or stand in front of the television, and stare at me. It's time for her last "trip to the loo" for the evening. You can set you watch by it...
