Fox??? or something else?


Well I was just looking outside our front window and I saw "something" go past our hedge, across our drive and past our neighbours. When I saw it I thought "god that looks like a coyote", I am quite sure it wasn't a fox as it was very big, but Christ it was thin it has a sort of busy tail

I saw it disappear across the road and into one of the neighbours, so off I go outside (only me here at the moment) and take a look didn't see anything for a few mins and then I saw it go across one of the neighbours front garden and disappear, I tried calling to it, but nothing.

Either it is a VERY VERY large fox, or a very very thin stray but it did look kind of "wild"

Any ideas?

lol still not sure it was a fox though Mags, our neighbours wall is quite tall and it was higher than that. I have seen a lot of foxes over the years and I am sure I would know one if I saw it in that situation.

The more I think about it the more I think it was a dog ??

It is was a bit dark for the camera, but I will now be keeping my eyes open for a possible stray dog??? lol

Well if it is a dog Mags, I will have to see if I can get it some how as it was far far far too thin.
