DANBURY, CT — The city's animal control department has said a recent coyote attack on a dog should serve as a warning to dog owners, citing the ongoing coyote mating season.

"A recent incident involving a medium-sized lab mix being attacked by two coyotes when let out before bed highlights the importance of pet safety," wrote Danbury Animal Control.

Officials said the dog survived the attack, and Danbury Animal Control is urging folks to keep pet vaccinations current and never leave them unattended outside.

Danbury AC said mating season for coyotes is January to about mid-March, with pups born in April to mid-May.

As a result, Danbury AC released some tips courtesy of CT Dog Gone Recovery, a grassroots organization dedicated to helping pet lovers find their lost dogs. They include:• Don't leave pets outside unattended.

• Don't tie them outside on a lead, especially at night.

• Use non-slip collars and/or harnesses when walking your dog.

• Take your dog out on a leash and have a whistle, stick or other "hazing tools" to scare away any predators.
