anyone ever use domestic dog urine as an attractant? if so do you use it the same as buying fox/coyote urine?

i think it would be fun to watch people collect it, i do not think people use dog pee but you never know. as urine in canines is different probably because of the diet differences but it is a territoral thing that would take over & the yotes will try to pee on it to tell he is boss in that area. try it & let us know if it works..

Ol Coop hit the nail right on the head. Fido eats kibbles n bits. Yotes and fox live on meat. That fact alone makes a huge difference. I have two male dogs that patrol my farm and mark everything and have seen both yotes and fox smell a marked fence post and, with out hesitation, vacate the area immediately.

Hold that thought; What do the pen raised fox eat. The ones that supply you with the Pure Fox Pee, you buy at convention?

They had better be meat fed. I know the urine I buy is, I asked. A buddy of mine raises mink and all he feeds is meat scraps from local butcher shops. I don't use much K9 urine anyhow. Maybe 1 out of 5 or 6 sets. That's probably why I caught no skunks and only one grinner last year.

i do not catch skunks & grinners in scent post with pee as much as porkys & deer check out my sets a lot, and also dont set close to hedge rows & stone walls as they hold the junk that you get in your traps.
