Had a buddy with an intact male, the local wolves sent out their female in heat to lure him away from the house. My buddy was shooting over the top of his own dogs head to scare him back to the house. My neighbour had his dog attacked by a number of coyotes, he got away and did not become lunch but not without being cut up a bit. The interesting part with my neighbour, his dog had blood all over him but no deep cut, so he messed up at least one of the coyotes.
