The happiest coyote I know is having his happy birthday this week!
And so am I. We’ll be sharing a New York steak.
To be honest, my best birthday present ever is Charlie.

Happiest of birthdays to Shreve and Charlie! I’m not sure how it happened that more than 11 years ago, I stumbled onto a blog about an amazing woman who befriended a beautiful coyote pup, but I am so glad I did. Love getting my weekly photos of Charlie and reading about all of your adventures. Thank you!

Happy birthday, Charlie and Shreve! Hope you enjoy your well-earned steak dinner. I’ve followed Charlie for years, and I’ve recommended your blog to neighbors recently because we have just had coyotes move into our neighborhood (my yard, actually), and I hope to make my friends curious about this animal that they fear so much. Everybody in the neighborhood seems to have seen our new resident except for me, and he or she seems to be denning in or very close to my yard. I can’t wait to see him or her, even as I worry about the safety of my small dogs, but vigilance seems a small price to pay for the privilege of sharing space with such interesting creatures. Thanks for sharing Charlie with us–

We are so happy and honored to be celebrating with you.

I so enjoyed reading about Shreve and Charlie. It took my mind off of all the turmoil going on in my life with a very ill husband the horrible situation in our country and the fires in Oregon where we now live. Getting tired of seeing smoke instead of a beautiful blue sky!
We retired early, moved to beautiful Driggs, Idaho where we built our log home and taught skiing for fourteen years at Grand Targhee. We met many wonderful animals roaming around our property and slept with our two cats Jack and Lacy every night.
We now live in Oregon closer to sons and families. I could just feel Charlie and Eli as I read your book!
