  • As mentioned earlier however, most members of the genus Canis species such as the domestic dog and coyote can interbreed to produce fertile offspring. Furthermore, when the differences in number and arrangement of chromosomes is too great, hybridization becomes less and less likely.

Coyotes and dogs are related, and they are biologically capable of producing hybrid litters.

Coyotes are highly seasonal breeders; dogs are not.

Coydog females have a shifted estrus cycle that does not coincide with the coyote period.

Domestic dog and coydog males do not tend to litters, whereas male coyotes do.
