LOS ANGELES — Brittany Furlan, the comedian and wife of rocker Tommy Lee, says her dog’s extra flab saved it from being carried off by a coyote that snatched it near the pool of their Los Angeles home.
Ring surveillance camera video posted Tuesday to Instagram by Furlan shows the coyote snatching the small dog, Neena, from poolside and running out of frame while Furlan screams and follows.
"Thank God, I always watch them," she told NBC Los Angeles.
What was described as a coyote positions to grab Brittany Furlan's dog Neena from her backyard in the Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles on Tuesday.
People are encouraged to not leave small pets outside unsupervised and to bring small pets inside at night to prevent coyote attacks.
