The perfect solution is one that prevents an attack from ever happening. That's the outcome we really want, so we looked to nature for inspiration and developed an accessory that adds bright nylon bristles to the top of the vest. We call them CoyoteWhiskers and their purpose is to intimidate and encourage predators to look for an easier and more familiar target.
The CoyoteWhiskers (accessory, doesn't include the vest) are very lightweight and they attach to the top of the CoyoteVest or SpikeVest with Velcro. They're actually just flexible nylon bristles that are not dangerous at all – but a predator doesn’t know that. For all they know the bristles might be razor sharp and poison tipped – the opposite of an easy meal.*The CoyoteWhiskers are to be used specifically with CoyoteVest Pet Body Armor products.
While the CoyoteWhiskers won't actually hurt anyone or impair mobility, they're stiff enough to irritate the eyes and mouth of an attacker. Imagine trying to eat your dinner, with your hands tied behind your back, and these bristles were sticking out of the plate – it would be hard to do!
