Today, my grandpa set out snare traps to catch the foxes that have been around our property, because he wanted to protect our dog from being attacked by them. I then got a phone call from my dad telling me our dog got caught in one. FML

C_Ramirez1695 tells us more :

Unfortunately our dog has passed. It was a choke snare. I don't blame my grandpa he loved our dog just as much as we did, he was only trying to protect him. I don't know where you're from in the world but foxes and coyotes are not harmless. Our dog was a little shih tzu and a fox or coyote wouldn't think twice about attacking him.

Unless it was a trap from the 1800's the dog should be fine. The new ones don't harm the legs or paws like the old ones did.

I'm sort of thinking that the traps were meant to get rid of the foxes. Doesn't mean that the dog wasn't hurt but there's a very likely chance it was. OP just needs to follow up so we can know, I guess.

Most people in my area use live traps since it's technically illegal to kill the foxes (note this doesn't stop people from killing them).
Plus certain types of snare traps are illegal.

Foxes and coyotes are usually too smart to get caught in live traps. They're wily and sneaky. That's the only issue with most traps. :/
