We know that dogs are very similar to other wild animals, but there are times when they may actually team up and live together. Such was the case for a stray white dog in Nevada.

That dog, which they called Ghost or Coyote Dog, lived with a wild pack of coyotes for several months. People had been reporting that they saw him with the pack, and there were even times when it was reported he was leading the pack.

According to one local, Tracy Rubell, many called him Coyote Dog, but they prefer the name Ghost. Not only was he white, but he also disappeared for months.

She said on GoFundMe: "Ghost would run through the neighborhood at night (some nights covering 5 to 6 miles of distance), and he was spotted running right amid a coyote pack."

Rubell also said that he had been seen playing with the pack of wild coyotes on several occasions.

Nobody really knows how Ghost got into that situation, but some feel that he may have been dropped off in the area as a puppy. When the coyote pack found him, they adopted him into their fold.

A member of the Southern Nevada Trapping Team, Susan McMullen, spoke to a local news station. She said: "It seems like he may have been put out there between seven and eight months and somehow or another, the coyotes just accepted him."

Seeing the dog with a pack of coyotes was interesting, but recently, people noticed that the dog was limping. People began thinking it would be better to catch him, but he was very elusive.

After unsuccessfully attempting several times, McMullens teamed up with some other trappers from Las Vegas. They tracked the dog's movements for about two weeks and found where he was hanging out.

After discovering his pattern, they set a trap, and within six hours, they had the dog.

The trappers were relieved that the dog was so nice and it almost seemed as if he wanted to be caught. Even though he had lived with the wild coyotes for so long, he was not aggressive.

They did say that it was important to get him some food because he was "skin and bones." They started feeding him out of their hands and spoke about how tolerant he was of the leash.

Being in the wild for so long did take a toll on the dog. He had bite marks all over his body and a broken toe. It also seems that he had become so hungry that he ate rocks because he had some in his stomach.

According to the Amor Peludo rescue, Ghost was wrongly placed with a family who claimed to own him, but efforts are being made to remove him from that home and get him the medical attention and loving family that he so deserves.
