Furlan said that at first she thought the coyote was the neighbor’s dog that had escaped, before she realized what it was.

“This all happened so quickly,” she said, adding that their wall is 10-feet high and that she’d lived in the home for four years and had never seen a coyote in the backyard.

“This just goes to show it can happen at any time,” Furlan told the outlet, confirming she thinks the pup is “pretty worked up” but isn’t injured and doesn’t appear to have any bites or puncture wounds.

“I don’t even know if she realizes how bad it was,” Furlan continued, saying that Neena has still been “playing and eating.”

“It was an insane experience,” the star later said, insisting she was just “grateful” to be able to get to her dog in time.
