This is sad. I wish there are things the city can do to prevent wildlife from jumping onto public roads. I was so scared driving up to Cranbrook on the highway when I knew Moose will jump out of no where.

It could be a black and tan Shiba Inu.  The dogs are known escape artists, and they do grow to about 20 pounds. Smaller than a husky...
Even though the dog doesnt have tags, it might have slipped through the collar. Like huskies, their necks are the same size/width as their heads so they do slip off pretty easily. It might have had a microchip though?
RIP.

shitty situation man, i know how it feels. im not much of a dog person, but whenever i see cat roadkill i instantly get choked up, and get really angry and society for owning cars.
in the fall, there was a HUGE problem it seemed with raccoons on 1 road in richmond. multiple times i had to slam on my brakes and throw on the hazards to let those little critters get out of the way safely. although on canadian thanksgiving i had to actually get out and help them.
there was two bigger ones ,and a baby cub. but one of the big ones got hit and died instantly. and they wouldn't leave the bodies side. so i stopped, got out of my car and moved the body safely into some bushes. thankfully the cubs followed, and hopefully stayed in the brush.

Not a Shiba Inu. Definitely looks like a coyote. They're somewhat common. Saw one outside of the BCIT Aerospace campus in Richmond about a week ago...just hanging out in the bushes near the river.

Coyote for sure. The proportions, colouring and shape is right. We get a few through the neighborhood now and again. And just as many "missing cat/toy do" ads as we do coyotes.
Which means you know we have coyotes.

Way tooo much headache. wish i had a way to avoid it. Dealing with ICBC and proving them of the mechanical damage is just pain in the ass (found out my timing skipped 2 teeth). OHHHHHh the joy of unresponsive estimator.

OHHHHHh the joy of unresponsive estimator. | How does hitting an animal cause the timing belt in your motor to skip 2 teeth and how do you prove hitting an animal caused your timing to skip 2 teeth?
If you can't answer question #1, good luck trying to prove question #2 to ICBC.

Just an update..
ICBC denied claim for engine damage. Because the timing belt job was done by my friend. Unlucky for me, timing skipped and previous timing belt job was a DYI. shitty.
