It certainly could have been a coyote or perhaps a gray fox, though they are smaller.

This one looked like it was about the size of a german shepard, but too gray in color to have been one. I was so sad for the rest of the day. I know that as we grow as a population and there is a need for more housing, but everytime I see more "developments" pop up I think about all the animals that are now displaced. :(

I agree, and I hate seeing anything dead along the roadside.

Last week out on a delivery I came across a field with three coyotes standing there. I was about 500 to 1000 feet from them. They looked like they froze in their tracks because I stopped to view them! So I took a quick photo of the one closest to me. After downloading photo to my computer and looking at picture I realized why they were there!

They do make it difficult to sleep. At our family cabin there was a pack that would hunt around the cabin. They would call from the mountains that surround the cabin. When they are attacking their prey they sound like wolves. But for the past year or more they seem to have left.
