I have a hunting partner with a dog thats part stag hound and has the same problem.  He ended up attaching a bell to the dogs collar when he turns him out.  The idea is that the coyotes hear the bell long before the dog gets close and will head for the hills.  Since starting this, he hasn't had one problem.

I don't know if this particular dog was only trashing on sight or trailing.  If trailing's a problem, the bell might not be of any use.
