Pup or dog?

I know a guy that has rat / jack russell mix pups- good genetics for a sq dog if you like fiest style dogs

How you gonna win when you ain't right within?

That's exactly the type of dog I'm looking for.  PM me a contact number.  I'd take a pup but would prefer a dog already trained. 

Thanks.

That is a great way to spend time in the woods....with a good squirrel dog.  Haven't done that since I was a kid.  Didn't often get to hunt with a dog, but it sure was fun. Hunting squirrels as a kid was my favorite......& how I really learned "how" to hunt.  If you could harvest a mess of gray squirrels on Saturday with a .22, you could probably successfully hunt just about anything in the area.

Wayne,
I'll see the guy today. I know he doesn't have trained dogs for sale, but he may have a few pups left. Last weekend there were 6 available. I'll also ask around about trained dogs.

Squirrel hunting is a blast, have loved it my whole life. My grandpa loved it too - he still ate the brains- old school!

We always had a squirrel dog when I was growing up.  I decided there is no reason to not have one now.

WW,

An East Siberian Laika is a long way from being a fyce, I know, but would you consider one?

What price range do you have in mind?

I've had 3 different squirrel dogs and the laika is by far the smartest and best one I've had.

Well, I got a pup from a friend in West Fork.  She's a mix but she seems very smart at 8 weeks old.  Time will tell.  Worse case, she sits in my lap and eats popcorn.  She does like hanging out in my shop.

Hope she works out.  I need someone who has a mature squirrel dog to hunt with to show her the ropes.

Good luck take her to a city park and see if she will chase squirrels.  Like Twist my Great Grandfather took a many Heinz 57 dog and taught them to tree squirrels , When I was real little he had a Walker / Black n Tan mix that would tree every squirrel in 3 counties if you let it.

Doing good.  She weighs 16.4 lbs.  Working with her until she loses interest right now.  Training a pup has to be fun to them.

Dad used to train squirrel and rabbit dogs by killing one and skinning it, and then tying it to a rope.  Then he'd let the pup maul it over good and have us kids run around while the pup chased it.  When he wanted to teach it to tree, he'd have use run around and then throw the rope over a tree limb and let it hang there while the pup ran around underneath trying to get to it.  That's all I really remember that he did, but it worked pretty darn good.

Hogs have hit a wall at the wrong time of the season.  I will go on record now and say they may not even get out of their regional.  The hitting has been carrying them with a few good pitching outings but they just don't have the reliable pitching they need to get back to the CWS.

We started all ours with 22 ramset blanks when they were still puppies while they were eating , first time about 30 yards away and with each week get a little closer till you with in 5 feet of them.
