This little guy is FULL of surprises. I highly recommend taking a little dog such as this one squirrel hunting when any of you go! I don't own this fella, but the offer is on the table to make him mine.. This is the second time that little "Stinky Pete" has done this! [=

Very impressive little guy haha

Gonna take him again this weekend sometime. The only thing about a feist is that if they get after a rabbit, don't expect to get the darned thing, lol! Last weekend (and plenty of other times) he jumped up two at different times of the day and BOTH times my gung-ho attitude had me wrapped up in briars-a-plenty! BUT Stinky P would be right there with me (once he's chased the rabbits faaar away).

That is one determined little dog. That was a real good video. I found myself rooting for the little dog. My buddy had a Cairn Terrier and that devil will go in a hole and I swear he digs out anything. He's a good squirrel dog, but when you shoot something.. he mauls it.

Lol! Cairn terriers are very neat little dogs. Yanno, "Toto" from the wizard of Oz was a Cairn.. They say at a certain time of year, you have to "strip" their fur.. It's where ya just sorta pull at it (all over their sides and back) here and there and see if they're shedding. If they are, then ya gotta keep doing it to help them lose their winter fur. Stinky Pete probably WOULD maul the heck out of the squirrels, but we don't let him hang on to them for very long and we always let him grab each one we shoot (if he helped or not). So he knows that there's always another coming his way. 

Thanks for the comment! [=

Our little dog looks a lot like him. Gosh I love the video. I would love to go squirrel hunting with a squirrel dog. We use to have a dog that would dig dang ground hog holes like that and was sucessful a couple time. She would spend a whole day digging after one. Couldn't drag her out. She treed 2 groundhogs that I knew of. I shot one out of the tree straight up with a bow and it pissed all over me before falling. I bet she killed 25-30 groundhogs that she would sneak up on. Dangest thing I ever did see. She cornered one once and it latched on to her right under the eye and she would walk a mile around one after that.Never killed another.

Very entertaining stories, cbrown! Stinky Pete has been bitten just under his eye last time by a squirrel than ran down the tree and to the ground and he FINALLY figured out after that to shake the heck out of the squirrel so's it can't bite 'em! It scared the crap out of us because when that eye of his caught the sunshine, it looked like it had blood IN the eye.. Turns out, the blood just seeped up and got on his eye; WHEW! Close one..

After being bitten (at least 5 times by various squirrels) he seems to be that much more determined to get after them.  [=
