How does the dog actually help get the squirrel? Do they spot them up trees? Never met anyone with a squirrel dog before.

They go by sight /sound and some by smell they tree the squirrel and bark when hunter shoots the squirrel then it’s off to locate another one it’s been 40 years since I had a tree dog due to working all the time but I finally have time now and it’s amazing how much pups cost and then you have started dogs that’s $1000.00 plus and finished dogs that are $3000.00 to $6500.00

I’m ready to pick her up and get her accustomed to us and when our sun comes back out and snow starts melting we can take her for a hunt our squirrels are denned up due to getting snow today and tomorrow

Never done it but that has to be a great time. But I think any kind of hunting with a dog is fun

I think its great fun. I love squirrel meat. Around here they have competition money hunts with squirrel dogs.

Believe it or not, my squirrel dog was a Lhasa Opsa. She will go out tree one of the many squirrels on our 80 acres and wait for me to shoot it for her.
