My Doxie boy is obsessed with squirrels!?
I often take walks with my mini doxie, and occasionally let him off-leash when on the back quiet country roads. But if he catches site of anything small and furry, he's gone. Is there any method that I can use to keep him nearby even when tempted to run after something? I know most of you will only tell me to keep the leash on him, but I enjoy trusting my dog and letting him wander in front or to the side of me without being completely restrained.My Doxie boy is obsessed with squirrels!?
Nothing that I can think of. That's what they were bred to do, chase and kill small animals. You could try teaching a really solid ';come'; command, but his instinct will probably be greater then training. You could try posting this in the dog section, you may get some more responses.

I keep getting attacked by squirrels...what do i do?
Everytime I go out to my backyard (which is edged by a forest) a squirrel attacks me. Seriously, I have scratches all over me from them. This has happened like six times. Is there anyway to keep them away from me?I keep getting attacked by squirrels...what do i do?
Stop being so nuts =)I keep getting attacked by squirrels...what do i do?
You might have to get in touch with an exterminator. If you don't want the animal killed, you should look for one that humanly traps animals and takes them else where to let them loose. Also, when the animal is caught, you might want to have them take it to a vet to make sure it doesn't have rabies because if this squirrel has scratched you and broke the skin, it could be rabid or have some other problem like parasites that could invade humans also. Surely this is unusual for a wild squirrel to attack you unless it has babies near your house and it is protecting them.
ur lucky, i wish i had squirrels that attacked me, so i could beat the sh*t outa them.
but just do what i would do, get a stick pretend its a sword, and start whacking them. (sorry, ima nerd) :P
well cant be afraid to walk in your own back yard, i say get a bowl, fill it with anti freeze cause its extra sweet so they'll drink it and it poisonous. theyll be droppin from the trees in no time
bring a machine gun with you next time you go out, and then as they get near you just blast them away.
or just stop going out into your backyard.
take a shop-vac with you %26amp; just suck 'em up... lol, seriously, try putting out some mothballs, most animals hate them. it keeps them %26amp; the coons out of my shed
Shoot them. A .22 would obliterate the lil s**t.
seriously?
hav a bowl next 2 u filled with tiny bits of apple nuts etc. and throw it into the forest everytime they come close
kill everyone
GET A FENCE.
attack them.
ROFL

Why did Eve listen to talking tree snakes instead of talking squirrels?
Probably because if the squirrels could have talked in the Garden of Eden, they would have been more interested in conversations about where food was, rather than trying to flatter and trick a woman.
Can you see a squirrel telling a young lady that they should go and try to eat some of that forbidden fruit to gain knowledge?? No, but I could see the squirrel saying to Eve, ';come on, come on, let's go get that fruit'; and then the squirrel would have demanded all of the fruit for themselves!!Why did Eve listen to talking tree snakes instead of talking squirrels?
Eve is a fictional character.Why did Eve listen to talking tree snakes instead of talking squirrels?
My question is if you believe in the bible, and the bible never said that talking animals was normal, why didn't Eve freak out when the snake talked? And if we are to assume animals did talk, why did they stop talking? Can anyone else see how totally ridiculous this thought process is?
Because..';she loved talking with the snake. He made little sounds with his tongue. The snake made her feel good inside...';-Laurie Anderson the snake is just a metaphor, as with most of the older old testiment. Obviously it's about good vs. evil and snakes are the symbol of evil.
My theory: It represents oral sex and the snake was his penis and she wanted to take a bite of the apple on top but he thought it was wrong, or was afraid she would 'bite it'. After all -it's another way that ancient man blamed all his mistakes on listening to the woman. She took the fall or was thrown under the bus by those ancient wisemen who were trying to explain what 'IT' is all about.
Squirrely, I think it was the trouser snake that she was really after. ; )
LOL
Imagine the catastrophe if she DID listen to the talking squirrel.
Because fruit tastes better than acorns?
Because she knew the squirrel was nuts...she SHOULD have listened to God's Kitty.
Meows! =^-^=
Because the snake had a long hard tail, hehe
Because she was stupid - duh!! Only the Squirrel can lead us.
Satan posessed the snake....ugh you all know this
im letting out air
We'd all have been better off if she had, I'm sure. The squirrel would have told her to eat nuts, not fruit, and the nut tree was not forbidden.
Oh, well; maybe next time.
The squirrel was off with the moose ... the snake was all she had at the time.
If she had she might have eaten Adams nuts by mistake
Where's that talking donkey when you need him? We need Balaam to chime in!
rocky and bullwinkle didn't appear til after they left the garden
The squirrels put the snake up to it. Didn't want to lose their legs.

how do you know they're genetically enhanced? you should go chase them and scare them away and hope they don't come attack you!!
Is it a well-organized army, or a rag-tag army of squirrels? Your best bet would be to put together a make-shift squirrel costume (squirrels are smart, but pretty easy to fool), place a few medals on your chest, and a few stars on your shoulders. Walk out to the army, and announce yourself as a Squirrel General.
Good luck, soldier.

Squirrels, rabbits and rats as food?
They are a problem now in the UK. So why do we not eat them? Lots of recipes for rabbit but how do I prepare and cook squirrel and rat. My first attempt at eating rat was not to good, it was a stringy meat but then I only microwaved it. If I knew how to cook them properly maybe they would be OK.
The cookery books are no good, just the same things all the time, no guide to cooking different meats..Squirrels, rabbits and rats as food?
Hi there,
Below I have typed two honest-to-God recipes I have in a book full of recipes from the southern United States, where people do eat squirrels on occasion. I've never tried it. As far as rats, I'm not sure that would be a good idea to try. They can carry lots of diseases and are rather dirty animals because they eat garbage and dead things alot. %26gt;:P
Broiled Squirrel
Squirrel is one of the finest and tenderest of all wild meats. It's flavor is mild, rarely gamey. There is no need for soaking, and seldom any need for parboiling. They should be cleaned as soon as possible after shooting, but skinning may wait until they're ready to be cooked. Clean squirrels and rub with salt and pepper. Brush with fat and place on a hot broiling rack. Broil 40 minutes, turning frequently and basting with drippins every 10 minutes. Serve with gravy from drippins and season with 1 to 2 tablespoons of lemon juice.
Fried Squirrel
Make sure all the hair is cleaned off the squirrel. Cut it up. If it's old and tough, put it in the pressure cooker for about 15-20 minutes. Salt and Pepper it. Cover with flour and fry in a cast iron skillet on a medium fire until brown and tender. This is a real sweet meat. You can smother a squirrel just like a chicken.
Enjoy.Squirrels, rabbits and rats as food?
Rats carry disease and are pretty nasty. There is a reason why they are considered to be vermin.
Squirrel and rabbit, on the other hand, are excellent food sources, both low in fat and high in protein.
SQUIRREL/RABBIT/CHICKEN SMOTHER FRIED
Both squirrel and rabbit can be cooked the same way. Cut up into pieces as you would chicken. Mix flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish. Dredge the pieces of meat in the mixture then drop into hot oil, about 1/2'; oil in a large skillet. Cook over medium heat until the underside browns, turn over and cook other side. Remove meat from skillet to platter. Pour off all but about 2 T of the fat and residue in the skillet. Add 1/4 c. flour to drippings, stir over medium heat until brown. Add 2 c. milk/water mixture, a little at a time, stirring constantly til all is incorporated. Add meat, cover, turn down to simmer and simmer about 30- 45 minutes until meat is succulently tender. Great over rice!
Time saving version: brown meat as indicated, remove from skillet, pour off oil into tin can and discard. Add 1 can cream of mushroom soup and a can of water to skillet, add meat. Bring to boil, stir, cover, lower heat to simmer, cook as indicated.
I know some people eat rats but don't think I'll be one of them, however squirrel and rabbit are good. We make squirrel dumplings, stew or boil squirrel, remove from cooking liquid to cool, reserve liquid, mix 2 cups self rising flour with 1/4 cup oil and 1 cup milk, re heat reserved liquid and add meat picked from squirrel, 2 tablespoons of butter, 1 cup milk and enough water to have room to cook dumplings, bring liquid to a boil and drop dumplings by teaspoons, add dumplings until liquid is thickened. turn to low and cook for about 20 minutes until dumpling are done inside when cut. enjoy
Typically, you want to cook meat until a meat thermometer reaches 150 degrees F in the center.
However, there are recipes for these meats. YouTube has many mini cooking shows people put up, including for these meats.
Rabbit: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_qu鈥?/a>
Squirrel: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_qu鈥?/a>
Rat (I found only one for a large rat in the Louisiana called ';Nutria';): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuXEaNdwr鈥?/a>
Don't eat rat, they are scavengers and eat poop and rotten things. Squirrel meat is good, it can be cooked like rabbit, pan seared or stewed. Lots of recipes out there for it.
OMG DO NOT EAT RAT!!!! JUST KILL THE $#%%26amp;*@$!!!!
As far as rabbit and squirrell I know people that eat them. Just look up sites that are about eating wild game.
didn't you pay attention in history your people got the bubonic plague from eating rats.

Only if they are quietly discussing philosophy.If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it does it still scare the #$% out of the squirrels
No, squirrils are fast and always alert. I wouldn't even make them shy.
And it also depends on where the squirril is, like if its a large forest then the squirril might not know.

Melbourne zoo have a captive colony of palm squirrels, but they may not be on display, I didn't see them when I was there.Do they display squirrels in Australian zoos?

Why do Squirrels spin their tales?
They're born storytellers.
Or did you mean ';tails';?Why do Squirrels spin their tales?
It's a squirrels sign that something is not right in the area. Often they will do it when humans are around, so they spin their tales to notify other squirrels in the area that something isn't right and to be on the alert. You'll see them do it when hawks are around too.Why do Squirrels spin their tales?
What Tiny and Brnone said: It's a form of communication. We have a lot of squirrels around here, and usually when they're twitching their tails there is a hunting cat nearby.
They use their tails for balance, so if there is a wind, or they're just a little off-balance, they'll move their tails to compensate for it. I just fall, instead.
I agree, it is a form of communication, probably a warning sign to other squirrels about danger.
Because of the stimuli in their nerve retrievers spasm when they injure the pressure pads on their femurs.

Can canadian squirrels be washed?
At the pet shop the squirrels were kept in a very small space and they peed on each other...Can canadian squirrels be washed?
Sure, throw them in a washing machine on delicate.
Of course they can be washed, just don't use any products without consulting a vet. Water won't kill them.Can canadian squirrels be washed?
Squirrels, like all wild animals, don't need washing, they will care for themselves. Give them plenty of water an dry bedding and they will be fine. I don't know if they make good pets, but I hear they tast just like chicken. (just kidding)
Yeah, just put 'em in the washer and let the fun begin.
Sure. Use the kitchen sink or a dishpan outdoors, if the weather is warm. You don't need any soap and should be careful about using commercial products. Hold it firmly in a towel and gently lower it in lukewarm (like a baby bottle warm) water. Rub it gently. Avoid the face. Be sure to have another towel handy to dry it off. Hold on tight and keep the squirrel away from your face, too. It won't like the experience. Wear gloves. It might bite you. Good luck!
yea but it might clog up the toilet
eww...lol um yeah I don't see why not, but aren't squirrels wild animals?
No they will melt.

Southern flying squirrels as pets?
Does any one know if it is legal to have one as a pet in new hampshire. or who I call to find out the info?Southern flying squirrels as pets?
i believe esbilac is actually best for baby flying squirrels. i don't know if they are legal in new hampshire, but i think you call the local wildlife agency. a local veterinarian might also know... please realize that they do not make the best 'pets.' they are chewers and not very cuddly at all. they can be fun, but they are nothing like a rabbit or ferret, etc.Southern flying squirrels as pets?
Whether or not it's legal or not I can't say but if they are young enough to not have their eyes open feed Goat milk (cow milk will starve them to death) every three or four hours, handle them frequently and keep them on a heating pad with towels n the bottom so they can crawl around and adjust themselves to the right temperature. As they grow up be careful how you handle them and never,never grasp one tight enough to restrain it. Cup it in your hands and move it where you want it and release. Remember always there is no such thing as a pet squirrel only another wild squirrel who has lost the natural fear of human beings and should be treated as such.Any time you grasp a squirrel tightly you will instantly be bitten by it. Email me if you need any more advise.
i believe esbilac is actually best for baby flying squirrels. i don't know if they are legal in new hampshire, but i think you call the local wildlife agency. a local veterinarian might also know... please realize that they do not make the best 'pets.' they are chewers and not very cuddly at all. they can be fun, but they are nothing like a rabbit or ferret, etc.Southern flying squirrels as pets?
Whether or not it's legal or not I can't say but if they are young enough to not have their eyes open feed Goat milk (cow milk will starve them to death) every three or four hours, handle them frequently and keep them on a heating pad with towels n the bottom so they can crawl around and adjust themselves to the right temperature. As they grow up be careful how you handle them and never,never grasp one tight enough to restrain it. Cup it in your hands and move it where you want it and release.

Why do squirrels have bushy tails?
Excellent question! Not all squirrels do have bushy tails, but most of those that do use them for balance as they leap and climb. Think of the fellow on the high wire using an umbrella, it's the same sort of thing.
Are the squirrels peeved that the FBI is investigating their nuts?
yes, why do you think squirrels are always hiding their nuts?Are the squirrels peeved that the FBI is investigating their nuts?
No, the squirrels are happy that the Feds are finally paying attention to their nuts... the Rebel Squirrel Faction, or the R.S.F., has been acting out for years, hoarding their Nuts in a secret bunker under Telegraph Hill, in San Francisco, CA. They won't be happy that I have exposed them, but i know in the End they will thank me. The Elves in that region have become so concerned that We, The Keepers, have been called in to negotiate the situation. As of yesterday, October 16th, the Elven Faction of Ontario, (Mechu), is still unwilling to comply to the demands of the United Federation of Being... We are Wizards...We know the Way....right? What was the question again?Are the squirrels peeved that the FBI is investigating their nuts?
To B.Y.O.B.,
That was *supposed* to be a secret! Now I have been requested, by the Ontario faction, to go out and buy all the nut liqueurs that I can find at the LCBO. Do you have any idea what that will do to our nut hoarding budget?
???????? I don't think the FBI likes nuts ??????? Well ur question didn't make sense either!!!!

Repel squirrels?
any tips on how to keep them from digging up flowers beds? they are very destructive little creaturesRepel squirrels?
My grandmother told me many years ago to keep the squirrels and chipmunks from digging up and eating your flower bulbs, wrap your hair from your brush around the bulbs or roots of the flowers and that will keep them from digging up your flowers, because the hair is so fine and they don't like the feel of it in their mouth, so they will only try it once. I have done that now for many years and have never had a problem. You can also use thread or a fine yarn. It all has worked for me.Repel squirrels?
do you have a dog?
After using Dried Blood, found at the garden center, they leave my flower beds alone. Sprinkle around where they dig and re-apply occasionally.
blood meil works good (they don't like the smell of it) also cayanne pepper works great, but it has to be re applied after a rain
I feed the little critters, they are so entertaining. Try feeding them away from your flower beds then maybe they will leave the flowers alone.
P.S. I have tried the Cayenne Pepper where I don't want them and it didn't work .
buy a dog or...fence in your bed. You will need to cover the top with fencing, too. I use Hardware cloth (like chicken wire but with finer grid) to protect my tomatos and pepper.
try moth balls they hate the smell

Squirrels and Suet...???
I thought squirrels didn't like suet? They are eating it all up. How do I keep them out of it? I have it in a suet holder hanging from a tree.Squirrels and Suet...???
Rubbermaid makes a nice, effective, squirrel guard that you hang from the tree and then hang the feeder under it. I have about 8 of them. I have had them for many years and they show no sign of wearing out. I bought mine at Lowes.Squirrels and Suet...???
put some pepper around, they don't like pepper
Sprinkle cayenne pepper on it and around the base of the tree. The birds cannot discern heat...therefore it does not bother them...but the squirrels can smell it, so they leave it alone.
You can't keep them out of it. Squirrels are going to eat it. You might try hanging it off a fence post if you have one, but don't count on that deterring the squirrels.cleansing products

Why does the Bible have talking donkeys but no typing squirrels?
God hasn't gotten around to it... he is making a sequel to the bible, and you will be in it!!Why does the Bible have talking donkeys but no typing squirrels?
You weren't born yet, of course!Why does the Bible have talking donkeys but no typing squirrels?
The Donkeys talked them out of it.
Because he left out all the good stuff, thats why the books so boring!
Because it's fiction! We know so, because we have our own typing squirrel!
they didn't have typewriters or keyboards back then! Silly squirrel.........
Because the bible is only fiction
Well, talking donkeys is one thing.... but typing squirrels?!
Because the typewriter hadn't been invented yet obviously.
Dont be silly...there were not typewriters then as for takling donkeys..its just a way to fool people...( like the rest of the book) someone had his hand up the donkeys a rse and was being a ventriloquist
Was god a big green ogre? Did he also have a puss in boots in the bible along side the talking donkey?
What?
It was supposed to remain a mystery.. bad squirrel!!!
You're a little out of luck is all, it's just that the Bible was written before the time of the typing squirrels. Computers didn't exist then.

Put a little hot sauce on a paper towel and wipe down the rubber parts of your blades... They hate pepper...
