squirrel dogs

Them busher dogs are supposedly more of the old strain of mt cur. They don't have any streak blood in them. Streak was more feist looking and hotter nosed that the old strains. That why they usually all darker in color and bigger like Reuben said. Also the colder nose better working on old cold coon feeder tracks. I like killin and eating squirrel so it don't matter the strain to me. As far as price of a good squirrel dog they are about like the hog dogs I reckon. As expensive or cheap as you want. Saw high power comp dogs go from 10-15 grand. I payed 600 for my old gyp but have turned down 3000. She just needed to be hunted to get right. She's not comp type dog but I can fill a bunch of black pots with squirrel gravy with her. My young red gyp in pic is comp speed dog she can make your tongue hang out if you in squirrel going tree to tree as fast as you unsnap her.
