[@sladiewolf]

My SIL and I agree (she's vegan, I'm not) This is the most humane way of dealing with rats, and probably most effective. As long as veterinary care is provided as needed, livestock and people stay safe, this is what these dogs are bred to do. They love hunting and using that drive with their handler. I do enjoy these rat hunts - she's too squeamish, but that's okay. Less poison, traps and unnecessary accidental wildlife decline. Love the videos, always look forward to the next one.

[@sladiewolf]

Fun fact: I live in Alberta. All rats are killed on sight, you cannot even keep dead rats for reptiles, even shipped pre-frozen. We have a massive hog problem here though. A lot of big predators end up in the traps or are poisoned. When "rats" are found in Alberta, it hits the news. No one is talking about the feral pigs.

[@Nirrrina]

I agree that it's a great way to get naturally get rid of the infestation. Especially since the dogs absolutely love it. I still feel sorry for the rats but you gotta deal with it somehow & at least it's quick this way. Unlike glue traps. I watched animal aid have to work so hard to get a native mouse free. If you're going to take out rodents. Then do it in a quick clean way.

Didn’t know they have that many rats living at a farm, they should have more people like you to help catch them

[@JayMeLen]

Little bit of a learning curve with those different rats? The other ones that y'all hunt are suited for the ground. These are definitely roof rats because when you get them in your house/ church it sounds like a heard of tiny buffalo stampeding in your attic. There's nothing like opening a closet door to seeing sets of glowing little beady eyes looking at you. Our church was infested with them and surely could have used your dogs and your minx for that matter to eradicating their little smelly bodies. Where I lived in West Texas we had the roof rats on the inside of the buildings and attics then we had the Norway rats that were anywhere from 11" to 20" nose to tail. Those were scary! I'm so glad you had time to make us another video. 🙂

[@chuckkimber2773]

It takes a LOT of repetitions with Buttercup. There's a switch that flips in her brain and you can see her get "in the zone". It's in large part her terrier breeding for sure and part of it is she just doesn't get the same amount of repetition as Joe's dogs. It takes both. I think you'll see Gypsy progress much faster than Buttercup because of high volume of opportunity. That said, what isn't in the videos is how many Buttercup located for us. Leia is hands down the best nose dog, but Buttercup is probably second , and she very easily learned we can help her get at them. The jagd terriers that were helping were fun to watch, and with more repetition, will probably be very good. Hildi understood it early (she's the blue collar pups mother) and started both locating and catching. The pup just needs experience and maturity. It all just takes time and experience, but there is definitely a disposition factor. Lily is three years old and loves to chase, but will still not bite. Probably never will now. As hard as it is to train a dog like Buttercup to release, she at least has drive to catch. Can't teach release to a dog that won't first catch...

We came across something we think was also chasing the mice - a red belly black snake 🤣 so we didn’t catch any of the mice 🙃 and I wasn’t going to pursue them knowing that a venomous snake was also in there going after them but damn, I know we were so close to catching some! 😭 thing is, I also got the encounter on video and in my shock- was calling the red belly a red back 🤣

When I was in pest control I had the opportunity to hear Dr. Bobby Corrigan speak. He is an expert on rodent behavior & control. He has a book called, Rodent Control: A Practical Guide for Pest Management Professionals. I recommend it. While I was at Presto-X I learned a lot about rodents. Black rats or Roof rats are from tropical climates. That's why they are more often found in the south. They have longer tales to help them balance as they travel through trees since fruit is high on their dietary preferences. Brown rats or Norway rats are adapted for colder, more northern climates.

Even for his first time ratting, blue collar boi at least got into the excitement of it. I'd imagine that's half the battle - getting them excited enough to make them want to chase, catch, and kill the rats - of the game.

I feel like my chihuahua would do great on his team of dogs because my chihuahua is amazing at killing all the rats and mice in my sheds

[@RBarnett421]

Most small breeds and terriers were originally bred for ratting, mousing. It's in their instincts and love to do it. Makes them happier

[@destroyerda1st]

They can use chihuahuas like the minks

[@MIZZKIE]

Maybe somebody should create a line of Chihuahua to help ratting. I'm sure it will immensely improve the breed's quality, because you need a physically sturdy and healthy dog to do an intense job like ratting in small spaces.

[@blazertundra]

@@MIZZKIE it would be pretty easy to do. "Deerhead" chihuahuas are very similar to the original Native dogs that were used to create the AKC breed and often have some prey drive. They're everywhere in AZ and NM. With careful breeding of deerheads with small terriers, I could easily see the result being little 7-lb mouse-murder machines.

I discovered recently that my rescue English Saffordshire terrier is a master pigeon destroyer.
