All 3 would be considered top squirrel dogs today there wasn't a nickels difference in how they treed squirrels,they just flat got some squirrels treed. Where they bred to tree squirrels. NO or was it I spent every waking moment in the woods.
I too hunted every chance I had as a kid...most every dog I ever had in those days were mutts and they sure enough were hunting dogs...caught lots of game including deer I shot with a 22...I stayed in trouble because all my free time I was hunting my dogs...
If I had to go live in the wild and I had a choice of a gun with a case of shells or 3 or 4 mutts I would choose the mutts because we would catch something to eat every day...no doubt
