| Funny! My two will definitely help out! Couver even has a 'squirrel patrol' shirt that he can wear. We will make sure those squirrels get their exercise.

I just spent 30 minutes outside with my girls and they were chasing squirrels from tree to tree.

YT 1000 Club Member | As most here, I don't have to encourage my guys to chase Squirrels. Those, Possums and various other Varmints are natural "attractions" to our vigorous little companions. Though I encourage this activity (chasing) I'd just as soon not see them do any "catching", so, I make sure that my resident population (of Squirrels) is well fed (bread/scraps/other) and water is available for them. I feel if I have a healthy enough Squirrel population, they'll take care of themselves, and everyone will have fun in the chase.

| Georgie just loves helping his fellow furry 4-legged friends. He always makes sure they are running all around the backyard and staying in shape I swear we have squirrels that tease him LOL

| Is there a yorkie out there that doesn't chase squirrels? Tia loves them but Ally is totally obsessed. She always has been. When she was younger, I was holding her, walking across my neighbor's yard, and she started screaming because she saw a squirrel. A car was driving by and stopped because they thought I was hurting her! They were really concerned because Ally was going bonkers too.... |

| I think my two will join everyone in increasing the knowledge about National Squirrel Awareness month by chasing them too! My two really like to study the squirrel's ability to climb trees and then attempt it.

| Count my Canyon in - he's a fast squirrel chaser. My Brynley could care less about the squirrels - so she can be a cheerleader. |

| Yorkies are so thoughtful in keeping all squirrels in their area as fit and aerobic as possible. Those in our backyard run marathons from Tibbe daily. I pray he never ever catches one though, too!!!!

YT 1000 Club Member | You ARE absolutely right ! I see this almost every day. One will just sit there when my guys go outside to Potty, and when they see the Squirrel they start "stalking". Then when they charge, the Squirrel will allow them to get close, THEN do a fast cut to the right or left and quickly run up a tree and chatter, as they flip their tails back and forth. Just like they're laughing at how slow my guys are. It's comical

| I used to get a lot of exercise chasing those fat little squirrels out of my bird feeders! Then I started feeding the cat population and now I hardly ever see a squirrel around! The cats have taken care of the mice that lived under my shed, too. Gracie thinks she has spotted big game when she sees one out the window! |
