Squirrels are just rats with a good PR. Nutrias have super pelts, almost waterproof. The hat in that Sinefeld's episode was not nutria, rabbit probably or something.
Whoa!!! The day I feed a dog of mine that will be the day I get a street mutt. I once heard of a girl who got a white mouse from some pet store or some place. Thought it was perfectly healthy and oop it gave her the plague. Oh, well. To each his own. Well I guess you do have you ratters that will chase mice and rats down and before you know it-- As for me, I don't care for the little pests. If ever I saw a rat come near my dog it wouldn't get far with me around. Bats and rats carry rabies and other diseases that I don't want my dog to come into contact with even though he's had his rabies shots. Actually he's our/my mom's little Welsh Corgie and I have yet to get my own dog some day--a bicolor gsd, if I'm lucky.
I don't see how feeding hole rats and mice to a dog is harmful, it is as natural as you can get and probally great for them. I would feed it to my dogs, but I have 7 pet rats and I like rats! That is like being a cat lover and feeding your dog cats! I don't even give my snakes rats, they eat special made snake sausage. I would say if you don't have a problem with handling frozen rats then go ahead and feed them to your dog!
Rat sushi is a very commmon delecacy here in WI - put a little of it on some quality Wisconsin Cheese and you will never eat fish sushi again.
I send my son down to the old chicken coup for the rats. We keep the corn there - nothing like a corn fed rat kabob. The problem is they do get to 20 lbs.
You should see my 17 year old 6' 2" son run when he has a 20 pound rat behind him. Now he will only go to the coup when he has back-up with a shotgun. But the rats hide in the trees. You always know theres a big one when they both come running (shotgun in hand) because one jumped out of the tree at them.
