Do you know if he uses his Setter when he hunts squirrels? Does the dog point them or tree them? Who trained his Setter to hunt squirrels? Did he retrieve them to hand?

I am surprised that he would use the same gun on cats and squirrels. It would seem to me that one would have one gun for hunting cats and one for squirrels. In Texas cats don't hold very well for pointing dogs so it would seem that a cat hunter would use a tightly choked twelve. Now I admit I never hunted cats but just speculating. Could you find out for me? Hunting cats could possibly be something we (me and the dogs) could do in the off-season. Neighborhood is overrun with them.
