My dog just killed and in the process got bit by a squirrel that could not run like some thing was wrong with its back legs and kinda hopped in the air a bit instead of running and was holding its head weird. After my dog had almost killed it and I got her away i saw that it could use its back legs still. Should keep the dead squirrel for some test? Also my dog is up to date on her rabies shots.
Here is a Pic of the little girl

I'd say keeping the squirrel for a couple days (frozen, in a sealed bag that no-one will open) wouldn't hurt - and might help - though I doubt you have much to worry about.
Come to think of it, though... you're probably more at risk by handling the squirrel than your dog was by catching it. So I'd use gloves, and wash down afterwards. I wouldn't see a vet, though, unless the dog started showing symptoms. FYI - I am not a medical professional. |

never thought about poison  that would make sense. It was almost like it was drunk do they have drinking problems  Any fruit trees dropping fruit? Squirrels will get drunk on fermenting fruit. No fruit trees dropping this is Minnesota we just had the snow leave last week

| it did look like this kinda but more active LINK I guess there could have been a High school graduation party or BBQ that it got beer from. |
