What happen to Leia?
She was just having a day off. This video only shows part of one day of ratting. The whole job actually lasted an entire week.
I just asked Maggie the samething, I kind of figured she's resting I mean she is double almost the age of Gypsy. Gosh it would be awful for anything to happen to her I hate it. I still can't watch the Boon or boss video it hurts my heart way to much.
These are not my pets nor will I ever meet them and I cried a week over Sherni 😭 😪 😢. I know you all do your best with the fur working babies but sometimes things happen out of our control and it's really hard to deal with.
I hope all is having a bright beautiful 2024 🎉🎉🎉❤❤💙💙🐕🦮🐕🦺🐾🐾🐾🐾 I really don't like that I don't have a black pup on here.
I'm so glad I'm not the only person who gets completely invested into Joe's animals haha! Bindi is just epic, such a shame there's a bsl here 😢
@@MichelleRauKlimas739501"fur working babies" is crazy. Are you one of those insane cat ladies?
Man, if you have a badger on your team Joe, it would be a complete package of hunters with all bases covered.
Not all, but you don't currently have a need for a lizard on HOT summer hunts.
All he'd need is a falcon, just for funsies.
Why is this not already an animated major motion picture?
@@feraynironmane8101
Wouldn't use a falcon for a ratting job, they're mostly bird-eaters, but a hawk for day jobs and an owl for the night... @@feraynironmane8101
Gonna have to start calling him beast master here soon. Bro is gonna have birds before long.

Having run out of animals to train to hunt rats, Mr Carter begins training rats to hunt rats
Lmaoooo he’ll come full circle eventually. 😂😂
Mr Carter... I about lost my marbles reading this headline... for about 16 years I always wanted a trained badger... I spoke to a old timer who use to work for the forest service back in the day and he said for a ferocious critter they tame like dogs..will follow you around everywhere.... Wanted a badger ever since!
I'm from Scotland and was curious as to whether you guys have badgers over there in the states....now I learn that you do. We have tons of them here...never knew they could be trained. My neighbour used to have lots of chickens then two badgers came by one night and attacked them...they didn't kill them but a few nights later they came back...I heard the noise but thought it was cats fighting until I saw them running by my house. My neighbour's entire flock was murdered that night. Very sad. I had never seen them so close unless they were road kill. Beautiful animals and I am now intrigued as to how they would do as trained rat catchers haha.
European badgers have been trained to hunt rats and rabbits similar to American badgers. There's stories of both types of badgers partnering with canids, American badgers with coyotes. European badgers with foxes and raccoon dogs. Taking advantage of each others' strengths and weaknesses in the same way Joseph is hoping to with his dogs and a badger.@@nuancematters
@nuancematters it would be easier to train them as chicken killers. 😅😅😅😂😂😂
Bindi is getting some great working muscle on her haunches, she's really growing out of her teen phase into a solid hunter. What a good smart pup
The pit putting them in the bucket that's some amazing training and a very intelligent dog impressed
There's tons of training videos on her. Her names Bindi. You should check them out, great videos. I similarly trained mind to throw trash away and put clothes I drop in the dryer, so it's a useful technique.
@@MooreArts-Crafts-and-Pets Really?? I will, I have tried to train my dog, but haven't managed it yet. Those are the sorts of things I need help with. She is just now an adult.
@@primesspct2 Yup. Patience and consistency helps a lot. Sometimes you gotta tweak things because every dog is different. For example, my one dogs gets things after a few tries, my other one that's anxious I have to repeat calmly 100 times before he does. Lol
Hey I had a pet badger when I was in high school. It was just like a ferret and smelled the same. It was definitely trainable and friendly.
Did it smell bad?
What happened to it?
@@bernadettecartin Badger hats are fashionable
@@bernadettecartinwell let's just say kids shouldn't have exotic animals as pets
I draw a compleate blank when it comes to understanding Badger or Honny Badger behavior.
I would love to see you train a badger
The very THOUGHT of Joe training a badger is giving me conniptions.
@@Noitartst😂😂😂
Agreed, you made a challenge to train minks.
Got another Challenge to test the limit.
Train a bobcat
What would the bobcat be specialized to hunt?@@TravellerTinker
I think that you could just drop Bindi off at a location and leave a bucket there for her come back a couple/ few hours later and she'd have gotten all the rats / mice by herself! Such a smart Doggy 😊😁🤷🏻♂️
The fact that you train them so well and bindi even puts it in the bucket for you is amazing.
Next thing I expect is for the Minkman to train a rat to kill other rats! Ratssassin!
😂
Maybe that rat will be lost and come upon 4 turtles floating in some ooze..........
Actually it has been done rats training to eat rats
I hunted rodents with an Australian Sheppard when I was a kid. There's something magical about partnering with an animal like that. You both work as a team. Each knows the other's part. There's an awareness between dog and human. She knew when I was making my move and where the mice/rats were coming from. We kept in constant communication and understood each other completely. I miss that dog so much.
Now I've got a Jack Russell with ZERO prey drive. I've never seen anything like it in my life. There's a colony of packrats who've set up a tunnel system right under her feet in the dog run and she couldn't care less. One pops it's head up, they check each other out, then the rat pops back down and she's unfazed. The positive is that she's friendly with the cats, so there is that. She's pretty much useless as far as 'dog things' go, but my heart's still going to rip in half when she's gone. Sweetest pup I've ever had.
My ex wife has a Scotty puppy that gets moles in their backyard. I keep telling her it's a terrier and that's what they were bred for. I had an English Bulldog that would chase mice. He never caught one but he wanted to lol
If you do manage to get a license to own and work with Badgers, it would be FASCINATING! We would stand to learn so so much about them and I would love to see that happen so best of luck. Also, you could try using plant-based soaps such as Seventh Generation, that shouldn't leave any harmful residue in soil, especially the variety that is free of dyes and perfumes. Love what you do.
definitely, you'll need to get the badger when he's a baby tho. so you'll have full human training + interaction.
Duh
@@hopeless7362 what what chicken butt...
oh yes for the record, make sure it's a honey badger ! :)
I like the team of dogs you have now. I haven't watched your channel for a long while because I was very sad about Sherni.
If anyone could train a badger it would be you!
Kudos to you admitting that you have a Working bred APBT.... Most people try to call them pittys or bully or staff terrier. Awesome working dog specimen from this retired APBT breeder.
Bindi has consistently been on top. She's a really good dog. When there consistent like that that's how you know you have a good dog.
I love what a good dog Bindi is.❤😊
If anyone in the entire world could raise and train a badger for ratting, it would be none other than you. Honestly you’d go down in history as a legend
Can you go down as a Legend twice?
Badger might be harder than raptor. But you like to take the challenge.
Would love to see some badger training videos!!!
While that idea is intriguing and could work, I was duped into thinking this video was gonna be your attempt at training a live Badger! I was disappointed when I didn't see you training but am excited to see if you train one!! Keep up the good work!!
I think if Joe could have a wish, he'd want 5 clones of Bindi's, in small, medium and large sizes.
🤣
Best wishes on you badger adventures. I think your state should recognize your special skilled mink and allow you to train and own a badger for a trial period . Learn all you can and I am looking forward to your videos
This is why you're one of my favorite humans outside of my family 👍
Musteilids rock.
Joe, wishing you and your Family a very Happy New Year 2024. Also Happy New Year to all minks and dogs. sending love, from Jacqui, Perth, Western Australia.
It's so nice having stats for your doges
Happy new years! i just started watching your videos randomly about a week ago and just realized it right now and immediately subscribed, i know all the dogs already from just how many videos ive been watching and i absolutely LOVE THEM, Bindi really takes after Boss! Happy New years! :)
That strange creature really confused me too! 😂😂😂
the badger idea sounds REALLY cool, I hope you can train one, I would love to see that video
Bindi so pleased with herself, putting her rat in the bucket❤
I like that you have the score posted for us to keep track during the action.
I would have doubts if I didnt see you train the monitor lizard but since then I dont think there’s any animal you cant train💯💯
That monitor was horrifyingly fast. Just spooky.
I love watching Bindi work so much! She's such a professional at this.
Then she dutifully puts it right into the bucket! She knows exactly what she is doing!! GOOD GIRL BINDI!!!!
It's been a pleasure watching Bindi grow and evolve as a hunter! Look at her go 🤩☺️
The most amazing part is when they deposit the rats in the bucket. Blows me away every time lol
Only one dog knows how to do that, Bindi.
@@metarugia3981 okay
Bindi, is the cutest and most intelligent dog I think I’ve ever come across, she really respects you and has such nice manners
I love your videos man. keep up the good work.
wow. cant wait to see that digging machine in action!
Oh my god, this force will be unstoppable.
I love that bindi puts the rats she got into the bucket. Such a smart girl ❤
This reminded me of the English bloke who trained foxes to hunt rats. I'd love to see it if you went ahead with it.
Lol just comment on this would carry 5 rats was was apparently way better then any terrier And had the speed of the big dogs if anyone could do this this day and age its Joseph
I haven’t watched in months. Bindi is so calm and smart.
This video shows that Bindi is always on high alert while ratting.
Happy New Year to the Carter Family! May Tag continue to improve as I wish the best of health to your crew.
Happy New Year, Joe and best wishes to you and yours for 2024!
Good to see Bindy getting into the habit of bucket! ⭐🙂👍
Brian Nettleton, renamed Calum Buchannon by Alfred Wight (aka James Herriot) in his book series “All Creatures Great and Small”, had a pet badger named Marilyn. She was always on his shoulder and went everywhere with him - vet appointments (he was a veterinarian, too) the pub,… everywhere.
I love that series too! Although I’d assume that the badger in the book is a European Badger and not an American Badger given the setting. While ecologically similar, I’d expect an American badger to be much less laid back.
@@earthtamerronan6352 Probably true. I saw an interview with his wife and Marilyn bit her in the foot when she got up in the middle of the night. She wasn’t allowed to sleep in their room after that. 🤣
@@earthtamerronan6352 That's difficult to say. Both kinds of badgers are typically very nervous animals, it's just that european badgers will usually try to retreat into their dens first whereas american badgers prefer to put on a threat display.
As a matter of fact, I wouldn't be surprised if american badgers were a bit easier to start training, simply because they don't immediately try to book it when they notice a human nearby.
I LOVED those books! But for some reason don't remember Marilyn at all, which surprises me, since I've always liked badgers. It's been years since I read them though, but still. . . I also loved the story by Allan W. Eckert about the little boy who got lost in . . . Manitoba I think? It was fiction but maybe not. A badger cared for him and he was eventually found. Trying to remember the title . . .
@@bernadettecartin Incident at Hawk's Hill, indeed based in Manitoba. Apparently Disney made a film based off the novel in 1975.
I'm amazed they don't attack eachother. This is great!
I love these videos. They are so addictive!
Badgers are really neat critters.
I cannot wait for mink man's badger arc. I wonder how the training would be like
That Bindi is something else 😳 she's such a great ratter, and disciplined so well. The rest of the crew is good dog's too, but none can really hold a candle to Bindi's rattin' ❤😊
I had a 15 pound, white, mini dachshund. That little dude was a champion mouse hunter. He could chase them just about anywhere and he always killed them in one or 2 quick shakes them brought them to me. No training at all. Love you Loki
WHAT CANT THIS MAN TRAIN !?!?!?
Democrats 😂
@@my3sons386 I can't with you people..
@@my3sons386 same thing as rats! 😂
@@CircussCake Classic text book liberal response. "I literally can't even" stfu and grow a pair of balls.
@@my3sons386I can train Republicans. It’s quite easy to teach them to rob, steal and lie! Easy peasy
Great job on this video,my dog loves watching yours work from the couch😅
It's not hard to bet on Bindi. She has all the smarts of Sherni + more, and swiftly growing into the wisdom of Boss. She's gonna be leader of the pack for a LONG time methinks.
I need to see badger training videos, that would be insane! Bindi is the ultimate machine!
Beautiful job man!
Bindi is sooo smart!!!!! they all work and play very hard!
Man I thought you were kidding, but you serious 😂 I’m so glad I’m along on the journey to watch how this unfolds!
Outstanding training!
Love them Pit Bulls❤
If anyone could get a badger it would be you. It’s very apparent that your animals are very well cared for and excellently trained, and their natural drive and abilities are able to flourish with your hunts. All your animals’ lives are enriched working with you.
Man!! Bindi is a beast! A badger tho would be awesome to see you train!
the level you train those dogs to is incredible
Badgers are really Brave and crazy creatures, if u can tame One its gonna get crazy
That cameradude has skills.
i remember all your old dogs and minks Sherni and mamba those were good times
I remember your videos would pop up every time , now u grew to big and they just show u sometimes! U can train anything, get a Elephant next or a Kamodo Dragon
I had a patterdale terrier 25 years ago. He was a beast of a hunter. His name was Digger!
Where my grandmother is from in Wicklow Ireland, they had a Glen of Imaal Terrier. They are a short broad powerful dog, used to dig out badgers. They are still around. I'd imagine they would outperform a badger. They are quiet and very powerful, not fast, but they will dig faster than most and would be a good addition to a team.
Excellent dogs and bindi is a total killer nice one man 👊👍
Bindi is such an awesome dog.
My mother had a pet badger when she was small. I have a picture of her with it wrapped around her neck. She would shock the restaurant customers when she walked in like that. Her mom ran the restaurant. This was in the 1930s in South Dakota.
Bindi is so smart I love her
Do you ever give your dogs dog puzzles or homemade puzzles to work their brain as they grow and you train them?
Bindi is well trained. Super intelligent pooch! To the bucket and everything.
Is there a vid on what you do to train them? Including how you get them to put them in the bucket?
Thanks for linking to the photographer!
BINDI the WONDERDAWG !
What a magnificent K9.
Start reserving the “www badger bloke” domain name now! PS, Bindi is the most amazing dog ever. She completely changed my mind about Pit Bulls.
Usually when u see a bad pit bull it’s due to the owner failing to train the dog or they want it to be mean to protect there stuff and ends up getting loose at some point
Bindi is also both well trained, and get's plenty of small things to sate her killing instinct. Can't say I'd see her unaliving a neighbor kid.
Most important thing here is that Bindi isn't from a fighting bloodline.
Hahaha I haven’t seen ya channel for a while.
Poor Tag. She still wants the rat to herself 😂😂
"He still wants the rat to himself 😂😂"
All Joe's dogs are females now, after the passing of Boss.
@@metarugia3981 I fixed it for you. I knew that. Being dyslexic is a challenge matey. I didn’t check my spelling twice
I absolutely love your ratting videos and your dogs are amazing ❤❤
I love how Bindi is trained to deposit them in their bucket. GOOD GIRL BINDI!!!
Badgers and coyotes are often seen working together as they work in a similar fashion to you, your mink and your dogs. Badgers dig holes and chase critters down in the hole while coyotes wait up top for any that escape out the back door.
Well done doggies and a special well done to Bindi for winning this one, Joseph l hope that you get the badger to add to your team, and finally guys have a great successful 2024 season to you all, tfs x Julie 🇬🇧
Bindi is such a chomper and so cute when she puts the dead rats in the bucket!😁
If you get a badger you can be the Mustelid Man! Next up we need an excuse for a trained wolverine and maybe a yellow-throated marten, or three. I think you're right, a badger would be an amazing addition.
And a river otter for muskrat.
Above all, I have to call you super-genious; training these diverse types animals to do jobs that were never done b4.
Bindi puts the rats in the bucket. What a smart dog!
2:07 hahaha me and homie had the same thought but I was thinking it was a rare shinny 😭😭😂
Joe, you have an awesome team 👍
Good job, cameraman!
badgers are such cool animals
Idk anything about this channel or this genre but damn those are some impressively trained dogs. Good job
Cant wait to see the badger
Bindi is so switched on, what a dog!
Bindi is so incredible. I do Barn Hunt with my APBT and he has so much fun but I'd love to put him in a real setting with loose rats. He'd absolutely love it.
Great job 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I read the novel "Incident at Hawk's Hill" when I was a boy, about badgers adopting a child.
Bindi absolutely slaying it, MVP (Most Valuable Pupper) of the day
I miss sherni and boss 😢
