I don't understand that question.

You start Squid; it listens for incoming connections and sends them on to the 
external servers (and gets the responses etc, etc...)

At the same time, you run the packet sniffer on the machine where Squid is 
running, and it collects all the traffic passing between Squid and the rest of 
the Internet.

Then you make your request/s with a browser (or wget, curl, as you wish), and 
let Squid do its thing, and let the packet sniffer capture what happened.

After it's all over, you then have a packet capture which you can analyse (eg: 
using wireshark) to find out what Squid sent to the server/s, and what came 
back again.
