Abstract: Let $f$ be a positive definite ternary quadratic form. We assume that $f$ is non-classic integral, that is, the norm ideal of $f$ is $z$. We say $f$ is {it strongly $s$-regular } if the number of representations of squares of integers by $f$ satisfies the condition in Cooper and Lam's conjecture in cite {cl}. In this article, we prove that there are only finitely many strongly $s$-regular ternary forms up to equivalence if the minimum of the non zero squares that are represented by the form is fixed. In particular, we show that there are exactly $207$ non-classic integral strongly $s$-regular ternary forms that represent one (see Tables 1 and 2). This result might be considered as a complete answer to a natural extension of Cooper and Lam's conjecture.
