I grew up through the 70's & 80's with black n tan feists for pets & my dad did lots of squirrel hunting with them. I can literally name off about 10 different dogs we had that were all related from the same family. They were all good hunters, except one......."Patty Cake" was just a little lovable pup, but wasn't much of a hunter. They all were good natured dogs except one......."Miss Shagg" was a B!

"Big Um" was my all time favorite! He was a one cool dog and I was so heartbroken when he disappeared. Neighbor probably shot him, but we never knew for sure.

I have a soft spot for those feist dogs. I would not hesitate to get another if I was in the market for a good family & hunting dog.
