Anybody own a Feist dog - 24hourcampfire

What do you like vs dislike about them?

Had a couple, and they are good dogs. One we bought that was supposed to be a good squirrel dog, but if you shot a rifle he'd run half a mile. He loved my uncle. Every time he stopped moving the dog would start humping his leg. Dog was good for a laugh if nothing else.

I had one20 years ago. Was a great dog. Died at 3 of heartworms. Had given him Heartguard since I bought him at 7 weeks old. It didn't work.

That was a Mississippi leg hound!!

I’ve never actually owned a feist but have been around them my whole life. The ones I have been around have been squirrel dogs and they were great for that and good personable dogs.

I prefer a Cur over a Feist... better legs IMHO.

Yours or theirs?

TFF I has a German shepherd female that would jump up in the arm of the chair to hump my goofy nephews head he was like 16 or so at the time. Funniest and strangest thing I've ever seen!
