Our dog is a Treeing Fiest that was feral and trapped by the county animal control. Took a while to get her to accept domestication but she's turned out to be a darling house dog.

Outside she reverts to genetics and is instantly on the hunt for anything that is small and moves. The photo below shows a good likeness.

It’s in a Feists DNA to chase and kill anything that moves. That’s why mine have a fenced yard that is 5’ high. They are house dogs but the fence is attached to the end of the house. I had to chop the English Ivy off of one of the big trees in their yard because Abby kept climbing it to get to the squirrels.

Thanks for adopting your girl. Her chances weren’t good for adoption due to her being feral. They do make darling house dogs and the best vermin killers that ever lived. Like Jack Russell’s, they aren’t for everybody due to their activity level so they sometimes end up in shelters or dumped. I won’t have anything else though. They are extremely loving and loyal.
