![]() Started Dogs have been exposed to riding in a vehicle, gunfire & squirrels. These dogs are older puppies or young dogs (up to 16 months or so) that have been socialized & begun obedience training. Every year, we hunt in multiple states which gives us plenty of opportunities to keep our dogs in shape & at the top of their game! The result of hunting hard & being students of genetics means our dogs have gotten more consistent over time. The resulting off-spring are bred back to the Gray line to keep the family of dogs going. Periodically we make outcrosses to other lines of feist to enhance a trait we like & increase genetic diversity. ![]() We use recognized linebreeding practices to concentrate genes we want while simultaneously identifying and eliminating undesirable traits. There are dogs being hunted now that represent the 7th & 8th generation since our hunting program started. Marc & Jess know what a good squirrel dog is and objectively evaluate stock on multiple factors necessary to ensure success in the field. ![]() Our high, self-imposed, standards and sound breeding/training practices are what sets us apart from other programs out there today. We truly cherish our dogs & know you'll be happy with them too! We've been improving this line of dogs since 2005 & our breeding practices have resulted in solid hunting dogs with strong conformation & a balanced temperament. At Gray's Mountain Feist we take the utmost pride in offering well-bred & healthy dogs to you so can build your own family tradition on a strong foundation. ![]()
