I have been planning to get a Mountain Feist after I lose my two oldest dogs to old age, who will both be 14 in June, including this pup's half uncle. The pup is out a litter of Kangal/Anatolian crosses I had. I think he looks great. He has a great personality too. He has not showed fear of anything. He's dominant, but not aggressive. He has a beautiful gait. I am very tempted to keep him. I want to see how he comes out. Keith

It's an exciting time, because it's when you can first start seeing their full potential. At those ages they make look great 1 day and terrible the next and then suddenly it just clicks in and they are doing what they were bred for. Before I got crippled up, I loved starting beagles and shorthairs. Keith
