1950s Feist

Sunday we had a visit from a fellow squirrel hunter from
Benton, AR. His Granddaughter's family is getting a pup from
Lia and Max. It was pleasant to visit with an old time hunter.
He sent these pictures of his Feist growing up and I am so
proud to share them on our Blog.
Here is his message and the photos--

Hi Larry -
Here's some pix of the white feist we had when I wuz a kid - He was what
my Dad called a 'bench legged' feist & was the best squirrel dog I ever
followed. He was self-taught, silent on trail, & absolutely did not bark
unless he was looking at the squirrel. Whitey was about 12-13 inches
high & weighed maybe 20lbs. Pix are scans from some old B&W photos I
have so aren't the best - Hope you enjoy 'em, feel free to use/post 'em
on your web site if you want.

Two of my younger brothers (on right) with 2 cousins & Whitey - probably
late spring 1957?
This is Whitey & my 3rd brother Darryl. Darryl was born in Feb 1953 &
looks to be about 2-3yrs old in the pic so I'm gonna say its probably
winter 1955/56(??). The house faced north & the fireplace was on the
east side & with the shadows pointing north it was likely mid morning.

Whitey in front yard of our old log house, probably 1957 as I can see my
baby sister sitting on the wagon behind the Hydrangia bush & she was
born Sept 1956.
