The Rat Terrier is an intelligent, alert and loving dog. It is very inquisitive and lively. This affectionate dog makes an excellent companion for those who will enjoy an energetic dog. They are good with children, especially if they are raised with them from puppyhood.
Feist dogs, as a breed, are what we now call the Rat Terrier. The Rat Terrier is considered the progenitor of, and a specific breed within, the Feist umbrella. Because the word Feist refers to a general type of dog just as hound and terrier refer to a group of breeds, Rat Terriers are still often called feists.
