Sweet, playful, and full of puppy charm, she brings joy to every room she enters.

Lucille is confident and friendly with everyone she meets—humans and animals alike. She does great with other dogs, is respectful around cats, and gentle with kids. She’s the kind of puppy who wants to be part of everything and gives love freely to everyone around her. Lucille is eager to learn, bonds quickly, and is already showing how smart and social she is. Breed Information The American Foxhound is known for being gentle, loyal, and good-natured. These dogs are active and have a strong sense of smell, originally bred for hunting and tracking. The Feist Terrier adds intelligence, playfulness, and a high-spirited attitude. As a mix of these two breeds, Lucille is likely to be energetic, curious, and affectionate with a love for companionship and exploration. Her smaller size makes her manageable, while her personality makes her shine. ‍&#226&#153&#128&#239&#184&#143 Owner Responsibilities Provide regular playtime, short walks, and safe socialization Begin positive reinforcement training early—puppies learn fast!
