\"\"<\/a>So the dog for us found us, so often how things in life work. All my worrying and searching wasn’t seriously needed. His owner was retiring him from dog shows and he needed a families attention. Well we are a big family and ready to shower attention, also home often so he doesn’t have to be lonely with us.\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>Riddick is a four year old smooth fox terrier and a real little gentleman. He is gentle and patient and willing to learn our new house with new rules. He hasn’t made a noise yet, I will be surprised when we finally hear what his bark is like. Turns out my dad had a fox terrier as a boy so he gave us a glowing review about the breed.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>(Baby Boy can’t pronounce Riddick so he calls our dog ‘RICK’!)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

We have already been on a few walks with him and he is a lot of fun to play with at the park. Obviously all the kids are very excited! Garnet and I have waited a long time to find the right dog and timing for a pet in our home and we are both very excited too.\"\"<\/a>I am really optimistic! Feel like this is a real blessing for the family. We knew adopting was the way to go but never ever thought we would be able to adopt a purebred. I don’t think I have ever ever owned anything but a mutt before. Oh I still love a lovable mutt but I also have to change my stance on the idea of purebreds and male dogs now that that is what I have! Never had a male before either! Then the fact that he is so mild and well trained is a super big deal for this mama. Makes my job of integrating him into the family a whole lot easier. I am so glad we didn’t opt for a puppy. This over sized honey of a lap dog is more my style:)<\/p>\n
