Mitch is a wonderful, wonderful boy who has captured our hearts and souls. We couldn't imagine life without him. He and our son, Michael, have deeply bonded; they run around the house madly chasing each other, finally falling into a pile of dog and boy, out of breath and in love with each other.

He's gentle and playful and funny and 100% Wire. His first time on "the table" (grooming) was remarkable. He let me strip him, endured all the shaping and styling, the clippers noise, the groomers fatigue.

Our Vets believe him to be between 2 ½ and 3 years old and I concur. He still exhibits puppy behaviours at times. He tolerates PIP THE ALPHA FEMALE and all her imperious bossiness, teasing her mercilessly right back! And the almost-13-year-old-almost-blind Queen Bee has morphed back into a young girl to keep up with him.

My special thanks goes to Ruth ( American Fox Terrier Rescue Maryland volunteer) for fostering Mitch until I could get it together on my end to bring him home.

Thank you, thank you, and thank you for the work you do.
