George looks awesome.... He'll fill his own shoes, looks like they'll be big ones!!
Well, he will if your wife doesn't eat him first....
We have a chance to adopt a 6 month old Golden Retriever... hmm, maybe we should, you've given me something to think about...

Oh Shaun <sigh>
He is going to be a beautiful Ridgeback, just look at that face.
Looks like pretty good size 'growth knobs' on his front legs so should be fairlly good size, and that Ridge, a really nice one to be sure!!!!!
I am sure George will make his own footprints! He is going to be a very Handsome Fellow.
I hope you are going to 'crate train' him, it is such a wonderful 'tool' (for puppy and human) and will give him his own 'cave.' lol
Perfect timing, I was just thinking it was about time for you to get him and was going to start a post asking about him, lmao You beat me to it.
Now, of course, you will have to keep us updated, with lots of pics.
Love and hugs,

Just a side note to some who may not know, as cute as he is now, he will grow up to be a BIG boy.
As Shaun's precious Jake was also a Ridgeback he knows, as cute as they are they become a very POWERFUL animal without the proper training, can become a real problem for an owner and others. They are commonly called Lion Dogs and were and are used in Africa for hunting Lions.
Don't let the 'cuteness' fool you, he already has mischief in his eyes, roflmao and Shaun and his wife will have their hands full for quite some time training him, I do not envy them at all. The Ridgeback is a 'thinking' breed and if you do not give them enough to do both physically and mentally they will 'think' of things to do and they may be things their human will not be happy with, lol Oh and when they do get into some mischief, like the Belgians, even if the mischief is cute and funny, one cannot laugh, as laughing is like permission for them to continue the behavior. rofl
Shaun I hope, no I know you and your wife will have lots and lots of fun with this guy!!!!!!
