Description
Dog Breed: Rhodesian Ridgeback / Pit Bull Terrier (short coat). A5758970 Say hello to Maya, a 1-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback/Pitbull mix who is one sweet, chonky little love muffin! Her silky nutmeg brown coat, adorable spotted sock feet, and smoky eyeliner and muzzle make her absolutely irresistible. Still just a baby, Maya would benefit from learning the puppy basics like leash work, potty training, and commands, along with continued socialization. She came to us from Carson, where she was such a volunteer favorite that some of her fans even came to visit her here! Maya can be a bit shy at first, but give her a little time and patience and she blossoms into the most loving companion. Once she trusts you, she’ll give you her whole heart and be your most loyal, devoted girl! -1 year old brown Rhodesian Ridgeback/Pitbull mix -64 pound spayed female -may need the standard round of shots and preventatives before she can go home with you, but the shelter can likely help with this! -came to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center on 3/19/26 as a transfer from the Carson Animal Care Center -such a gem - and a volunteer favorite - that will make any family unbelievably happy! -due to her young age, may need some work with the puppy basics, but she’s worth the investment -understandably a bit scared at the new shelter, but warms up quickly and wants nothing more than to love and be loved MAYA’S VIDEO: youtube/shorts/bG For more information, contact volunteer Lor at lorunitedhopeforanimals Look up this or other animals at Baldwin Park Animal Care Center animalcare.lacounty.gov/view-our-animals/ Use their unique ID NUMBER.

Overview:
The Rhodesian Ridgeback is a distinctive and noble breed, originally from Southern Africa, where they were developed to track and corner large game, including lions. Their most striking feature is the "ridge" of hair running down their spine in the opposite direction to the rest of their coat. Physically, they are strong, muscular dogs with a short, dense coat typically in shades of light wheaten to red wheaten. Temperamentally, Ridgebacks are known for being dignified, intelligent, and fiercely loyal to their families. While generally good with children they are raised with, their size and strength mean supervision is always recommended. They are not typically suited for apartment living due to their need for regular exercise and a secure yard. Health-wise, the breed is generally robust, but potential concerns include hip and elbow dysplasia, as well as dermoid sinus, a congenital skin condition. With proper training and socialization, the Rhodesian Ridgeback makes a wonderful, protective companion for active families.
