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.
