Pronunciation |
Rhodesian

Description |
The
Rhodesian Ridgeback is a large, handsome, muscular hound. Its name
describes its most unique characteristic, a clearly defined symmetrical
ridge running the length of its back, formed by hair that grows in the
opposite direction from the rest of its coat. The short, sleek coat comes
in light to dark wheaten, sometimes with small white markings on the chest
and feet. The head is long, the skull is flat and broad with extremely
powerful muzzle and jaw. Ridgebacks have well developed teeth, and a
marked stop. The bright, sparkling eyes are round with an intelligent
_expression_. The nose color should be either black or brown, depending
on the color of the coat. The front legs should be very straight and
strong, with heavy bone. The strong tapered tail is fairly long and curves
slightly upward. |
|
Temperament |
A fine
hunter, the Rhodesian Ridgeback is ferocious in the hunt, but in the home
it is a calm, gentle, obedient, good dog. Good-natured, but some do
not do well with children because they do not want to be pestered or
played with roughly. They are intelligent, cunning but straight-forward
dogs that are loyal to the family, have something of a mind of their own,
are brave, vigilant, reserved toward strangers, and possess considerable
stamina. This breed needs thorough obedience training, socialization with
people and other dogs, and firm owner leadership to become the excellent
companion he can be. Ridgebacks react best to an extremely consistent and
equable approach to training. They are intelligent and learn quickly, but
they are also strong and a bit stubborn. Training should be gentle and
start young while the dog is still small enough to manage. They are
also very good watch dogs, but not suggested for guard dogs. They are very
protective of owners! This has to be addressed during their early
training. This breed can be more destructive than a Lab if left
unsupervised! Do not overfeed this breed. Males may be combative with
other dogs. Provided this dog meets cats and other pets when it is young,
any potential problem will be prevented. Ridgebacks make excellent jogging
companions. |

Origin |
The
Rhodesian Ridgeback resulted from crosses between ridgebacked dogs
originally kept by native tribes in South Africa and other breeds, such as
the Khoikhoi
dog, Mastiff, Deerhound and some breeds
that are not known. It was the native Khoikhoi dog that gave the Ridgeback his distinctive
reverse-hair coat marking, a dominant characteristic that today makes him
unique among dog breeds. The ridgebacks were imported by Boer settlers in
the 16th and 17th centuries. Its standard, fixed in Rhodesia, dates from
1922. The Rhodesian Ridgeback was used for many purposes. This impressive,
protective hound could hunt game, retrieve, take care of children, and
guard property. South African hunters discovered that the Ridgeback, used
in packs, was very effective against lions, hence the breed's other name,
the African Lion Hound. The Rhodesian Ridgeback is well adapted to the
harsh African environment. He can withstand very high temperatures and the
damp cold of night. It is insensitive to insect bites and can go without
food and water for over 24 hours. The breed was recognized by the AKC in
1959. Its country of origin is Zimbabwe. |
