We’re getting a liver Rhodesian Ridgeback. We visited the breeder two weeks ago to see the litter. 16 puppies! They were adorable.
I’ve never had one...Betcha they’re adorable.
OK. O/T. I’m sitting here, in a quiet room, and he who is named Brad appears in the hall behind me, and growls at the dogs. They ignored him.
He who is named Brad will now get bonked up the side o’the head as I almost became airborne...
Male or female?
Keep in mind that RRs are -hunting- sight hounds with a very high prey drive and -will- chase and kill anything that runs from them.
The males are also very dog aggressive and dominant.
You will need to be firm from the get-go.
