Now that's a fine specimen of the Rhodesian Ridgeback. They were originally bred for hunting, I think. Gotta love the short coat with little to no shedding, and grooming costs approaching zero.

Thank you. She is a wonderful girl.... smart, sweet, and loving.

Ridgebacks were originally bred in Africa to hunt lions and protect property. They shed very little and they are generally very clean animals, no rolling in the mud or anything like that.

The worst thing about them is that they are very food motivated and they will swipe stuff off the counter if you aren't paying attention.
