BRED TO BE YOUR BEST FRIEND!

 When we do breed, our puppies are bred to be first and foremost your trusted companion but are equally at home in the show ring, field or pursuing the many other dog sports. They are raised in the fresh air of the country on 5 acres in the Sunshine Coast hinterland, 45 mins from Noosa  & a pleasant 2 hours drive from Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.

All Rhodesian Ridgebacks used in our breeding program are hip/elbow x-rayed and are within the breed average.
