MY FAVORITE WEB SITES

Many hours spent searching the Internet for canine health information, dog gear, agility equipment, show results and Ridgeback pedigrees have allowed me to gather hundreds of links to the best sites. A few of these sites are absolutely critical to learning about Ridgebacks including the OFA and RRCUS Health. Many are just links to other Ridgeback breeders or friends of mine from all over the world.

Intrigue Rhodesian Ridgebacks - Burlington, NC - Outstanding Ridgebacks including Apollo & Calypso

Jendaya Rhodesian Ridgebacks & Pet Portraits - East Bridgewater, MA - Katie's breeder

OFA - Search for verification of health tests on Ridgebacks and other breeds

Once Frozen - Canine Reproductive Services and semen storage - OKC, OK

Rainbow Show Dogs - If you need a good handler for your show dog, contact Kari Smith. Kari has helped put AKC conformation championships on several of the Cynara Ridgebacks. The dogs are treated like family.

Rhodesian Ridgeback Club of the US - Members of RRCUS abide by a code of ethics for the breeding and treatment of their Ridgebacks.

RESCUE & NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS
(These groups need your donations and help)

Assistance Dog Institute - Breeds and trains dogs to help people with disabilities. They also offer educational degree programs in assistance dog education and human-canine life sciences.

Etosha Rigeback Rescue - Etosha is located in Seguin, Texas. They take in Ridgebacks from owners who can no longer care for them and from shelters to prevent the dog from being killed. Please help support them by adopting one of their Rescues or by donating money for food and vet bills.

Leader Dogs for the Blind - Breeds, trains and donates assistance dogs to blind people.

National Disaster Search Dog Foundation (SDF) - Founded in 1996 and based in Ojai, CA. Their mission is to strengthen disaster response in America by producing highly-skilled canine/firefighter disaster search teams to find victims of natural disasters and terrorist attacks. It is the only organization in the US that recruits rescued dogs, gives them ongoing professional training, and partners them with firefighters and other first responders at no cost to their departments. The traits that often land overactive dogs in shelters -- extreme drive and relentless energy -- are exactly the characteristics needed in a search dog.
