Before you buy a Rhodesian Ridgeback
If you are considering to buy your first Rhodesian Ridgeback please read on.
 


So you are confident that you have the life-style that will suit a dog. You have read the Things to know before you buy a Rhodesian Ridgeback and the FAQ section. You are sure that a Rhodesian Ridgeback is the best breed for you, and now you are looking for a best place to buy a puppy. The litters of puppies listed on this page are approved by Belgian Rhodesian Ridgeback Club which means that the breeders agreed to adhere to the BRRC Code of Conduct. However, the BRRC will not be responsible for the quality of the puppies.

Out of many characteristics that you may be looking for in your new puppy (type, colour, male or female, etc.), the temperament of your puppy will have the most effect on your family's every day life.

Choose carefully!

When looking for a dog you should visit as many kennels and see as many pups as possible. Don’t go to see the pups directly. A sweet cuddly little pup may impair your other wise good judgment. You should instead be looking at the adult dogs - the pup will not stay a pup and what you see in the adults is what the pups are likely to turn out like. The adult dogs should appear happy, healthy and clean. Any dog showing signs of aggression for no reason (and visiting the pups is not a good reason) is not going to make a good companion. A fearful (shy) dog could become a potential a fear baiter. A dog with proper, stable temperament should be approachable without showing fear or aggression.

Please visit the mother (at least) of your puppy before and after the puppies are born and ask the breeder for contact details of other people to whom she/he have previously sold puppies to. Ask and get a contact number for the father of the pups. Don’t get put off by many questions the breeder may ask you and ask as many questions as you need yourself. It is in the good breeders best interest to make a perfect match between you and your puppy and as a result ensure a good, permanent home for their pups.

IMPORTANT!
DO NOT BUY A PUPPY FROM A BREEDER WHO DOESN'T PROVIDE YOU WITH
OFFICIAL THE COPY OF HIP DYSPLASIA (HD) CERTIFICATE FROM BOTH, MOTHER AND FATHER. THE CERTIFICATES SHOULD SHOW EITHER 'A' OR 'B' RESULT.

All combinations of 'A' + 'A', 'B' + 'A' are good but avoid 'B' + 'B'. If in doubt, please send us an email, we will be happy to help!

Every Breeder on the BRRC (Belgian Rhodesian Ridgeback Club) list of approved Breeders will test their dogs for HD and have documents to prove it. Save yourself a LOT of money and a LOT of heartache when looking after a suffering dog. Buy a puppy from the approved BRRC Breeder.
