The ultimate vision in our breeding program is to breed healthy Ridgebacks of excellent type and quality. The genetic pool of the Rhodesian Ridgeback breed is very limited and needs to be addressed at every breeding. Our genetic program strive to reduce the ocurrence of the dermoid sinus and ridgeless ridgebacks. One other goal of our breeding program is to maintain a high quality health status of our dogs hips and elbows and screen for thyroid disease of all breed stock. In doing so we also health screen all littermates of puppies for congenital diseases or conditions. We strive to maintain the "Breed Type" conformation of our RRs. We are using the AKC, International FCI and the original "Standard of the Breed" from South Africa as a blue print for our dogs. In addition to natural breedings we utilize modern DNA testing of sire and Dams and up to date reproductive techniques e.g. artificial insemination as selective tools in our breeding program. This allows us to find the very best combinations for our dogs. We select from world wide breeding material and manage a frozen semen program. All our imported stud dogs have passed health sceening as well as passing scores at Temperament Tests given by foreign kennel clubs.
