16+ Pros and Cons of Owning Rhodesian Ridgebacks

The Rhodesian Ridgeback is a versatile dog with a rich history. Having lived on the territory of the southern continent for more than one century, she perfectly took root in many European countries.

Each breed has its own strengths and weaknesses, on the basis of which each owner selects the ideal pet for himself.

The Rhodesian Ridgeback is no exception, so if you are thinking about purchasing such a dog for yourself, then first read the information below.

#1 This is an intelligent dog, very brave, hardy, but at the same time quiet and independent. Sometimes it may even seem that she is lazy and clumsy, but during walks or bypassing her territory, as well as in case of danger, she turns into a real hunter.

#2 In this breed, such qualities as guarding and hunting are harmoniously combined. Despite the fact that ridgebacks weigh an average of 35 kg, there have been cases when a dog entered into a fight with a lion.

#3 A dog of this breed has fighting qualities, but getting into a family he gets along well with everyone. You can even leave a middle-aged child with him for a while, and the pet will patiently endure all his whims.
