We were incredibly fortunate to find Cherie Starr and Ross Jones (Cimarron Rhodesian Ridgebacks) through the Rhodesian Ridgeback Club of the United States (RRCUS) website--turned out they lived only 15 minutes from us, so we went to meet them and their family of five Ridgebacks. That visit confirmed that Ridgies were the breed for us!
Mentorship from Cherie and Ross has been invaluable as we've become immersed in the wonderful world of Ridgebacks! We are also incredibly grateful that Cherie and Ross introduced us to Susan Ralston, VMD (Ridge View Rhodesian Ridgebacks) and Linda Siplon (Lija Rhodesian Ridgebacks). Our extended Ridgeback family and knowledge has continued to grow through knowing them!
We adopted our first Ridgeback and foundation bitch, Kimaya, in January of 2008. Because you definitely can't have just one, we adopted Chisulo in August of 2008. Our Ridgies are first and foremost our beloved companions. As you'll see, we also train and participate with them in conformation, lure coursing, herding, rally, and agility. These dedicated, versatile hounds are the only breed for us!
