No, it doesn't.  And it looks like she comes from a line of champions by the looks of her dogster page.  Maybe they're retiring her from the show circuit.  But why get rid of her just because she can't show?  I've heard of people doing that, but I could never.  I've always loved this breed.  Maybe someday.  :)


it might be a come on,,,,, to sell puppies, ive seen that before too dog 4 adoption, but was adopted, but we do have pup for sale!
it looks like a winning liver nose, who knows how old she is, or, even if she is still alive. we keep our ridgebacks untill they pass on, show or not breedable any more.

it's a sad world out there.
i know we take our dogs back, if they cannot keep tham any more and re home them. we have many friends in the RR world, that have contacts for unwanted ridgebacks, always a home for one of ours, somewhere!!

I didn't even think of the puppy aspect.  I just saw up for adoption and was sad that she is obviously from a good line and is absolutely adorable. 

I've seen your name in quite a few places outside of BPO for RR breeders.  And the fact that you care what happens to your dogs from birth on shows me how much you care about your dogs.  Someday when my husband gets out of the military and we buy a house finally, (only 8 more years hopefully) then I might have to look you up.  I hope you'll still either be breeding or still have those contacts for rehoming, because I'm really interested in this breed. Can you tell me more about them.  Stuff that's not listed in the akc breed summary.  Thanks :)


hopefully this might help, also you can e mail me, or i m me
at the addys on the web

I may be prejudiced but I think my Desia is the most beautiful, sweetest and largest female Ridgeback there is...http://www.kweisskopf.com/Albums/DesiaPage8.html.
She has her own web site and she tops out at 120 lbs.

she is so pretty, but a female that size, is much too big for the standard

even large for a male, usually 110 of muscle,, bitches about 75 to 90 which is big, how tall is she at the shoulders??
  if she is very tall, i understand the lbs
hope she will always be your best friend forever

welcome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

55
this almost made me cry,
we put 110% into our dogs and pups, but when you get a report like this, it makes it all worth while!!!!!!!


Billie,
 
Wanted to let you know....We took Bairu to the vet today and he is in PERFECT health, weighing in at 15 1/2 lbs.  The vet said that he was in better shape than 99% of the puppies that she has seen come in for a first visit.  We really appreciate everything you and Michael have done.
 
Thanks again,
 
Bill, Robyn, and Bairu

 ;D
well, all nandi's babies went to thier new home this weekend, all are doing great, most weighing in at 15 lbs or more at 8 weeks. hopefully the show prospects all do well in the ring. 
yes, i kept a female, whats 1 more dog ;D

this is a condition called Valgus deformity,  it is caused by stress, poor feeding, and too much play on a young pup. luckily, the cure is, lots of good food and crate rest for about 3 weeks, no heavy exersise.  we must remember, large dogs have major growth spurts, and need to be careful when they are just babies.
please let any new puppy people know about this. we all know how excited people are about a new pup, and do not realise how much rest a 8 week old needs and lots of good nutrition.. before and after photos in just 3 weeks

Medical Conditions & Diseases / Re: Need cheaper wormer??? :o)

I talked this over with my vet and they okayed it.  I am NOT a vet, just passing along info for you to check out yourselves and perhaps save a LOT of money!  :o   

We've lived on 2 different farms the past 8yrs, so we do preventative worming.  Dogs like to eat lots of droppings, mice, moles or whatever they might catch.  I was estatic when I found out about this! LOL 

http://beaglesunlimited.com/beaglehealth_canineintestinalworms.htm

Make sure to read the entire thing and save it.  Also, Safeguard just put out a doggie version that costs just about as much as the vets'.  Don't fall for it!  lol  It's still the same thing just a different form of the cattle, horse or goat formulas.  Just make sure it says 10% on it.

As a side note, the site mentions ivermectin for heartworm prevention.  Please, please, please if you use this remember it can be DEADLY to collies, shelties, aussies and other collie type breeds!!!!!  A high majority of them have a mutation at the MDR1 gene that allows certain medications to pass through the protective membrane of the brain.  Some other meds that can effect them are immodium, digoxin, ondansetron, many chemotherapeut ic drugs including vincristine, vinblastine, and doxorubicin.  Go here for a better article and means of ordering a test to find out if your collie breed is at risk:

http://www.vetmed.wsu.edu/announcements/ivermectin/

omg   nooooooooooooo
please  use ONLY 1% ivomec oraly  1 cc per 110 lbs, not 10 %
it is way too strong for dogs, since it is a cattle wormer.
i have always used ivomec, for all worms and to prevent heart worm, monthly,,,, dogs over 3 months and weigh your dog, so the corect dose is right, just please rember  1 cc ORALY, per 110 lbs :o

well, all our little babies are gone :-[
hav'nt d/l the rest of the photos yet, but will soon
