I have been involved with Ridgebacks since I fell in love with the breed in 1998 in the UK. I bought three generations over to NZ in 2007. I breed the occasional litter and breed for temperament and type. I was extremely fortunate to use the first NZ Ridgeback Grand Champion Boulderbrae Chobe to sire our last litter. The three dogs in the show ring have all been made up to NZ Champions.
