I grew up with a variety of Dachshunds and rescued an Irish Setter in 1975 which I had for a further 10 years. I purchased my first Rhodesian Ridgeback in 1985 and bred my first litter in 1991. Since then I have bred 34 champions and owned and titled 9 other ridgebacks including Australia’s first Swedish import in 1997. A delightful Beagle also joined our family for many years. Home of Grand Champions and Best in Show winners. Many HuntingRidge progeny have excelled not only in the confirmation ring but at various canine activities including lure coursing, racing, tracking, obedience, Delta Therapy and assistance programs and have contributed to the breed here and overseas.
