Your RR is the size of a horse!!! I just got my first Ridgeback puppy a couple days ago. He's the best! He sleeps on my shoulders when I drove home. I love RR's.
I have a 5 month male ridgeback and was worried that I was doing something wrong- your video shows me my puppy is entirely typical and I should enjoy his youth while I can. Thankyou.
I've had my Ridgeback for almost 10 years now. He's slowed down a lot. I'll miss him a lot when he goes to Ridgeback heaven. Tyson won't be my last Ridgeback. They are a great breed.
+Rae Rael Thanks, he's a handsome boy in my opinion. LOL. My wife picked him out in 2006 and Tyson was her boy. Cancer got my wife in 2013 and he was pretty sad. He loves our daily 3 mile walks and I take him just about everywhere. He's a good boy.
+raykrv6a I appreciate your reply. Your wife had a wonderful intuition by picking Tyson! This may sound crazy but I observed that some dogs are real dogs and other dogs are human-dogs. Tyson's face expression tells me he is a human-dog. 3 mile walks that would be almost 5km (in metric), that's so great! My sister has a ridgeback and I have a beagle and we are also making around 4 miles a day. Aren't dogs our best fitness coaches? I can imagine how sad was Tyson after your wife crossed over. But dogs know that it is only our physical body which isn't here, your wife is with you and Tyson in spirit all the time and certainly whenever you wish her to be there with you.
+Rae Rael ラエ・ラエル Tyson passed away Feb 13th, 2016. He had tumors in his spleen and it spread before we found it. It was very hard at first, but took some time and spoke with a breeder for an hour today and going to get one of the pups in her next litter coming up shortly. The breeder works in a clinic and said cancer seems to be affecting many more dogs today, then 15-20 years ago. She believes it's what is put in the dog food. I'm going to follow her recommendations for this pups food and care.
+raykrv6a I am very sorry to hear about Tyson's passing. He will stay in your hearts forever and they say that when it's time for humans to cross over, our dear pets will be there welcoming us. It's comforting thought so I believe in it. Yes, I utterly agree that dogs are getting cancers from the food and the environment as well. I would only recommend organic raw meat (or fish) with veggies and potatoes, you can research on it but when buying processed food you are taking the risks for not knowing what is in it. What did the breeder recommend? I am sending Tyson small virtual bone to chew on in his Ridgeback heaven.
That is exactly what life is like with the RR. run,rest,eat....repeat Training takes patience and repetition. Reward, do not scold, ever. I have a pack of 5, it's either energetic beautiful chaos or a sweet scene of slumber. Love this breed.
My Sadie, a ridgeback (without a ridge) is about to turn 12. At that advanced age, she's still headstrong and full of attitude. Life has been a joy with her.
I have one nice Rhodesian since she is 2 months. Single, i live in a camping car with my LHermione, good guard to travel, and nice moments with her. Your video is beautiful
❤️❤️❤️ Just lost my beautiful boy . He was my second Ridgeback. The best dogs ever if you have control! This made me smile again as your dog reminded me so much of my boy.
This reminds me so much of my first RR, Rufus. He was my constant companion, was there for my first date with my wife, moved with us to Europe and back to the US, and was present at the births of both my children. I miss him every day...
i have a ridgeback he is so sweet they are they best dogs ever. I had to get a new one named archer because my last one died a year or so ago, he was my boy i love him so much. They are wonderful animals. They are great friends. when i was down they would cheer me up. I love all of my dogs but i have had a great relationship with them. They take up a lot of room in the bed which i think is funny! He is scared of pillows and a lot of other stuff. Well they are great animals!
My Rhodesian, Roxy, behaves the same way. Sleeping or 100mph figure eights. Notorious in the kitchen, she once pulled a large birthday cake from the counter and ate the entire thing in about 1-2 minutes. Very protective of all children and very suspicious of strangers. She has killed a few wild varmints that have strayed into the back yard and her bark is loud, which scares some people. She will not bite adults but she will circle, bark and charge a stranger that comes within 100 feet of the house.
Hi, I'm from Perú...2 months ago, I found a dog like yours, she had a broken and infected leg and warts. I paid her treatment and sterilization and now she is healthy and I'm looking for a good family for her....I hope to get lucky in the search, she deserves it
love this, really shows how ridgebacks are. as far as being aggressive with other dogs and being able to live with cats (some questions down below). rhodesian ridgebacks are very much family dogs, and tends to bond with his/her family, and can be a little wary of strangers, especially in thier home. this doesn't mean they are aggressive, just that they aren't going to run up and love all over a new person. Bitches can get along with other dogs fairly well, but usually takes some time warming up to them, like people. so new/strange dogs running up and getting in thier face isn't great. dogs (males) are known to be a bit on the dog aggressive side, especially intact males with other males (intact or neutered). this just means don't take him to an off leash dog free for all. then you are going to get a fight. take them to a park where they can run without being mobbed by other dogs. if a fight ever happens DON'T get in the middle of it. instead grab both dogs back legs and "wheelbarrow"them, dogs have a hard time getting at each other at that angle, and they can't get the person either. also (a little weird, but effective) put a finger in thier butt. gross, but effective, it sometimes shocks them into stopping, or letting go. fights can even happen between two brothers or boys that live together since puppy hood so be careful. this doesn't mean you shouldn't get one, and doesn't apply to every dog. we have two bitches currently, one fits this to a tee, the other is the most loving, in your face, look at all the new friends, dog ever. also, both our girls lived with a cat for a while, and as far as that goes, it's really a dog to dog basis I'm afraid. depends on the cat and the dog. they love laying around, and they also love, and need to, run. if you live in a apartment or other limited room place, be prepared to take them some place to run. also, hide your food, hide your trash. ridgebacks are notorious food hounds. they will eat unguarded food. they also do better with positive reinforced training. contact a local rescue or experienced breeder/ owner to learn more as they are, in my opinion, the greatest dogs in the world!
I have a Rhodesian Plott Hound cross. Her name is Nala and she is just 14 months and 70 pounds. She does all of that...no wonder...she is a nut...hard headed, and sweet. Love when she hunts in the tall grass and bounds like a cat to see of the tops.
Had mine back, Very playful since I had a really big yard, I named hime chase, he loved to be chased around a lot, sad he went missing :{ best breed for people who love running or active a lot!
Nice video. I'm on my second ridgey now, Rufus (Rufaro), and I know so many other people who have them. I think almost all owners would identify with the behavior shown in your video. I'm sure most Ridgebacks think they're human :)
Haha..... how cute. Mine is a cross with American Staffy and is just adorable. (and a food thief!!!). Had friends over and someone left the sliding door unlocked.... anyway we went back for seconds and..... well you can guess. Showed him the empty boxes and guess what.... he hid in shame!!! hahaha
Pri tomto videu mi tiekli slzy po tvári a zároveň som sa usmievala. Veľmi mi to pripomenulo našu Karku, ktorá nás v pondelok opustila vo veku 11 rokov. Zbožňujem rhodeských ridgebackov.
Hallo, super Video! Man sieht ihr versteht euch blendend. Wir hatten auch so einen:) Es ist ok so wie er ist, solange ich es auch ok finde. Punkt. Wenn es darauf ankommt hört er und benimmt oder beschützt dich. Und solange es nicht ernst ist, genießen alle das Leben.
I love and want a ridgeback for my family. I have a young family and people make it seem like they need 3 hour run per day.....then I see comments like this! It's tough to know exactly what they need. But I love everything else about them...
the scene were the dog is trying to get onto the armchair with you is just so typical..they think they are tiny dog so they sit on your feet or try to sit in your lap...most fun we had for 16 years,nobby was the best
Esse video definiu eu e minha filha Lana, tambem da raça, nos temos esta mesma convivencia todos os dias, ficamos juntos a maior parte do tempo, sempre com extremo carinho um com outro, passeio com ela no minimo 2 vezes por dia... Laninha te amo demais
Hello I some how found this video. I have one partner that actually match the video. I was amazing with the similarities. I'm training Scooby to be able to go to hospital and make kids smile, some kind of therapy . Plus I'm study to be a certified Dog trainer. I really love my dog and I want to help the other dogs are in the shelter to be adopted . But I just want to say thank you for this video. I was really down and your video makes me feel strong again. Thank you.
+Ricky X I just forgot to add what I do with Scooby. Well It's almost 100% the same of the video. He follow me everywhere I go and he is super smart. He likes to eat what I eat but he goes to diet ,when I go to diet . I normally run 3 miles everyday with him, plus we play in the house and the training he is getting to pass the good citizen test, to be able to bring him with me to places . He loves watch tv and he start learning how to turn the tv off. He turns the tv off at 8:30pm and that means I'ts time to go sleep. If I didn't go at that time with him. he makes sure he gets all the bed and he just looks at me when I'm trying to move it, like saying I told you so!!! lol I can't stop smiling at your video. I thing I saw it like a hundred times. Thank you again.
Hey! I loved the video! Where do you live? I want to adopt one but I do not know where. I need one like yours, the DARK BROWN color, and I want a puppy. Thanks :)!
I always come back to this video when I head back to college and miss my boy back home
Your RR is the size of a horse!!! I just got my first Ridgeback puppy a couple days ago. He's the best! He sleeps on my shoulders when I drove home. I love RR's.
My friend has 3 of these dogs. They're like over grown puppies. Very adorable.
I have a 5 month male ridgeback and was worried that I was doing something wrong- your video shows me my puppy is entirely typical and I should enjoy his youth while I can. Thankyou.
I've had my Ridgeback for almost 10 years now. He's slowed down a lot. I'll miss him a lot when he goes to Ridgeback heaven. Tyson won't be my last Ridgeback. They are a great breed.
+raykrv6a your Ridgeback has beautiful face if assume correctly that it's him as your avatar here. Very handsome boy!
+Rae Rael Thanks, he's a handsome boy in my opinion. LOL. My wife picked him out in 2006 and Tyson was her boy. Cancer got my wife in 2013 and he was pretty sad. He loves our daily 3 mile walks and I take him just about everywhere. He's a good boy.

Don't you just love watching these dogs get into their full stride, my sounds like a horse when he gets going.

Every little action and mannerism of this dog is the same as my ridgeback. If somebody wants to know about RRs then watch this vid - perfect.
Such absolutely amazing dogs. :) I miss mine so much.. They are just so playful, and sleep with you and oh mein.. best friend I ever ever had
Love your video, i have one, my son has 2 and my daughter has one, so my babysitting is a mad mad household, best dogs EVER xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I have a Rhodesian Plott Hound cross. Her name is Nala and she is just 14 months and 70 pounds. She does all of that...no wonder...she is a nut...hard headed, and sweet. Love when she hunts in the tall grass and bounds like a cat to see of the tops.
you got the pure essence of an RR in a video! :)
Great dog, great song great everything!! I thoroughly enjoyed this👍👍❤❤
Mine is ten years old. I'm crying happy tears❤
Had mine back, Very playful since I had a really big yard, I named hime chase, he loved to be chased around a lot, sad he went missing :{ best breed for people who love running or active a lot!
Sorry your Ridgeback ran off. Hopefully you were able to find him! They're the best dog breed ever!
Incredibly cute. what a sweet dog.
Your pups training is awesome, what a cutie!
RR jsou nej.Zatím máme 1,ale co nejdřív jí plánujeme parťáka.Ona je takový naše druhý dítě.Oni jsou prostě nejlepší
This video made me laugh and smile! So fun! Thank you!
Dreaming of a RR myself, hoping to get one in october/november next year :)
This is one of the most beautiful videos
Love this video. Life with a Ridgeback. What can be better!
Beautifully Incredible friendship you two have
I used to have a region ridgeback but then I brought it to my grandpa cuz he was really good with dogs and I really miss him
Loved it! Really typical behaviour of a Rhodesian Ridgeback!!!
Я восхищён! Вот так должны жить люди и собаки, ведь хозяин и питомец это единый организм!
Ненадо очеловечевать животное. Позволять брать со стола, спать вместе и...Это очень плохой пример, который нельзя транслировать
Very cute !! So is the dog!!
Amore...pazienza(da entrambe le parti)..e tutta la naturalezza possibile..brava..
Nice video. I'm on my second ridgey now, Rufus (Rufaro), and I know so many other people who have them. I think almost all owners would identify with the behavior shown in your video. I'm sure most Ridgebacks think they're human :)
Son muy energéticos y leales.
They are very energetic, yet loyal.
Beautiful dogs ❤
Haha..... how cute. Mine is a cross with American Staffy and is just adorable. (and a food thief!!!). Had friends over and someone left the sliding door unlocked.... anyway we went back for seconds and..... well you can guess. Showed him the empty boxes and guess what.... he hid in shame!!! hahaha
Big smile from Berlin !!!!! perfect team

Beautiful video, crazy & lovely dog!!
Your video is fantastic. I could watch it 3 times a day! Now i`ve watched it surely the twenty-third time :)
Great video! So love Ridges!
My dog resembles this breed and he is just as energetic/delightfully rude as this guy, and that's why he's my boi
Haha the bin and kitchen counter is so my rodiestion Ridgeback!
Cheeky Girl Nayla.
You seem to have a great relationship with your dog, I had a blast myself spending 24h/day with my little broholmer pup since I picked him up!
Love Ridgebacks... Awesome breed... I have 2, 5 and 7 years old... If you think one is fun get 2!
My parents have her mum, so when I come there at the weekend, they are playing all the time. So yes, more ridgebacks, more fun :-)
what a great dog !
Great Dog and great bread.
Jste skvěla dvojka! :)
Hallo, super Video! Man sieht ihr versteht euch blendend. Wir hatten auch so einen:) Es ist ok so wie er ist, solange ich es auch ok finde. Punkt. Wenn es darauf ankommt hört er und benimmt oder beschützt dich. Und solange es nicht ernst ist, genießen alle das Leben.

My ridgeback sleeps about 23 hours a day...
Lorraine Durbin i have 5 ridgebacks!

I love and want a ridgeback for my family. I have a young family and people make it seem like they need 3 hour run per day.....then I see comments like this! It's tough to know exactly what they need. But I love everything else about them...
One of the greatest exports FROM SOUTH AFRICA. THE RHODESIAN RIDGEBACK
the scene were the dog is trying to get onto the armchair with you is just so typical..they think they are tiny dog so they sit on your feet or try to sit in your lap...most fun we had for 16 years,nobby was the best
Thank you for the video. Warming.
I think i maybe take own ridgeback. ::) love it!
My 2.5 year old male, Wyatt, is just like Zany...just waiting for him to calm down.
+flyingshamrockranch The terrible 2's strike. My ridge decided to eat the sofa and loveseat for entertainment while we were at work.
I cannot leave mine inside while I am gone....they go out in the yard! You wanted to redecorate anyway, right? LOL
Krása.. :) Mám roční fenku RR, vidím, že ty bestie jsou úplně stejné.. :)
Remember me on our own Rhodesian - really beautiful friendship
that dog gets more action than i do
Love this buddy !!!
Nice. Definitely your best friend. Cute vid.
GREAT VIDEO - MADE MY DAY !
Love how she ends the video with the dog licking its ass, and right after that a kiss.
Esse video definiu eu e minha filha Lana, tambem da raça, nos temos esta mesma convivencia todos os dias, ficamos juntos a maior parte do tempo, sempre com extremo carinho um com outro, passeio com ela no minimo 2 vezes por dia... Laninha te amo demais
Na verdade ela e tudo que eu tenho de mais valor ate o presente momento nao sei o que seria de mim sem sua companhia.
I miss my dogs..
My mom has an 8 year old rodeshion ridgeback named zena
I love this vídeo 💖💖💖💖💖
Beautiful
Me encanto! Saludos a los dos!
Do you have any action outside? these big dogs need to run!
Great movie, after watching - I could have only one conclusion - my wovie would be very similar ;)
I started the video then started singing along to riptide. Probably the only one, I’m weird lol.
Great breed of dog. Mine is still a puppy but she is learning fast!
What is the song title played in movie? I really like song.
The song is from Vance Joy - Riptide
