Rhodesian Ridgebacks in African Plain Environments
A Rhodesian Ridgeback stands on sprawling grassland near a wide acacia tree surrounded by scattered rocks. On the ground nearby sit a dog bowl and a play ball. This sunlit outdoor scene evokes the native Southern African landscape where these athletic hound dogs historically roamed and worked alongside big game hunters.
Remarkable Facts About Rhodesian Ridgebacks
The defining feature of the Rhodesian Ridgeback is a stripe of hair along its spine that grows in the opposite direction from the rest of the coat. Bred by European settlers and indigenous Khoikhoi people, these dogs were famous for tracking lions and keeping them at bay until hunters arrived. Their short, dense coat is specially adapted to withstand high temperatures and rough brush.
