God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.                Genesis 1:25

We are a small hobby kennel located in the beautiful Texas Hill Country overlooking Canyon Lake. The ridgebacks have plenty of room to run on over an acre, and keep fit chasing each other and keeping away the deer.

South Africa is the land of my birth, and as such, we love the rich history of South Africa and of the Rhodesian Ridgeback. Our every effort will be made to preserve this history and  the South African standard and type of the ridgeback.

Our history with ridgebacks began in the 1970's when our family got it's first ridgeback. Themba, a red wheaten female, went everywhere with me, my faithful companion and protector. A few years later came Tondo, a huge light wheaten male, who once ate the Thanksgiving ham right off the dining room table. Sheba, a red wheaten female was the third Ridgeback addition to the Harris household. Sheba owned the youngest Harris girl, and snored Mrs. Harris to sleep at night. Many years later, when Alan, Lynette and family were again able to get a ridgeback...well, as the saying goes, you can't have just one!

We believe the ridgeback is best suited to being a loyal and cherished family member. They are also well-rounded and excel in numerous field and sporting events. Our dogs are lovingly trained, screened in health checks, and proved in the show ring.
