ID266 |
 |
Sunshine was picked up from an animal shelter in West Virgina after her owner dropped her off. At the age of two, she'd already given birth to three sets up pups and was in poor emotional and physical shape. After about five weeks in foster care, she found her forever home with a family that had recently lost their male RR to a stroke. In her new home she'll be the only dog and will get all the one-on-one attention that she deserves and has never gotten. Sunshine is a very special dog and her new family is lucky to have such a wonderful dog like her.

ID287 |
 |
Mable was regretfully returned to rescue due to a family divorce. Her manners are impeccible and she's a very easy keeper. After a few weeks being fostered, we found the perfect family for her. This is their first RR, and she'll be a great introduction to the breed. After meeting her they were smitten and knew that she was the dog they'd been so patiently waiting for!

Ridgie is a great dog with awesome obedience skills. Her owners regretfully gave her up due to a transfer to a location outside of the U.S. She's now living in a great new home with an individual who has lots of time to spend with her, not to mention a fenced in yard where she can play.

YES |
ID285 |
 |
Dinky is the sweetest dog and a real pleaser. His new home couldn't be luckier to have him and he's just as lucky to have them. He's the only dog with no kids or dogs to compete with and is already spoiled rotten. The couple who adopted him have a large fenced in yard and lots of love and time to devote to him. He's already discovered that basking out on their back porch is a favorite activity!

YES |
N/A |
 |
Ciera was surrendered to rescue by her owners due to their inexperience in dealing with the challenges that a Ridgeback puppy is known for. Fortunately, she's found a home with an experienced Ridgeback owner. She'll have another Ridgeback as her big brother and will be starting obedience classes. In addition, her new home plans on pursuing lure coursing with her. Ciera is a fast girl with lots of energy, so she'll probably be a star!

ID211 |

Lela was originally imported from Ghana, Africa as a gift to family in the U.S. They quickly learned how challenging a Rhodesian Ridgeback puppy can be and they dropped her off at the animal shelter. After spending a couple of weeks in a foster home, the perfect family was found for her. Lela has a wonderful home with a couple who's very active, has a large fenced yard and are committed to taking her to obedience school. As her name indicates, Lela is an expressive, friendly dog with a great personality. She's a very special companion to her new family!

Pee Wee is the most loving and happy dog one could ever meet. He came into Rescue knowing only life in a cage, but now in his twilight years, Pee Wee is learning about all the wonderful things life has to offer. His new home is everything he could ask for - a wonderful couple to spoil him, a big yard to play in and another Ridgeback friend who's in her twilight years.
