CHANGE ONLY SUCCEDS IF YOU TAKE NEW PATHS
For over 17 years I have passionately advocated for the acceptance of ridgeless dogs within Rhodesian Ridgeback breeding in Germany. While breeding programs abroad have already embraced ridgeless Ridgebacks, in Germany they remain heavily stigmatized. Many breeders still view the absence of the characteristic ridge along the back as a serious fault, even though it is merely a genetic mutation.
What is often overlooked is that ridgeless dogs can contribute to genetic diversity and significantly help reduce the risk of the genetic defect Dermoid Sinus. Nevertheless, aesthetic appearance dominates: the ridge is considered essential simply because it is part of the breed's name – Rhodesian Ridgeback.

Due to the new EU data protection ordinance, the pedigree data are no longer publicly accessible. You need to register and log in to get access to the pedigrees and other features.
For more than 20 years I've financed the whole database on my own and enter all the data myself. Please support this project with a one-time donation. After the donation has been made you will be accepted as a member and get access to the database.

COOPERATION....
....... with rhodesianridgeback.pedigreedatabaseonline.com/en/
We have decided to work together. However, since it is not so easy to merge the data, we have decided to keep the databases in parallel for the time being. If you cannot find informations about dogs in my database, please visit the "Rhodesian Ridgeback Pedigree Database" by Lisbeth Endresen (Kennel BelloRosario)
