1st cross ridgeback greyhound


Recommended Posts


The Ridgeback originally was bred for hunting down lions as a hound would in Africa so yes of course it would make an ideal sperm donor for a lurcher !

 

What exactly do people in the UK hunt with their Ridgebacks before deciding they're so useful they'll stick them over a greyhound ?

 

Exotic for the sake of exotic ?

has the ridgeback been used fir hunting in the british isles. the rhodesian ridgeback has not being used a huting dog for some time i have always thought this would be an interesting cross a possible alternative to the bull cross.

 

It sounds like a good x, a ridgeback is a very powerful dog :victory: if you can use the right one,

you should have a good nose+ strong jaw, good stamina , a good hunting dog. I wonder why you

dont see more about.???????????
