Is my new puppy mixed with Rhodesian?
« on: July 10, 2010, 06:16 PM »
Hi I adopted a puppy from the shelter who I think might be mixed with Rhodesian Ridgeback but I'm not sure. I'm naturally curious about it and would appreciate your expert opinions on the matter. She's 6 months old, 38 pounds and very very smart. She has a somewhat wrinkly forehead and neck/shoulders etc. She does not have a ridge though. Pictures below. Thanks!

I'd say there is a pretty good chance she has some ridgeback in her.

I don't know, I suppose it is possible, but she actually reminds me a lot of an old fashioned Staffy.  Whatever, I am sure she is very sweet and will give you lots of love and companionship.  Lucky girl to have found you.
