Welcome to our web pages. We are Derek and Jean Smith living in Essex,
England and have been owned by ridgebacks for the last twenty five plus years.
While they have brought us every conceivable emotion, their overiding gift to us
is that of joy and laughter!
In our opinion they are a breed apart - sensitive and delicate of mind, strong
but gentle in body. Once smitten by this wonderful breed it is extremely
difficult to live without them, we tried once, when our old boy
Simba died, but managed for
only two weeks. Since that sad day in 1998, somehow or another six others have
taken his place, Kimba,
Rosko,
Lotti,
Maestro, (who was imported
from Sweden under the "Pet Passport Scheme"), Phoenix
and Lilly.
We trust that you'll enjoy browsing our site. For those of you not fortunate
enough to have been owned by a ridgeback, hopefully it will offer a small
insight into this wonderful breed. For those that have, well, you'll recognize
the symptoms and know that there is no known cure!!!
