Diablo Rhodesian Ridgebacks
Our Home
We acquired our first Ridgeback, Molly, in 1996. A few years later, after we had become thoroughly impressed with the attributes of the breed, we decided we should have one more. Not all members of our household remember this. Solo was added to our family in early 2001. Shelby appeared, mysteriously, in late 2001.

Frequently, we are visited by Solo's and Shelby's puppies. Their conformation training begins in the cul-de-sac in front of our home.

Our dogs have no idea that they're dogs. On the couch and floor from left to right are: Shelby, Molly, and Solo.
We became active in conformation and other Ridgeback activities as Solo was earning his championship.

In 2005, Shelby had her first litter of puppies, bred and whelped with the help of other well recognized breeders.

Potential puppy owners are carefully screened to ensure that puppies are placed in loving homes, with owners educated about both the benefits and the drawbacks of the breed, and with a clear understanding of the commitment they are undertaking.

It is our intention to breed with appropriate attention to size, proportion, and substance, with a deliberate focus on elegance of stride.

Our dogs are OFA certified for hip dysplasia, elbows, and thyroid.
