Rhodesian Ridgeback
Rhodesian Ridgebacks (70-85 pounds) are strong, loyal, and dignified, best for experienced owners. They’re good with kids when socialized but may be too strong for toddlers. High exercise (1-2 hours daily, running or hiking) suits them; their short coat needs minimal brushing.
Feed 3-4 cups daily of Royal Canin Large Breed Adult Dry Dog Food, with 26% protein for their muscular build and joint health. Monitor portions to avoid obesity. Suited for both indoor and outdoor living with space, they’re not for apartments.
Training curbs protectiveness. Perfect for active households, Ridgebacks thrive with space, not for urban or first-time homes.
