My #RhodesianRidgeback guidebook is out now! Buy it at the link below because I don't have any backup plans in life!

Probably my favorite part about letting Ridgebacks

Probably my favorite part about letting Ridgebacks play off-leash is that when offered the freedom to go anywhere, they decide the best place for an all out war is exactly where your knees are

The face you make when you hit publish on a book and have no idea what's going to happen

Well, what happened was an incredibly generous upswell of support! Thanks to everyone who bought the book and helped it rank as the #1 new Dog Training book on Amazon

And thanks to everyone here who has offered encouragement along the way. Anytime you left a kind word or shared my work with others it pushed me to keep writing and keep posting my successes, failures and misadventures with Ridgebacks. I hope that publishing this map of where I've been will help others find where they need to go in order to make the most of their own Ridgeback journey

Though this book will eventually give me a three figure net-worth that few of you could ever dream of, I solemnly promise not to let my impending hundred-aire status change me!

A decade ago, I was lost. I couldn't see the way forward in life, and I couldn't even navigate my own feelings. So I decided to follow through on the only thing I felt certain about and get a Rhodesian Ridgeback puppy

I was still lost. But I had Eko, and that made all the difference. With Eko's help I found my way, both in life and as a first time Ridgeback owner. I thought all the research I did would prepare me for the challenge, but I soon realized that knowing the breed standard or general information was such a far cry from understanding everything which makes Ridgebacks so unique

One of my favorite parts of the blog, YouTube channel and Instagram account is making the breed more accessible for those considering Ridgebacks themselves. And one of my favorite compliments is when I get a note from people who say my work helped them begin their own Ridgeback adventure

That's why I decided to publish this ebook! Available now on Amazon (link in bio), Rhodesian Ridgeback Puppies consolidates, updates and significantly expands upon all the posts, videos and content prospective Ridgeback owners have found most helpful over the years

Covering everything from breeders, diet, and exercise to training, spay/neuter and Ridgeback-specific quirks, this is the nuanced guide I wish existed when I first researched the breed. Rather than provide a single answer to each question, I hope it equips people to make the best and most informed decisions for themselves

Whether its your first Ridgeback, or you're a seasoned hand, I hope the book offers a helpful perspective for making the most of your own journey. If you do buy the book and find it helpful, I'd be eternally grateful if you can leave a review. If I play my cards right, after expenses, I could make dozens of dollars off this thing!!!! __________________________________

"Are they the same breed?" . It's one of the most

"Are they the same breed?" .

It's one of the most common questions I get in person. And it's an understandable one, since Zero is built like an anvil and Penny looks like a switchblade

One of my favorite parts about Ridgebacks is that they have such a wide array of shapes and sizes, but they all still share a certain quintessential character

Ridgebacks are not all created equal, and that's a wonderful thing!

Are Rhodesian Ridgebacks Easy to Train? . No! And

Are Rhodesian Ridgebacks Easy to Train? .

No! And despite all the fun photos and videos I post, we're always working on some kind of training - failing in new and spectacular ways each day. It's tough to keep the camera rolling while training through behavioral challenges, but I've collected a bunch of clips from the past couple months showing our progress (and lack there of) taming Zero's triggers
If you're struggling with your own dog's behavior, I hope you find the video a helpful reminder that even D-list famous Ridgebacks have plenty of troubles too! (Full length video is posted on today's blog - link in bio)

I love instagram accounts with immaculate homes, neatly manicured children, and the best behaved dogs where everything seems to be effortlessly perfect

I find this type of content very relatable as I watch my disheveled child sleep underneath my dogs in a pile couch cushions the dogs pulled onto the floor

For some reason I don't think I ever shared this video on my feed, but it's pretty much scientific proof that Ridgebacks descend from velociraptors

I kept thinking I was leaving the bin unlocked, until I set up a sting operation and discovered Penny doing this! She even had Zero be her patsy for the final infiltration

To prevent any further Penny's 11 type heists, I now keep a clamp around the handle. That should do it....I hope

If you ever need a smile, Zero is happy to lend you one of his. He always has more than enough to go around

On mornings I'm not feeling my best, I can trust this pup to joyfully headbutt me until I can't help but grin!
