Welcome to Bantu Basenjis & Ridgebacks ~  Oregon Grown & Junior Shown!
What a cute boy!

Rhodesian Ridgebacks
Having the basenjis to show and lure course wasn't enough of a challenge for
Shelby.... she wanted a Ridgeback!  So we welcomed Jester to our pack!  This boy
is handsome and a total dork.  (Hence the nicknames "Jestard" and "Pester"!)  We
doubt that this boy will ever fill out enough to compete in the breed ring, but
meanwhile he is working at lure coursing and enjoying country life.

Then came Ohana... a huge thank you to breeder Julie Schilling for entrusting this
pretty girl to us.  When we least expected it she was added to our pack and has
been a nice addition.  We have high hopes for this youngster in the ring; let's hope
she takes after daddy Ruger (with his multiple Best in Shows)!!  She will start lure
coursing s
oon as well and boy does she loooooooove to run!
