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

Rhodesian Ridgeback
Having three basenjis to show and lure course wasn't enough of a challenge for
Shelby.... she wanted a Ridgeback!  We were fortunate enough to find Northwest
breeders Joe & Jennie Piott that were looking to place a nice boy in a show home.  

Welcome Jester to our pack!  This boy is a beauty and a total spaz.  (Hence the
nicknames "Jestard" and "Pester"!)  Shelby has been working with him at handling
class and he
appears to be a natural.  Watch for this pair to hit the show and Juniors
ring come December.  We're a ways off from lure coursing him since he's just a
pup, but he's been out watching the Basenjis and other hounds run and definitely
has the instinct and desire to chase that bunny!  (Just like momma Rosie...)
Jester e
arned his JC title July 2008 at the WVBC trial.

More photos and extended pedigree coming soon!
