Thai Ridgeback Pups

[Steiner]

I have some Thai Ridgeback Pups looking for good homes.
They are full bred TRDs so you know what you are getting.
2 males, 3 females.

Only a home setting, the pups have been raised to date in our home and never caged.
Looking for the same.
All are house trained and vaccines to date.
NO breeders!
I could have sold them to breeders a dozen times over, but I won't let them go rot in a cage, so they are going out free to good homes.

Only to people with a house, a garden and continuity in Thailand.
I will ask questions, if you're from a generation that can't communicate or that would offend, don't apply. ????

PM me with a number or contact.
I'm in Bkk.

Sam:
Big male pup, I'd guess his adult weight at 28-30 kilos.
Quiet temperament, calm and confident.
Sad face, happy tail!




Ben:
Male, strong confident pup, ready to go to the gate if any strangers pass.
I'd guess his adult weight around 27 kilos.






Mee: (Bear)
Female.
Thought she looked like a bear cub with that black face, so she got "Luak Mee" as a name.
Very affectionate and full of life.
Beautiful colours, black face, black socks, black tail.
Balanced fit dog.
I'd estimate her adult weight at 24 kilos.






Mocca:
Female.
Affectionate, loves to climb, fearless.
I'd estimate her adult weight to be a tight and wiry 22-23 kilos.
Mocca has some spark in her.
Smart and should be easy to train, she's very bidable.
You wouldn't have a rat or a snake left alive with her around!





Stitch: 
Female.
Stitch is a little different, her tail wags up/down not side to side, looks a bit like a water pump when she's happy.
Often found in her own world she is quiet and low maintenance.
She doesn't appreciate references that she looks like Yoda. ????
Has a kink in her tail like a magician's wand, cute little thing, rarely barks.




Stitch is not amused by Yoda comparisons!

@Steiner That's a really great bunch of pups you have there. If my situation was different and I didn't already have 2 dogs who currently take up a lot of my time, I would be asking you for a couple of them in a heartbeat. It's good to see like minded people like you who know and care about dogs. Keep up the good work. See attached pics of my dogs Leo & Chang (bitches actually).

Females would probably be fine with him.
Both males would eventually be bigger than Kev so one day they would work it out.
2 of the girls are calm and easy, 1 is somewhat spicy, although I like that in a dog.
Usually means easier training and the girl will always give authority to the male dog eventually.
Mocca is the spicy one and already understands basic commands, sit, stay, leave etc.
Mee and Stitch (Yoda) are easy going.

Pups are 11 weeks old.
My bad, forgot to put that in the OP.

Pups are all happily homed now.
Very happy with the new parents and locations.
Many thanks to all who contacted me, even those who were unsuccessful.

Absolute beauties mate!!!!

How is the health of those ridgebacks in Thailand. Got a Ambull from a local breeder here, and it is horrible to see how they treat their animals, and how they breed for colours and look, and not health. We almost got our for free, since nobody wanted him and was the last left. 

 

I could not let him go to any others, so happy to know we provided a good home for him and regulary checks with the veterinary.

Well done @Steiner

Well done and lovely for the pups. I was always a large dog person, but since I have been here, I have fallen in love with Shih Tzu's.  I now have 2 and looking for a third.  Dogs make all the difference to quality of life, but finding safe places to walk them, so that they can run free for a while and interact with other domestic dogs,  has been bit of a nightmare, until we found Wisdom Valley ( near Pattaya area) and a bunch of dog lovers who use that excellent location.

Ridgebacks are probably the healthiest pedigree dog on the planet at this point.
It's a breed that only recently came to the attention of the dog show crowd, so damage to the breed has been minimal and the genepool is generally diverse.
One can see that when looking at the variation between dogs of the breed, size, shape and colouration are all varied because they did until recently breed naturally.

Different story in Europe and The UK where early imports came from a dog with defects in Eastern Europe.
Puppy farmer's have a lot to answer for!

I've had no issues with any of the ones I've owned, although I don't listen to local vets outside of tests I make my own dog health choices, things they have said to me regarding dogs! 

If you were getting a pup I'd go spend an hour with any prospective litter, they have very different personalities and traits, getting that grounded but confident pup will make training a lot easier as they are intelligent and can appear stubborn.

Unfortunately I have to update this thread.

I let 2 of the pups go to a local who received 2 happy healthy confident pups.
When I went to take them back a month later they had been abused, underfed, obviously hit and in the final stages of parvo, as he let them around infected dogs before they had been fully vaxed.

Hospital gave the dogs 5% and 20% chance of survival.
Long story short and 200k later both dogs came home alive.
Since then I built their health with a good raw meat diet and built their confidence.

Now the male Ben is ready for a new home.
I would have loved to have kept him but his father is not having it and has already bit him, big dogs don't mess around so I have to abandon that dream and find him a good owner.
Gutted because I was enjoying working with the kid, but I should have known better.

He is a happy healthy dog, brave, highly intelligent, easy dog to train.
Loves a walk more than any dog I've ever seen!
Boy goes crazy when I reach for the running shorts.
Prone to Zoomies! 555

Ben is now 8 months, still very much the pup in temperament and would easily integrate after a few days.
He is extremely caring, his owner should expect an endless show of affection once accepted.
Clean dog who has great toilet training.

Anyone interested in this awesome boy message me a number and we can chat to see if you are a fit for each other.
