If you want to own a ridgeback, you’d best be active — they are fast and powerful athletes that can tip the scales at about 90 pounds. Training is essential for the breed that is fiercely independent and may run your household if left unchecked.
Nonetheless, ridgebacks are faithful and overly affectionate with their chosen family.
