My one-year-old pup is a real mystery hound ... he's clearly got some Dachshund and/or Basset in him, but I also think he's part Rhodesian Ridgeback. I'm not sure how the reproductive logisitcs would have worked out there, but that's my story and I'm sticking to it.
You can't really tell from the pic, but he's got a stripe of darker hair running down his spine and he has a prominent patch of white on his chest, which I've seen on a lot of Ridgebacks.
Anyway, I wanted to hear thoughts about Ridgebacks from anyone who is familiar with them. How would you describe their temperament, activity levels, etc.? Are they known for anything in particular (aside from their lion-hunting heritage)? Thanks!
