FOOSA X CAPTAIN LITTER

"Foosa" lives here at Tifari Ridgebacks and was bred to "Captain" owned by Marie Sajewicz, Zareba Ridgebacks.  The breeding occured  in January of 2008.  We are very excited about this breeding. Both dogs have numerous titles showcasing their intelligence and willingness to please their owners. In Reginition of this, they have both recieved the honor of adding "VC" to their list of titles.  VC is a versatility certificate awarded by the National Ridgeback Club.    They both have passed extensive health tests and have EXCELLENT hips.   Each dogs has also made the RRCUS "Top 20" obedience list for 2006.  Aside from his wonderful temperament, Captain is known for his exceptionally fluid movement around the ring as well as his beautiful dark red coat color.  He finished his conformation champion title (Ch) with 4 Majors and numerous Best of Breeds over specials!  Captain also recently earned 2 Best Veteran awards at the age of 9.5 years: The RRCUS Supported Shows in Monroe, MI as well as The Best Veteran in California at the Orange Coast Regional Specialty.
