Amuri Rhodesian Ridgebacks is situated in the village of Murchison, near the top of the South Island, NZ. Living on a lifestyle block, our dogs enjoy sharing the land with our cattle, sheep & horses. The girls are part of our family, & are involved in almost everything we do. From helping with the orphan lambs/calves, cafés/shopping, beach runs, to strutting their stuff in the show ring. My passion for this breed started over 20 years ago, after having a bitch & her son. They had never left my heart, so the hunt for another RR blessed us with THREE girls from Koruridge. We are so very proud to own them. My husband is now hooked, & so Amuri Rhodesian Ridgebacks was born! Our girls have tested clear for Degenerative Myelopathy, Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy, & do not carry the Dilute/Blue coat colour gene. All have excellent Hip/Elbow scoring, and great natures. Going forward, any Dogs chosen for our Bitches will have been tested for the above. This breed is super versatile, so should have great natures & be sound for Lure Coursing, Agility, Obedience, Show Ring & most importantly, amazing companions! Our aim is to produce happy, healthy & correct examples of this wonderful breed. Pups will have first Vaccination/vet check, & have been wormed fortnightly. Successful applicants for our pups will receive NZKC Pedigree papers (conditions may apply), a sample of food, his/her blanket, puppy info pack, and on going support. Follow Amuri on Facebook for more photos.

Rhodesian Ridgeback are a large breed that are excellent guard dogs and family pets. They are loyal and kind and enjoy time lazing in the sun or curled up by a fire, my big girl currently spends her evenings as a therapy dog for my son, who reads with her every night. I have been privileged own Amber, my first RR and foundation dog to start my kennel. My RR are raised with myself, my children and are socialized with children, elderly and my smaller Japanese spitz dogs. I aim to breed true to type correct puppies using only the best lines. I enjoy showing my RR, and we also enjoy an array of outdoor activities. My RR are always keen to go for a walk and have been on hikes up Mt Te Aroha where we live. I am now taking expressions of interest for my next litter of puppies. These are well bred puppies and I hope to have more showing from the mother befor a litter. Each puppy will come with DogNZ pedigree papers. From carefully selected and health tested parents the puppies will be fully vet checked, vaccinated, and treated regularly to prevent worms/fleas. They each comes with a puppy package. I am always here to offer advice through out your puppies life.

Reluctantly, I am looking for a new forever home for my gorgeous Zuri (Australian Ch Rijstone Wyndrunhrs Rubys Gift (AI)) She is 6 years old, fit, trim and very healthy, has recently had a litter of pups and been desexed. She has a big outgoing cheeky personality. She is used to being with other ridgebacks and has lived inside and outside but now prefers to be inside and being amongst daily family life. She will either need the company of another ridgeback or people who are mainly home. She is very affectionate and craves attention. She is crate and toilet trained. She loves going for walks. She is excellent with people and children and may ok with other breeds of dogs if introduced slowly. No cats and Zuri has never been around one. Please email but preferably phone Vicki on 0400399842.

Having made a decision as to which of my gorgeous boys I am going to go on with from my last (after 40 years) Ridgeback litter, I am making Doc (Isilwane I Am The Future) available for sale. He is a 12 month old very handsome Liver nose boy, from fully tested parents. He has been rotating between my place (semi rural) and a good friend's (suburban surrounds), he is lead trained (slip collar and lead - no harnesses), crate trained, house trained, socialised with lots of other breeds including his Staffy girlfriend Millie, whippets, German Shepherds. He has also been shown with success (happy to consider someone who'd like to bond with him and take him out again - he doesn't like to be rushed). He is very well behaved in the house and was easily taught the boundary of the kitchen when goes on his visits, knows what "on your bed" means and loves bounding onto the bed in the morning for a smooch. Good with kids. Hasn't been around cats. He would do really really well with a companion but also fine if on his own with great humans in his life. This is not a rescue/rehouse situation. He is for sale and we have put a great deal of time and effort into making sure he has the best training (as has his brother) ready for when I made this decision. He is up to date on worming and vaccinations. Happy to do the move to a new home over time with visits and sleepovers to acclimatise him to a new home & family. Have patience re responses, I am a shiftworker and will get back to you
