Hi everyone,

I’m based in Vancouver, BC and currently looking for a male Rhodesian Ridgeback puppy from a reputable breeder. I’ve been actively searching for the past 3+ months and am ready to move forward as soon as the right opportunity comes up.

I’m willing to travel a reasonable distance (a few hours outside Vancouver is fine) if it means finding a well-bred, healthy puppy from a responsible breeder who prioritizes temperament, health testing, and proper early development.

A bit about me:
I have hands-on experience with large, high-energy breeds (including Alaskan Malamutes and similar dogs)
I understand the commitment, structure, and training required for a Ridgeback
I’m looking for a long-term companion and am fully prepared for the responsibility

I’m specifically looking for:
A male puppy
From a breeder who conducts health testing (hips, elbows, etc.)
Proper early socialization and ethical breeding practices

I understand these dogs aren’t always immediately available, but if anyone knows of upcoming litters, reputable breeders, or waitlists (sooner the better!, but I’m willing to wait) in BC or nearby areas, I’d really appreciate the help.
Thanks in advance — I genuinely appreciate any leads or guidance.

(Any tips will be appreciated)

Hey,

I live in Vancouver BC

I’ve been looking for a Rhodesian Ridgeback for awhile, and been trying to get one asap. I’m willing to drive a distance to get this dog if I really have to (but not really far like 6 hours +, unless no closer) if you know any please let me know!

Thank you all I really appreciate you taking the time to read this.

Edit:

My post wasn’t the best but doesn’t mean I’m suited for this. I’ve been in the market for at least at least 3 months heavily for this dog. I’ve done much research, and have experience with dogs like Alaskan malamutes and more. I cannot adopt sadly, and are looking a male. Me wanting one asap, from a reputable breeder is what I want, and I came here if you guys had knew any in my area. My post wasn’t the best, but doesn’t mean I’m not suited for this because I know for a fact I am, and that I’ve been patience.

Hey,

I was really interested in Ridgebacks for a long time and found one that I can get now from the url pasted.

I was wondering if the breeder is trusted, they seem like a good breeder but I also don’t know much when it comes to breeder standards.

Also why are some dogs more than others? Such as yellow boy being $1800 and blue/red boy being 2500?

I am interested I males

I live in Vancouver but are willing to travel

Thanks a lot
