ZINFANDEL is a very special dog, sound and balanced; he loves hunting, swimming and going out with me cycling.
He is such a pleasure to live with and he enjoys showing too - winning is a bonus!
He gained his KC Good Citizen award as part of a breed display team at CRUFTS 2005.
Zinfandel has been a canine blood donor since 2006.
His progeny to date are all ridged and free from dermoid sinus.

Frozen semen also available.

" ...lovely example of the breed, very well balanced with no exaggerations, classic Ridgeback head, good length of muzzle, good stop, ear carriage & dark eye, in fit condition, moved effortlessly round the ring, beautiful distinct ridge with clear crowns. To me he represented true Ridgeback type, of correct size, an overall picture of an athletic hound. BP & CC, challenged strongly for BOB..." Patricia Barber, Crufts 2005.

"...very nice moderate red wheaten, nice proportions to head with pleasing expression & correct planes, good length of neck, shoulder layback, length & layback of upper arm, good depth of brisket & moderate width to chest, good bone and nice feet, nice topline but tailset slightly high. Could use a very slightly longer second thigh. All in all a very pleasing, sound dog with good reach & drive and straight & true on the away & back, showed really well. CC & RBIS" Janet Wang, RRCGB 2006.

" ...very strongly built and handsome with it, well muscled and super boned, large capacious ribcage, delighted to see his high set ears with mobility, this really gave his head and expression impetus, so proud and alert, strong, true movement, was very impressive, powerhouse of a dog with the style of an athlete." Eleanor Bothwell, Hound Group, Darlington 2007.
