Imari Ridgebacks

Imari Ridgebacks offers Rhodesian ridgebacks in Bloomsbury, NJ, serving Hunterdon County and the New York metro area. The breeding program follows national breed club guidelines, includes health testing for hips, elbows, and eyes through a recognized canine organization, and assesses temperament in varied settings.

Mija Cyphert raises her ridgebacks on a small family farm near the Delaware River, where puppies play in open fields and learn to interact respectfully with livestock and visiting guests. Early socialization exposes each puppy to household routines, children and gentle handling, forming a foundation for a calm, confident companion. Each puppy leaves with thorough health records and guidance on nutrition, training and ongoing care, ensuring a smooth transition to its new home.

Their adults live indoors with the family, transitioning to a secure outdoor kennel for fresh air and supervised exercise. Several ridgebacks from their program have earned titles in regional obedience and scent trials, highlighting their versatility beyond companionship.
