Mountain Rhodesian Ridgeback

Mountain Rhodesian Ridgeback breeds Rhodesian ridgebacks in Batesville, AR, serving Independence County and the Ozarks near Little Rock. Christopher Dehesa has been committed to breeding healthy companions for over a decade.

As a member of national kennel clubs, Mountain Rhodesian Ridgeback ensures each puppy undergoes hip and elbow evaluations and temperament screenings. Puppies are raised in a home environment with daily socialization and gentle exposure to household sounds and routines. A few ridgebacks from its program have earned working dog titles, reflecting a focus on balanced temperament and physical endurance.

The family-run farm sits on several acres of fenced pasture, allowing dogs ample space to roam and develop strong musculature. Information on upcoming litters is available on the breeder’s website, and the open-door policy lets visitors observe puppies engaging in everyday activities. Raised with respect for the breed’s heritage, its program emphasizes ridgeback’s instincts for tracking and loyalty.
