Rhodesian Ridgeback Dogs Available for Adoption in Viroqua, Wisconsin

Remedy has lived a rough life so far. She was unnamed and left tied to trees until it was time to breed. She had at least 1 litter, but more than likely more than that.

Remedy, the dad, and a puppy were rescued from a parking lot at an Animal Swap. She was rescued by a lovely lady who did her best, but understood that she could not properly care for all 3 dogs in town.

She seems pretty confident so far, a little shy, but with TLC and patience, she will make a great partner in life! She is estimated to be about 2 years old.

While she will require a special trusting home to help her learn how to become a dog and enjoy life, it will all be worth it in the end! She does need a home without cats or small animals, as her prey drive is high and she will grab running small critters.

Remedy is said to be a purebred Rhodesian Ridgeback, but we do believe she is a mix. Either way, she is 100% adorable and ready to find her people!

The Rhodesian Ridgeback, originally from Southern Africa, is a breed known for its distinctive ridge of hair along its back that grows in the opposite direction of the rest of its coat. This intelligent and loyal dog is a versatile hunter, originally bred to track and contain lions. With a strong and muscular build, the Rhodesian Ridgeback is also a loving and devoted family companion, displaying affection and protectiveness towards its loved ones.

Our mission is to rescue. Our dream is that one day we won't have to.
