Kinshasa Rhodesian Ridgebacks

The old hunting crew .

This next  page is dedicated to the original  hunting crew, as I called them. They were a wonderful team of dogs that did everything I asked of them and more. They were my companions on many a hunting trip, and gave me great pleasure watching them hunt in the bush, or just on their daily walks. Whilst they did show, they had their best times in the field, or curled up beside the campfire at night. Their skills in tracking game , was unsurpassed, and  their incredible stamina was always a pleasure to see. At times when the hunt looked like achieving no results, they would manage to get a scent of their game, and start of in pursuit once more. Some of our most memorable hunts in the early eighties went for  half a day or more. They asked for nothing more than  a drink or perhaps a swim, and a feed with a good place to sleep after a days hunt. We spent many a wonderful night in the bush, beside a campfire together.

After the hunt they all have a big swim & cool off.
