COLTIMO

Coltimo Kennels - "Joy First, Courage Always" I am a small, bespoke, Rhodesian Ridgeback breeder located in Sydney, NSW. Home of multiple show champions, including BISS, MBISS Neuter, Class in Show and Class in Group winners. Litters are not regularly scheduled, with breeding often planned years in advance with specific aims in mind. I value the relationships I build with other Ridgeback breeders, owners, and admirers around the world, and strive to keep the common goal of protecting and showcasing our breed foremost in my mind. I aim to breed athletic, correct, confident hounds, built to succeed in their fundamental purpose. My goal is to produce ridgebacks who are not only eye catching and well behaved in the show ring, but strong and driven on the lure coursing field. All dogs are hip and elbow scored, genetically screened, and heart certified by a cardiologist prior to being considered in our breeding program. Puppies are lovingly reared in my home, and receive carefully designed Early Neurological Stimulation, socialisation, and confidence building exposure to noises like fireworks and thunder.
