Maloni Ridge

This page is dedicated to my son Tony.
As I mentioned in talking about our interest in Rhodesian Ridgebacks, my son Tony was the one who introduced us to the breed. He has always been an animal lover, like me. On this page you will see his love for animals and the photos I have cherished over the years.

Recently we had a visit from a 10 week old Mastiff puppy named Sam. He had been attacked by another dog and was very shy. Eli along with Kal & Oliver were so gentle with him that by the time he went home he was playing and having a ball with the three grown male Ridgebacks.

Tony ( with horse) and his cousins at his first rodeo. I lost him and when I found him he was rubbing faces with this horse. The owner said the horse was not friendly but took to Tony right away.
