Yogi is growing nicely & we are looking forward to showing him at Windsor on the 1st of July; We will let you know how he does!  

Big thank you to Linus Moran for coming up to photograph the pups on Friday; He has the patience of a saint, & expertise to do a brilliant job!  The pups slept really well that night! Have a look at his brilliant website www.linusmoran.co.uk  He will be able to supply copies of the prints if any of you would like some.  We now have only two pups available, one dog & one bitch from the Kobe X Boris litter, but i defy you to pick out the different litters in the photo! They all are like peas in a pod! JE

We also have just picked up our new puppy dog; YOGI, from Mike & Linda Parke (Veldtkammer) He is by V Mega Hassle (Gabanna) X Hespa High As a Kite At V (Africa) He is very dark red, & VERY special! Hugh thanks to Mike & Linda for letting us have this gorgeous boy! AE

We now have 1 male puppy available age 10 weeks (Due to us turning people down for him, as being un-suitable to own a RR!) from the Chobe X Gabanna litter, he is dark red, with a good ridge. He has had his vaccinations, been wormed 5 times now, and thoroughly checked for DS. He has a very easy going temperament. Please contact me for details.

 We have mated Kyumbe to a Zulu son called Boris, these pups will be due at the end of Feb and ready top go at the end of March 2010. We will be making a page for Boris as soon as Amy has time, in the meantime if you would like to see how handsome he is please contact me! AE

We have 4 male puppies available, from Jomi & Chobe's puppies - please see the Our Litters page to see photos. (All sold now) JE

We have been working hard on updating and refreshing our website...you will notice a few new pages and an 'archive' section for old news, old testimonials etc. Please bear with us over the next few days if things don't quite work as they should...Amy is hard at work trying to get the site finished!

Shortly we will be adding new YouTube videos of our dogs and puppies. Puppy videos will be available to view on the Litters page and also on the Video Gallery page. Watch this space...and as always, let us know your thoughts!

The report is very in-depth so we have just listed some of the highlights here. We do have the original copy of the report to show prospective owners, and are very proud of our excellent inspection results. We work hard to provide a safe and comfortable environment for our dogs and puppies - they are all members of our family and are treated as such. We are also very proud to have been involved with the Accredited Breeder Scheme since the start. Breeding healthy, happy puppies is what we do!
 

We have puppies due in October, please contact me for details. As i have said before we do like to meet you before you can go on our waiting list, so please be prepared to come & visit us! Of course I understand if this isn't possible, just call me for a chat, I am sure we can sort something out!. 

As of May 2009, due to Family commitments,  we do not have any puppies due or expected. If you are interested in having a puppy from us please get in touch with me in August 2009 for an up-date. We have a couple of bitches due in season then that we will be mating.

If any of you reading this own a Zejak Ridgeback, please get in touch with me to let me know how he/she is doing, I am interested to know how old our dogs are getting to & what illnesses, if any, they have had. Please help me with this very important research. If you would also like to write a few lines for the testimonials & send a photo that would be most appreciated too!
