In this video, we are counting down the top 10 facts about the Thai Ridgeback that you might not know.
A Quick Overview:
Group: Hound Dogs
Weight: 35-75 pounds
Height: 20-24 inches
Life Expectancy: 12 to 13 years
As the Thai Ridgeback existed in a relatively isolated part of Thailand, it is thought that there was little cross-breeding through the years and many people describe them as a truly ‘pure’ breed. Considering the Thai Ridgeback is a breed that developed long before written records were kept, it is likely we will never know for sure exactly how they came to be.
A multi-purpose dog, the Thai Ridgeback has filled many roles in its time, including that of vermin exterminator, cart puller, boar hunter, and watchdog. Interestingly, it is also claimed that they will detect and fight off cobras and other snakes, protecting their owners from potentially dangerous bites.
A medium-sized, muscular dog, the handsome Thai Ridgeback is a real head-turner. They are devoted to their owner and will be fiercely protective of their family and territory. Intensive training is required to avoid unwanted aggression and to ensure this breed does not develop hostile behaviors when older.
Most Thai Ridgebacks are now companion dogs rather than hunters or guardians. However, they still maintain many of the same instincts for the jobs that they were bred. They are independent, self-sufficient, and fully capable of hunting for their own food. The prey drive is high and they have the intelligence to use it.

I have a 6 month old Thai Ridgeback and he is the most amazing pup!! He is cautious of strangers but once they give him some good pets he loves them. He is very dominant, intelligent, always alert, with sudden bursts of crazy goofy puppy energy
What color is he? I have a 10yo red/brown female shes super intelligent and extremely protective. I was told her parents and all of her siblings were put down due to aggression and that shes the only survivor of her bloodline, but being that there are less than 50 in the US and only 1,000 in Thailand, makes me wonder if theyre related.
@@bondjamesbond2849 He is blue/gray. He is from a great line of dogs, his dad was imported from Poland and his mom was raised here in Texas. From Clements Ridge Kennel
Origin of the Thai ridgeback dog in Trat Province, Thailand
The Rhodesian ridgeback originated from the Thai ridgeback. In 1870, Cornelis Van Rooyen, a famous hunter at the time, crossbreed the Thai ridgeback with the Mastiff and Greyhound, after which the breed has evolved over time. eventually became a Rhodesian ridgeback.
Now go give all that credit back to Google.
It is thought that the RR and the Thai Ridgeback are both related through an ancestor from the island of Phu Quoc, as both breeds share two genetic traits - ridges and the dermoid sinus.
Where did the ridge originate? No one knows for sure, but a plausible theory is that tribes living along the west coast had a lively trade with Asian sea-faring people
The Rhodesian Ridgeback is a large dog breed bred in the Southern Africa region. Its forebears can be traced to the semi-domesticated ridged hunting and guardian dogs of the Khoikhoi. These were interbred with European dogs by the early colonists of the Cape Colony for assisting in the hunting of lions. Wikipedia
Does your independent and confident Thai Ridgeback tend to have a mind of its own?
Do they make a perfect watchdog and guardian?
Let us know in the comments!
They are stunning dogs. The black ones look like Anubis
Phú Quốc is a Vietnamese island off the coast of Cambodia in the Gulf of Thailand. The Phu Quoc Ridgeback is a rare breed of dog from the island of Phú Quốc in Kiên Giang Province in southern Vietnam. It is one of three ridgeback breeds, the others being the Rhodesian Ridgeback and the Thai Ridgeback. 🤔 Wikipedia.
They eat dogs there. Nothing left
i got one his name is max
Just lost lady 2 years now past at 11 years GREAT COMPANION LOYALTY IS AMAZING LOOKING FOR A PUP LMK
Are the pups full bred? I have a pure bred 10yo red/brown female that I rescued at 1yo from an abusive owner. Theres now less than 50 in the US. I was told that her heirs and all of her siblings were put down due to aggression and Ive been told shes the only survivor, but it would be cool to know if she had any siblings I didnt know about. It’s possible that our Ridgebacks are related
Reminds me of my female german shepherd!!!
Owner off one for 11 years LADY EVERYTHING YOU HAVE MENTIONED IS EXACTLY WGAT SHE WAS RIP LOOKING FOR ANOTHER ONE UF YOU KNOW OF ANY BREEDERS PLEASE LMK ASAP THANKS
ฉลาดรักเจ้าของครับ😊
Are they sight or scent hunters?
I think sight. They are supposedly bred to hunt cobras.
Sight. The nose isn't as good as a lot of dogs. But anything small that moves, they attack.
The Rhodesian Ridgeback is partly descended from the southern African indigenous Hottentot Khoi dog, a known ridge-bearing dog. The gene that causes the ridge has been inherited from a common ancestor: "The geographical origin of the ridge present in Ridgeback dogs is still a mystery, thus solid proof has now been provided that the ridge mutation in Ridgeback dogs is identical by descent and the likelihood of parallel mutations occurring in Asia and Africa (Epstein, 1937) can therefore be rejected."[2]
I wonder can they kill rattlesnakes too like they do cobras
That's it...I'm smitten. Could never afford one. I'm curious how much one would be from Thai breeder. Would $15k get one down here??🤷♂️🇦🇺🙋♂️🇦🇺
Omg 15k?! I got one in thailand for free. If you're still looking, I'm sure I could locate one for you. I have 3 dogs and had many before, but never known a human animal connection like I have with my ridgeback. I'm certain she would risk her life to save me. Yet very intelligent also.
@@sockinvadersI'm in Australia. I'm sure it would be expensive to get one. So expensive I'd hafta sell a kidney to get one!!🤣🤣
My sister in law had a Rhodaision Ridge Back several years ago ,very beautiful and smart and. very strong.She could hardly handle him ,only her Sons were able to control him .l was afraid of him & l.love dogs .he senced l was scared.
Basenji on steroids...
Good shout
*PATTERDALE TERRIER*
Not a family dog
Any dog can be a family dog if you raise it properly.
It is a true family dog. it will protect the family But if you bring someone you don't know, it takes time. I am the Thai people who raised them to death. It never bites your family if you don't hurt it.
Weird - Was an AMAZING family dog for us - 14 years.
@@d.a.s.3921 can they be alone for 8 hours?
Met one at work today who was properly socialised, and I was a stranger on her farm, she couldn't have been friendlier
THEY TIES TORTURE 😡 AND EAT THEM AS WELL. FOR REAL💯😤.
Phú Quốc belongs to Vietnam not Thailand.
