Thai Ridgeback Puppies For Sale

The Thai Ridgeback is an independent dog originally bred to hunt wild game and vermin. They like to do things their own way and are a difficult breed for first-time dog owners. However, they do love their owners and will protect you from danger in the event of a threat. Full-grown, they typically weigh 35-75 pounds and stand 20-24 inches tall.

Thai Ridgebacks are generally okay with older children who know how to handle dogs. It’s best if your dog is able to come inside and be with you when you’re home but can also spend time outdoors. Thai Ridgebacks are not well-suited to life with cats or small children. They're moderate barkers — they'll alert you when something's up but aren't excessive.

Thai Ridgebacks need multiple opportunities for exercise every day. Long walks or hikes are good ways to help them burn off some of their large supply of energy. It’s important to walk them on a leash, as they are prone to chasing anything small and furry. Overall, their exercise needs are high.

Thai Ridgebacks have a classic ridge down their backs, which runs down the length of their whole back. They come in four rich, solid colors - red, fawn, black, or blue. Thai Ridgebacks have a short coat, and a weekly brushing is all that is needed to cut back on their mild shedding. Grooming-wise, this breed is low-maintenance.

Thai Ridgebacks are best suited for a home with a yard, though they can adapt to apartment life with enough exercise. It’s best if your dog is able to come inside and be with you when you’re home but can also spend time outdoors. They are fairly easy to train.
