She survived childbirth well, takes care of her pups and has milk in abundance. One puppy stays, for the other we are looking for a good home.
On June 9th, Themba has been covered by Inanda Mellberg Quentin C aka Opie. A young beautifull male born and raised in South Africa. Opie was bred by Marie Wijkander, owner of the Inanda Mellberg Kennel, Opie is a so-called working dog, with an impressive pedigree. For example he has Clachan Boyaid as his sire, bred by Scotty Stewart. He is a true African Rhodesian Ridgeback, with predominantly African parents and ancestors. Opie is also very intererestingly bred in the dam line. His grandfather is Vizara Jukati bred by Rens Trappel and Mariette van der Veer. Vizara Jukati is one of the jewels among the Rhodesion Ridgebacks. Opie now lives with Alain and Nathalie in Luxembourg and is being trained in blood tracking, in which he is very successful.
And then Themba, very loyal to our family. Physically and mentally very strong and very active. Themba also has a very beautiful and impressive pedigree with African bloodlines such as from Pronkberg and Sarula and also with her the Vizara bloodlines. Her grandmother from father's side is Vizara Likoma Lechaim and Themba's great-grandfather from mother's side is Vizara Jukati. So it will be a linebreeding on this beautiful male Vizara Jukati!. We expect very beautiful, healthy and eager to work Rhodesian Ridgebacks from this combination.

Themba has had a brilliant nest in oktober 2018, with very beautiful offspring. The puppy from this litter are now 4 years old and have evolved into healthy, stable and especially sweet Rhodesion Ridgebacks. We are very satisfied with the offspring of Aresvuma Simba Sultani and Themba.
Due to the success of Themba's previous (first) litter, we have decided to have her mated for a second time. Also now our choice has fallen on a male far from here. It is a sweet, beautiful, but above all healthy Ridgeback, which fits very nicely with Themba's pedigree.
