Kaktus comes from the Nyathi “C” litter. This litter was small in size (only 3 puppies) but big in quality. Kaktus and his sister Rain are the only correct puppies (plus 1 boy with small kink), both conform to CKRR’s breeding conditions and are used in breeding. They are healthy, typical ridgebacks with excellent temperaments. Both of them are holding several titles. The parents of Kaktus are South African import mother and Swedish father. His pedigree is made by African, American and Australian dogs from worldwide famous kennels (Cartouche, Kimani, Rex Ventors, Bearstar and Kalahari)
His mother, Terrouges Thembi is not only one of the most successful European showdogs, having titles Worldwinner 2003, European Veteran Winner 2009 titles attached to her name but she also passed hunting, obedience and Search and Rescue dogs tests.
Thembi is born in very good litter of 7 puppies, apart from Thembi 2 dogs and one bitch have been used in breeding in South Africa. Her pedigree is based on old African lines (mainly Mushana and Cartouche) that had significant impact on the look of our breed today.
The father of Kaktus Rex Ventors Ikaros comes from excellent litter of well-know Swedish kennel Rex Ventors. From 7 puppies of the I litter one dog is pet (one crown), all 6 correct puppies – 5 females and one male – are used in breeding, are conformation champions, mentality tested and clear on hips and elbows. Pedigree of Ikaros is made of many outstanding dogs. His mother, ch Bearstar Diamond Willow is imported from Australia and is Rex Ventors’ foundation bitch. She has been top show bitch in Sweden in four consecutive years. The father of Ikaros, ch Masithela Famous Akinzo by Woody was top show ridgeback in Norway in 2004 and his parents are famous USA Top RR Ch Wetu of Kalahari and top show RR in Norway Ch Ami Sariba.
Kaktus is so valuable for our breeding plans not only because of his pedigree but mainly thanks to his conformational and temperament qualities. Kaktus has strong bones, correct format, excellent angulations in front and rear which is carried over couple of generations, he has strong topline and correct substance, yet enough elegance. His size is in the middle of standard range but he still has elegant ground covering gait.
Kaktus is very balanced, quiet dog without any aggression towards people, other dogs and animals. He is easy to train, very attentive and not too stubborn, unlike many ridgebacks. He is very attached to his master, requires contact with humans and does not enjoy being left alone. His quiet and balanced temperament is his big asset however he is still active dog which makes him good working dog for many types of training. He has moderate hunting instinct but because of proper training he can be called of any prey, still he is a passionate coursing racer.
