My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Coby, a.k.a. Roadblock, is a purebred Rhodesian Ridgeback with all the typical traits; loyal, intelligent, sensitive, mischievous, strong-willed, etc...  He gets along with dogs of all sizes after a slow introduction, and loves having a playmate!  He's house trained, crate trained, loves going for walks, and wants to be close to his people as much as possible.  

Coby has a neurological disorder causing an uncoordinated gait and clumsiness, but this doesn't prevent him from doing normal activities.  Smooth surfaces (like tile floors) make walking more challenging at times and he may fall occasionally, but he does not require any assistance.

Coby is looking for a special family to overlook his handicap and love him for the special guy that he is!  Since he does need guidance for some activities, he will require an experienced owner who is capable and willing to continue his training.  In return, Coby will love you deeply and guard your home from all the dangers lurking about outside!
