Watchful Roux

Roux still hasn't really exhibited all the watchful/protective traits people told us to expect with a Ridgeback. Instead of looking like a force to contend with, she comes off as more of an overly exuberant pal to just about everyone. However, she has recently taken up the hobby of guarding the front door. She's still not a very threatening entity, but she feels like she's doing her guard dog duty if she spends at least 5 minutes a day standing watch.

My first ever dog was a Rhodesian Ridgeback. I'm not sure that she was ever much of a guard dog, but she was THE most loyal dog ever.

Beautiful picture Claire!!

So far Rowan has "saved" me from a fire hydrant, hanging flower basket, and the neighbors cat :)
