Versorging
Temperament
Independent, loyal and protective, it is affectionate with family and wary of strangers. It is athletic and quick, with a high prey drive.
Oefening
It needs an hour or more daily of exercise, including running in a secure area; lure coursing and agility are good outlets.
Versorging
The very short coat needs only a weekly brush and sheds lightly.
Opleiding
It is intelligent but strong-willed and sensitive; patient, consistent, reward-based training and early socialisation are essential.
Gesondheid
Dermoid sinus, a skin defect along the spine, occurs in the breed and puppies should be checked for it; hip and elbow dysplasia are also screened. Ask the breeder for hip and elbow results and dermoid sinus checks.

Oor die ras
The Thai Ridgeback has lived for centuries in eastern Thailand, where it hunted, guarded homes and escorted carts, largely isolated from other breeds. It became better known outside Thailand from the late twentieth century and was fully recognised by the FCI in 2003.
It is an athletic, intelligent and strong-willed dog. With its family it is loyal and affectionate, but it is naturally suspicious of strangers and protective. It has a strong prey drive and can jump high fences. It needs a confident, experienced owner who offers good socialisation, consistent structure and plenty of exercise.
Het jy geweet?
The Thai Ridgeback is one of only a few breeds with a ridge of hair growing against the rest of the coat along its back.
