From our home to yours...

Scroll down to find your favorite and what's the latest on each of the pups in our litter...and a whole lot of puppy love!

As is common, we used colored collars for identification.

But since these little lion hunters were born in the 48th state, they were also granted Texas-themed nicknames.

Well...all but numero uno and he's easy to spot.

We certainly won't be able to express in writing how lovable these little guys are or how their personalities shine, but here's a little info on each.


AVAILABLE - Originally Purple, now Green/Black Collar - "Prince"
Though your assumption might be this regal little fellow with a purple collar was named after a certain famous musician but no, he was not. Our little Texan honors Prince Carl Sol Braunfels, who was also internationally famous back in the day...way, way back in the day. If you squint your eyes, you might see a map of Germany as his blaze. This little fellow is as sweet as a boy can get. Interestingly, he has been the easiest to train. He loves to jump and run but will, happily, lie in your lap for long naps.

Though sweet and cuddly, Prince has the most strikingly masculine body type of the litter. His personality mirrors these seemingly opposite characteristics. He is watchful, sitting at the window or outside surveying his domain for long periods of time. But, after a training session, a car ride, or just crazy romping outside with his littermates, there's no doubt he'd much prefer napping cuddled right up next to you than dutifully on "place" somewhere. He'll love to lay his head right on your lap!

AVAILABLE - "Bunker Hunt"
Silver, Brown, White & (currently) Black Collar
(this one cornered the market on collar colors)
Bunker will make a run on your heart if you're not careful. He'll play like crazy one minute and fall into a heap of sweetness into your lap the next. He's already showing signs of his guarding capabilities! He, too, favors his daddy! FYI, his first collar was silver, so the name just made sense.

Bunker's specialness is not just his personality but also in his athleticism. He LOVES playing with toys and balls and, when allowed to "run" with the big dogs, can easily keep up with them. And then there's his quisical ears: it's almost if he uses his ears to communicate his thoughts. He'll often cock his head and switch his ears from one position to another as he listens to commands, people talking, or just noises in general. It's so funny and sweet!

AVAILABLE - Light Blue/Teal - Frank Hamer
Frank Hamer, AKA Frankie, is an awesome little fella. Sweet, curious, and strong as can be, he'll play and play and then, suddenly, you'll find him nestled in his kennel fast asleep (or in your lap!) Like his big brother OG, he's more on the dark cinnamon side of red wheaten.

Frankie is the true "hound" in this litter and always has been! He has the longest legs and early on shot up to be the tallest. And he is very lanky. He has a swagger to his walk that moves from head to his tail, swishing back and forth as he walks along. He is also a very calm pup. Of course, he plays hard like all Rhodies will do, without a doubt. However, he will often lazily lay around and "let" the others do the "talking" when it's time for dinner or about to be released from their crates. He's the hound that doesn't cry all the time! LOL He's just precious.
Check out below where the rest of the litter is now!

UPDATE 5/13 - Dark Blue Collar - "Padre"
Now known as "Beaux", he's found his new home in North Central Texas and will soon be out in a field somewhere as a bird flushing, hunting buddy! Right in line with the Ridgeback's heritage.
The handsome Padre was third to be born in this litter. He favors his daddy with an adorable face you'll instantly fall for. Technically, the water around the Gulf Coast island may not always be true blue, but without a doubt, Padre will continue to grow into be true-blue loyal companion. And when night time comes, he's often the first pup up on the couch for evening quiet time (cuddle time). He's a real lover who now has Frenchie pals.
UPDATE - Pink Collar - "Mary Kay" has a new home at the Texas Gulf Coast!
Figure she'll be chasing seagulls on the beach before too long.
Obviously, there was no better name associated with Texas for this sweet, 'pretty in pink' girl. She is as beautiful as can be (even without makeup). Though she'd mix it up with her brothers any time, she's low-key and lovable. Wonder how long before she's curled up for a nap beside her 2 French Bulldog housemates?

UPDATE! - Lime Collar - "Jack"
After a very long car ride, Jack's new home is in Boulder CO. He slept almost the whole way!
Cowboy Jack (Omohundro) is incredibly sweet-natured. And just like the rest of the litter, he is a cuddly bundle of love. Rough and tumble with love-boat eyes, he easily conquered his new family with love at first kiss.

We recieved a sweet note of appreciation from Jack's new family: "You did a great job crate training. He puts himself to bed when he's ready for a nap." We couldn't be more proud of Jack!

UPDATE - Black Collar - "OG" is now at home in Irving, TX.
He's got a German Shepherd pup to play with and is doing great!
Cinnamon isn't an official Ridgeback color, but if it was OG would claim it! He has a small chest blaze, was born the smallest male of the litter, but caught up with the others quickly. He is smart, lovable, and soooo handsome.

His nickname of OG has nothing to do with Texas history. It just happened naturally in the excitement of the moment! First litter & first born: a lot was going on, to say the least.

New family report: "He's doing so well by the way! He's an absolute dork and cutie. LOL, "dork'! That's hilarious: love it!

UPDATE! - Yellow Collar - "Lello" has found her new home in Austin, Texas!
She's at home with her new Boxer bestie!
Miss Amarillo (yellow) is Lello, for short. She has a big blaze on her chest. And though still the smallest in the litter, she is just delightful! But don't be fooled: this little girl can hold her own with her siblings! She did great on the ride down, sleeping all the way!

And how is she? The word is from the capital city is: "Lello is good and acting like a diva". Well, she is her mama's daughter!

UPDATE! - Red Collar - "Boerne" is at his new house in Keller TX!
He now has all kinds of new friends: a couple dogs, 2 cats, and even chickens.
Boerne (pronounced "Bernie"), was a natural in his little red collar. Fiesty and so snuggable, this pup will steal your heart away.

When he met the first of his new kitty housemates, he just sat down beside her and sniffed her. Can't believe I did't get a pic! So adorable.

UPDATE! - Orange Collar - "Angelo" has found his new home in Hebbronville, TX.
He's doing awesome as he goes back and forth from town to the ranch...and napping everywhere and in between!
With a blaze of an angel on his chest, Angelo was a given! He'll be both your cuddle buddy and your natural guardian angel. What more can you ask?

He did great on the car ride down. He giving his new family such love and care! So to say, his new family has fallen in love with him would be an understatement. This would include his new tiny friend, a Teacup Chihuahua!

UPDATE: Dark Green Collar - "Tank" has found his home in Decator, TX!!
The typical tank in Texas is often as green as can be, but that's not why Tank is called Tank. He was TWICE the size of the smallest in the litter (Lello) and had the biggest puppy feet of all! And, boy, is this pup ever a HUGE love bug. Black masked and black accent markings, he is just gorgeous.

Tank loves to run dutifully alongside his bicyle riding new owner through their neighborhood! His new owner reported back: "He's everything I've ever wanted".
