Revodana Ridgebacks

We have opened a waiting list for our next litter, due this fall, with "Mika" (Ch. Revodana's Good Night Moon). This an exciting breeding with great promise. Good things are worth waiting for!

Contact Denise at 516-509-5214.

Welcome to the Revodana web site. Our names are Denise Flaim and Fred Eder, and our passion is Rhodesian Ridgebacks. We strive to breed healthy, beautiful and functional representations of this majestic breed who are sound in body and mind.

Our philosophy is very simple: We believe that a Ridgeback is a lifetime commitment, and when you buy a Ridgeback, you are also buying a breeder's support and expertise. We prefer to meet potential puppy buyers before any planned breeding so we can get to know each other and determine if we are a "good fit."

Please enjoy your visit to our site. You'll meet some of our dogs, as well as get a deeper understanding of a breed that we think is the finest companion dog in the world, for the right owner.

Feel free to contact us at revodana@aol.com or (516) 676-3398 after 8 p.m.

Remember ... you are not just buying a dog ... you are establishing a relationship with a breeder that will last for your dog's lifetime, and beyond.
