Paradigm Rhodesian Ridgebacks

Our dogs are family members and live in the house with us . . .

Our Goal

To provide wonderful healthy companions who will bring joy to your household;

To maintain contact with each puppy we bring in to the world;

To make a difference -- not only in the ridgeback world -- but in others' lives;

To provide opportunities for friendship, mentoring and life-long support. 

Who We Are

We are Mike & Martha Munchhof and live in Connecticut with our three "girls", Ella (the matriarch), Dinah (the princess) and Eva (the people lover).

We are not a kennel and are not high volume breeders.  We, generally, only breed one litter every couple years.  Our girls live in the house with us, as cherished members of our family.

While we are committed to showing our dogs to their AKC championship, the vast majority of our time is spent hiking and doing other outdoor activities with our dogs.  Our dogs love to hike and go places with us.

We are members of the Rhodesian Ridgeback Club of the United States (RRCUS), as well as members of the New England Rhodesian Ridgeback Club.

Because we adhere to the health testing required by RRCUS and have successfully bred many conformation champions, as well as other performance titled dogs, we were invited and accepted in to the American Kennel Club Breeder of Merit program.
