IHA Geneva: Exc. 2 RCAC for African Dream Ashoka of Muna ya Kusini


Ashoka successful in the show ring: we are totally thrilled about her.

YAW ADYUBA ROYALTY NEHANDA AFTER A HORROR TRIP FINALLY BACK TO SWITZERLAND

As ewrywhere in the world, unfortunately we have also in the Ridgeback community producers who are responsible for a bad reputation against our race and are not good for the dogs and only have in mind to do a lot of money with the disadventage for the dogs. We did made terrible experience with:

YAW ADYUBA RHOSESIAN RIDGEBACKS

MARTEN BAASARON, MARIJE DE BRUIJN, EMMEN, NL

That's why we have decided to make our story public to draw hope from this opportunity that future, innocent potential puppy buyer as well as stud dog owners could be warned to avoid similar pain. The imagination that further people and dogs will be affected from them is insufferable for us . At least two planned litters where already canceled by this outing.

End of 2010 we buyed the female Yaw Adyuba Royalty Nehanda from Marten Baasaron and Marije de Bruijn. Unfortunately our own bitch was very ill and it did not work between both females. Nehanda, at that time 6 months old, did attack our female who was very ill and also did hurd our five years old son. Outstanding is that also other siblings from Nehanda from the same litter, not all could be sociallized with other dogs and bites them (mainly females). In that difficult situation we did get in touch with our breeder. It was planned that they wanted to visit us in Switzerland. When they did arrive in the late afternoon, they told us a silly story, that they have to drive back the next morning baucause of their horse who was ill. The next morning they took us under pressure one hour with talking and talking and talking..., that it would be best to give them Nehanda back (our biggest fault!). They would make a champion of her and they have use for her in their breeding program. Baasaron/de Bruijn took andventage from this emergency situation and putted Nehanda in the car and disappeared. We were not prepared at all to give them Nehanda back and that they only came to us to take Nehanda with them. Their statement was: if we kept on puppy from this litter it was Nehanda. In a hurry we agreed by a hand notice, that we will settle a contract taking Nehanda back with a trial period for thinking about, when they were back in Holland. Back in the Netherlands they wanted not anymore sign this contract. There was also written, that they have not the right to rehome Nehanda to somewhere else. So they did break our agreement from the beginning. We did not get back from them the buy price for Nehanda and we also did not received another puppy which we did not wanted anymore from them under that conditions. These people did only lie, swindle and stealing us, or let's say they took the opportunity for a unsjustified enrichment. The financial aspect is not for our interest at all, the only loser in that story was our poor Nehanda.

On their homepage www.ridgebackeurope.com it's usual that their dogs disapear regulary and did no more show up when they are useless for them (K.O, Iingwe), as well as our Nehanda. Both of them were bored with Nehanda, Nehanda gets hitting was the most of the time in a cage and they were not able to handle her. Nehanda was rehomed due to their breeders six times! 1st station: from the breeder to us (5 months), 2nd station: from us back to the breeder (6 months), 3rd station: from the breeder to a woman (1 month), 4th station: to a family with children (18 months), 5th station: from the family with children to a couple with one child (2 months), 6th station: back to us. At the 4th station Baasaron/de Bruijn told them that have to pay only Euro 300.00 for the dog, but they wanted her for one litter. So Baasaron/De Bruin get paid twice for the same dog. When problems with Nehanda came up at that family, Marten Baasaron and Marije de Bruijn wanted her back when they were aware that she is not sterilized, doing a litter and put her after to sleep. Happily that did not happen because the family from the 4th station did not gave them Nehanda back because they were afraid that Nehanda would have been in danger. They also did not tell to Marten Baasaron and Marije de Bruijn the new domicile of Nehanda. Kris But always helped Nehanda when she was in rescue to protect her. As well when she and her life partner picked her up from the last station and braught Nehanda back to us in Switzerland. When Kris But took over Nehanda, she was in a very bad condition (fur, allergies...) and also affected by the circumstance that the most of the time Nehanda was chained on a short leash outside and with not enough movement. On the homepage www.ridgebackeurope.com is written "we feel responsible for every puppy for life" Just a farce... Some months later we got informed that Nehanda is no more living with them. We called Marten Baasaron and he was telling us only thirty things on the phone about us and that he was not willing to tell us, where Nehanda is and that he will not pay the money back to us. The worst for us was, that we did not know for 2 years where Nehanda is and how she is doing.

Yaw Adyuba Rhodesian Ridgebacks, Marten Baasaron, Marije de Bruijn, Emmen NL were kicked out from the official Rhodesian Ridgeback Club Netherlands (RRCN) because they gave negative cause for complaint. They did not respect the breeding code of conduct etc. (matings with halfsiblings etc.) but also because they did deal with many puppy owners in a very unappropriate manner (Nehanda case etc.). They confirm on their homepage that they breed according to the breed regulations from the Netherlands Rhodesian Ridgeback Club (NRRV). WARNING: this club has nothing to do with the official and serious RRCN. The NRRV is a own club who is founded by Baasaron/de Bruijn themselfs, so their members (some of them were also suspended from the RRCN) were no more controlled by the RRCN.

Nehanda had to suffer a lot in her short life. The breeding conditions from Marten Baasaron and Marije de Bruijn were horrible and not much better today. It was winter and the puppies had to live in a very small place in a extension of a caravan in the dirt (picture available). Conditions where the dogs have to stay most of the time in a cage (is confirmed by Marten Baasaron in written), undernourished dogs (like Mr. Brown from Cheryl Jacobs), hitting of dogs are general, and can be confirmed by other people (Cheryl Jacobs/Kris But etc.). One time he was hitting Nehanda against a cement wall. The oldest bitch in the pack (Nehanda's mother) has to drawing up by her high age the 5th time a litter.

This very sad story from Nehanda is true and can be confirmed by different people. Many thanks goes to Cheryl Jacobs (Gondwana Ridgebaks SA) who gets in contact with us to help in finding our dog, as well as to Kris But who did rescue Nehanda by spectacular actions and braught us Nehanda finally back to us in Switzerland. Nehanda will be safe now for her life especially against Marten Baasaron and Marije de Bruijn.

What a blessing, that we still have on that earth some people like Kris But and her life partner who did not avoid any efforts to save our poor little girl Nehanda. About that we just want to show our fully respect!

We confirm herewith that we will take the responsibility for Nehanda for a lifetime and that we will make everything happen for her, that she has a good life, even if we can not have her at our home because she still not tolerates other dogs in her pack. We would and could never put the life of our pack in danger. That's the reason because we as responsible breeders are more and more requested to only breed with dogs who have an absolutely intact character (this requires a check of the dogs before the mating will be done). This is not releant for dog shows but for the real life it's essential! We have the guarantee, to have for the whole life for Nehanda personal access to her and that make us very happy.

African Dream Puppy Meeting

Am 24. November 2012 fand das Welpentreffen des African Dream Wurfs statt. Was einst klein und von Mama Hidaya abhänging war, gedeiht und wächst zu richtigen Ridgebacks heran. Wir verbrachten einen gemütlichen Nachmittag mit Spaziergang wo sich die Geschwister so richtig austoben konnten, mit anschliessendem Fondue und Uebergabe der Pedigrees, Fotobücher und Pokale der Welpen, welche in Lausanne ausgestellt wurden. Ja sogar der Samichlaus erschien gleich dreifach: Bantu, Hidaya und Ashoka gaben sich die Ehre in rot/weiss... In diesem Sinne wünschen wir schöne Weihnachten und ein Gutes Neues Jahr! Herzlichst Euer Kennel of Muna ya Kusini

Wonderful show results from the African Dream litter on the IHA Lausannne

Was für ein Ausstellungs-Wochenende!

Fünf unserer Nachzuchten haben ihr Bestes gegeben und sich im Show-Ring bereits wie Profis präsentiert und dies bei Konkurrenz die doch schon einiges grösser waren: African Dream Adimu  of Muna ya Kusini: VV1 Welpensieger
African Dream Ayubu  of Muna ya Kusini: VV1, V4
African Dream Abuya  of Muna ya Kusini: VV2
African Dream Ashura of Muna ya Kusini: VV4, VV4
African Dream Ashoka of Muna ya Kusini: VV2, VV3 Einer der Berichte:
(alle anderen unter Nachzucht zu finden - auf Bild klicken) "Very confident 3 month old baby, lovely head and expression, good reach of neck and layback of shoulder, correct ridge, strong hindquarters, showed and moved extremly well. Very nice puppy".

Und noch mal Good News:
bei Ashoka und Ashura sind alle Zahnanlagen vorhanden und es wird somit ein vollzahniges Scherengebiss erwartet! Wir haben beide Mädchen geröngt und es zeigt einmal mehr, dass es sich auszahlt, nur mit Elterntieren zu züchten, welche selbst vollzahnig sind!

The African Dream litter starts into week 11

Dürfen wir vorstellen, unsere beiden Top Shots bei den Mädels: African Dream ASHOKA of Muna ya Kusini (links) African Dream ASHURA of Muna ya Kusini (rechts) Töchter von Hidaya v.d.

Start into the tenth week of the African Dream Litter

Ja, bald ist es soweit und die einzelnen Repräsentanten des African Dream Wurfs wandern in die weiter Welt hinaus. Doch bevor es soweit ist, haben wir noch einiges vor. Soweit soviel: die tierärztliche Untersuchung chippen/impfen hat ergeben, dass alle 10 Welpen kerngesund sind und auch die Wurfkontrolle des RRCS nichts anderes bestätigt, als das was wir schon wussten, nämlich, dass wir von zehn - neun fehlerfreie Welpen haben, was aus züchterischer Sicht ein fantastisches Ergebnis ist! Jetzt steht uns natürlich noch der Ausflug mit dem Auto bevor und Abschied zu nehmen von der Zuchtstätte"of Muna ya Kusini". Selbstverständliche wird jeder Welpe im Inland zu den neuen Eigentümern gebracht,diejenigen im Ausland werden später besucht werden. Ganz stolz sind wir natürlich, dass sage und schreibe
50 % dieses fantastischen Wurfs an der Internationalen Hundeaustellung in Lausanne Ende Oktober 2012 gezeigt werden.

The African Dream litter starts into week 9

Der African Dream Wurf schliesst seinen Kreis indem auch noch die Personen-Gruppen geprägt wurden. Mit Begeisterung dürfen wir mitteilen, dass alle Welpen sich hervorragend präsentiert haben und es erfüllt uns Züchter auch ein wenig mit Stolz, dass wir im 2012 einen der besten Würfe im RRCS gezüchtet haben. Einspezieller Dank geht hier verdient an "Grandma" Anabel Gomez Navarro, angehende RR Richterin, welche die Kombination der Elterntiere ausgesucht hat und mit ihrem guten Gespür auch mit uns zusammen die Zuteilung der Welpen gemacht hat. Ein ganz fantastisches Mädchen aus diesem Wurf wird bei uns bleiben, nämlich "African Dream ASHOKA of Muna ya Kusini. Mehr zu unserer Herrscherin - Königin (Bedeutung von Ashoka) werden in Kürze folgen. Wie immer findet ihr fast täglich neue Bilder unter der Rubrik: Welpen/African Dream Wurf/Bilder 9. Woche

Start in into the eight week of the African Dream Litter

Der African Dream Wurf macht nun gewaltige Fortschritte, nicht nur dass sie jetzt ransant von Tag zu Tagwachsen, sondern sie fordern einem jetzt jeden Tag mehr. Wir haben angefangen, die Welpen sanft akustisch wie auch optisch wie an einer Zuchtzulassungsprüfung zu prägen, das Verhalten zu beobachten, ja sogar das Wasser macht ihnen einen höllen Spass. Wir denken, sie können es kaum erwarten, endlich einen Ausflug zu machen. Wie immer findet ihr fast täglich neue Bilder unter der Rubrik: Welpen/African Dream Wurf/Bilder 8. Woche

The African Dream litter starts into week 7

Der African Dream Wurf entwickelt sich langsam zu richtigen Beauties und Persönlichkeiten. Mittlerweile haben die Rüeden 5 Kg Marke und die Hündinnen die 4 Kg Grenze überschritten und sie zeigen einem schon ganz deutlich ihre unterschiedlichen Temperamente. Nichts ist mehr sicher vor ihnen, auch Mama Hidaya macht ihnen die Grenzen nun sehr deutlich. Jetzt ist genaues Augenmerk des Züchters gefragt, welcher die neuen Welpen-Eltern berät und ihnen den richtigen Hund, welcher zum entsprechenden Individuum passt vermitteln kann. Schön sind sie sowieso alle...

Start in into the sixth week of the African Dream Litter

Nachdem die Welpen nun bereits mit vielen Menschen vertraut wurden, ist nun die Zeit angebrochen, wo wir anfangen, die Welpen optisch und akustisch zu prägen sodass sie möglichst früh mit möglichen alltäglichen Situationen vertraut werden. Es ist eine wahre Freude zu sehen, wie sie bereits jetzt unerschrocken und selbtsicher täglich Neues ausprobieren. Dies zeigt uns einmal mehr, wie richtig die Wahl der beiden Elterntiere:Int. Ch. Areswuma Vividjo Makini aka Misha & Hidaya van de Eyssel Hoeve for Muna ya Kusini war.

The African Dream litter starts into week 4

Der African Dream Wurf ist mobil geworden. Just zu Beginn der 4. Woche gehen alle Welpen ohne Hilfe selbständig aus der Wurfbox und laufen im Ganzen Wintergarten herum. Es dauert wohl nicht mehr lange, bis sie sich in den Garten wagen. Ab Tag 22 versuchen wir zuzufüttern, das wird wohl ein Spass werden...

Start in the third week from the African Dream Litter

Nachdem nun alle die Augen offen haben, auch Red Girl und Purple Girl folgt gleich die nächste Sensation im Leben der noch kleinen Midaya's: heute wurde das erste Mal entwurmt, die Begeisterung dabei hielt sich allerdings in Grenzen. Einige schüttelten nur den Kopf, nach dem Motto: was ihr Menschen euch alles einfallen lässt...

The African Dream litter starts into week 2

Die erste Woche haben wir geschafft und sind putzmunter!
Wie erwartet haben wir am 10. Lebenstag bereits das Gewicht verdoppelt. Krallen wurden auch schon geschnitten und Mama putzt und füttert uns rund um die Uhr. Wir fühlen uns sehr wohl und geniessen einfach die Zweisamkeit.

Grandma Anabel

Was für eine Ueberraschung... Eigentlich nicht, als es kritisch wurde und es darum ging die bestmögliche Entscheidung für Hidaya ihre Nachzuchthündin zu treffen, war Anabel einfach da und half mit, die kleinen Midaya's ins Leben zu führen. Wir sind ihr sehr dankbar und danken ihr herzlich für all ihre Hilfe und Aufopferung, welche sie uns zukommen liess. Herzlichen Dank auch an Bukuru, dem Vater von Hidaya, Usoni, Chidima, Halbschwester von Hidaya und Halbbruder Kerubo welche Anabel soviel entbehren mussten.

Our African Dream came true!

With pleasure we can announce that we we plan to drive to Holland with Hidaya in March 2011 for the mating. As stud dog and father of our first litter we have chosen the beautiful male with a very nice character: Int. Ch. Aresvuma Vividjo Makini "Misha". We had the opportunity to check his perfect qualities directly in Holland. Of course not only his beauty but also his secure character and his sovereignty, which is absolutely essential for us to only use top representatives in the breed, even if we have to drive 1600 km for that. Read more under our rubric " puppy plans" and www.madzinza.nl. Misha is a typical exponent of a ridgeback male with his nice head, furthermore he has substance and a very nice color. His ancestors are from the famous breeds: Aresvuma and Vizara. Now we hope that the mating will be succesful and we will let you know soon.
