The Southern Rhodesian Ridgeback Association, established 1987.
 
The welfare of this noble breed, with all that implies, the encouragement of others to be responsible, and to make owning a Rhodesian Ridgeback a truly enjoyable experience was the criteria for the Club.
    The seeds of this idea were sown in April 1987 when a group of enthusiasts sat round a table in Oxford and worked out aims, rules and regulations. An educated specialist judging list together with co-opting of interested allrounders and the plan to educate through Seminars and social events was added to the formula.
    This Club "baby" grew, carefully tended and nurtured by a hard working committee and with the support and wise counsel of those very long established in our breed; Mrs Rose Baily, Mrs Margaret Southall,
Mrs Wyn Hayes and Mesdames Thornton and Sturdy.
    An extremely well attended Inaugural Meeting took place in June 1987 with a first Seminar in November ´87 only to be followed by Seminar number two in March ´88 and the production of Magazine Edition 1.
