JUBA LEE Ridgebacks started out with the meeting of our first Ridgeback back in 1980.  I immediately fell in love with the breed and knew this was the dog for me. My first Ridgeback was born in 1983 and JUBA LEE came out of a combination of these first lines:  Calico Ridge, SA Import Mpani, Kalahari and Kwetu.  I lived on a ranch and the dogs became not only our companions, but working dogs as well.  Our dogs could herd cattle, guard the goats, work the shoots during branding and could go retrieve dove and quail during hunting season.  We believed in the all around dog.  I took those working lines and bred with Top Conformation dogs and fused the two into what is JUBA LEE today.  Good minds, sound bodies and the temperament for an excellent companion and family dog.  We have achieved a lot with our dogs and are very proud to be the # 1 RRCUS Breeder for 4 years, we have produced three  Top 10 dogs in Conformation, # 1 in Obedience and # 3 in Lure Coursing.  It has become more than just a ‘dog show’ for me.  I have met my best friends and I’ve enjoyed the competition.    I have thoroughly enjoyed the bond, the love and the closeness that is shared with my dogs.   We travel together and enjoy the time we spend competing all over the countryside from East to West Coast.

We do stress the importance of Health and Genetics.  We health screen our dogs and they are certified with OFA and MSU.  We do follow RRCUS Code of Ethics and we have been members in good standing for 20 years (since 1987).   I have been a member and on the Board of RTI (Ridgeback Trust Inc) and RRCUS Ridgeback Rescue.  I am also on the Education and Mentor Committees for RRCUS.  I am also President of our local Ridgeback Club, TVRRCOT.

JUBA LEE puppies are raised in my home, not out in a kennel.  They learn all about the outdoors, are free to use a doggie door and are socialized.  We strongly encourage puppy social and obedience classes.  Breeding and producing the best all around Ridgeback is a lifelong commitment.  Please visit, read and check out our dogs.  Any questions?  Shoot us an email and I’ll be happy to get back with you.  - Kerry Williams
