having owned many ridgebacks along with  foxhounds foxterriers Australian staghounds whippets and jack russells my main game being foxes and feral pigs my most favourite hunting trios have been one ridgeback with two staghounds they complement one another one a hunt the righeback being strong wind scenters but resonably close hunters ideal when you on foot. they do lack a turn of speed although a mile of endurance this is where the stag hounds come in as they read the ridgeback and when fox or pig explode from their seat the stags make very short races. If I could have added the rigebacks abilities into a greyhound I certainly would have done it. but ive always been a pack hunter and always enjoyed watching what each dog brings to the hunt.
