You did what?

Well he was a Ridgeback, in a sense.

Really, a black and white Ridgeback. Didn’t think such a thing existed.

Well not really but he has got a ridge.

I guess so. Where did you find him?

In the industrial sites. He just wandered into the premises where I was buying some overalls and stuff.

Was he hungry?

Not as much as I thought he’d be.

Friendly?

No, not really. Very cautious. He came within a metre or so but wouldn’t take from my hand.

We Ridgebacks are bred to be cautious of strangers. What did you do?

Well the rescue organisations won’t come out unless they know the dog will still be around when they get there so I went as asked around if he was known. It seems that he does hang around that area quite a lot. He didn’t stay long and was walking out when I got back to the car.

He needs a home.

There are lots like him around. Just getting  by and hoping for better.

Sounds like he’s a typical Zimbabwean.
