HELLO & WELCOME

My name is Alyson Damery-Ouellette with Mandela's Amandla Ridgebackz.

In 2002 we moved from British Columbia, Canada and located to SW Florida.

I have completed my Veterinary Assistant and Veterinary Technician certifications
And have a few years of schooling/studying towards my DVM.

I have owned, bred and handled our quality ridgebackz since 1983 with wonderful success. 
Producing beautiful healthy pups for show/breeding & pets.

In Canada I started showing dogs at a very early age as a junior handler.
Took a small break to attend schooling at St. Mary’s University .  Then to get married and start a family.
But in the early 80’s started up again as an all breed handler in the in both Canada and the US.
I still enjoy my wonderful hobby of Showing/handling, training all breeds & my ridgebackz

My goals with my breedings are to meet and/or exceed the AKC Ridgeback Standard
for looks, temperament, performance and character

I was one of the first ridgeback enthusiasts that started up and was voted in as 
the 2006 President of the Sunshine State Rhodesian Ridgeback Club here in Florida, (SSRRC).
I was also on the 2007 Board of Directors and Ethics Committee.
In 2008 I added to my duties the SSRRC Webmaster and continued on the Ethics Committee.

My Mandela’s Amandla gang are a beautiful deep red wheaten.
Within the AKC stated Ridgeback standard size.  Lovely flowing movement.
Solid bone with the wider head shape, strong in structure with a very
Regal appearance and expressions. Excellent temperaments & personalities

They have or do participate in Confirmation, Luring, and Hunting Instinct Testing.
Some in Agility & Obedience.
Have passed their CGC’s (Canine Good Citizen) and Therapy dog certifications.

Some may have more then one Championship title threw other organized Kennel Clubs.
I prefer to show all my ridgebackz in AKC Bred By Exhibitor classes & Breeders Sweeps.
I was honored when eligible to participate in the AKC Eukanuba Dog Shows.
