About Nye (KNEE-eh)
Nye (Knee-uh) is a bit of a Diva :) She lives with my sister, Rachael, only about a mile and a half down the road. We've had 14 Ridgeback ladies live with us over the last couple of decades. Nye is a very typical queen... she loves to antagonize her mother, Maggie... and was very gentile and courteous with her granny Anora as a young puppy. She's a lovely girl that has always been great with visitors.
