About Us

We are a small family orientated kennel located in the Scenic Rim. We aim to breed for sound temperament, athleticism, well adjusted dogs who are part of our family. All breeding dogs are health tested, DNA profiled and Hip and Elbow scored.

Our love of dogs began in childhood. Liz regularly participated in dog shows with her parents who successfully bred Wire Haired Fox Terriers and West Highland White Terriers. Our love of Rhodesian Ridgebacks began in 2018. Our first ridgeback, Harper, joined the family in 2018 who was followed by a second, Harry, in 2020. This re-ignited Liz’s passion for showing dogs and quickly became the soon to be retirement interest, along with playing golf of course. The joyous memories of childhood, friendships, adventures and love of family is how we came about our name of Lovat Pride. Lovat was the prefix name that belonged to Liz’s parents so we are proud to continue this tradition.

Our home is set on 5 acres where our dogs are exposed to native wildlife and share their home with children, cats, other dogs and horses. They love to run and chase each other which has led us to the sport of Lure Coursing.

Puppies are occasionally available to caring and loving furever homes. We aim to match puppies to families individual needs. Full support is provided.

All enquiries welcome for pet or show homes.
