My name is Tusani Ani Johnie W. They call me “Wolki”. I am the son of Pearl which is “Wadilulu” in Swahili. I am born in Slovakia and there they say “Volki”. I understand both Slovakian and Swedish, but sometimes I wonder if they really mean what they say to me. First when I was 7 months old, my mummy and daddy, whom I love very much, were allowed to take me home to Sweden. I have had a wonderful childhood with my mother Perl, my sister Vivi, one more mother Puppet and uncle Bongo. A really nice Ridgeback family. My breeder Monika Tusanova is the best extra mother on the earth. She loves me and she misses me so much. It was fantastic that my mummy fond Monika, because they have got a very nice contact with each other. Monika knows so much about us Ridgebacks, she is President of the Slovakian Rhodesian Ridgeback Club, judge and writer. You see I com from the first puppies born in the Tusani Kennel, and we were born the day of Monika’s 40 years birthday. What a lovely present we have been to her.

My mummy was astonished with my mother Pearl, she is really beautiful. She is Australian. She is used to show herself on dog exhibitions, where she is very successful winner. My father Bango is an Italian and American winner, a handsome boy. I have very successful parents. But most of all I have got from them a very lovely temperament. I like everything and everybody, both folks and children and dogs and food. I really appreciate when my mummy cuddles with me, but it’s a pity that she doesn’t allow me to play rough with her. I am allowed to sleep in her bed with one of the cats. The other two, are afraid of me, can you imagine? And the hens are too. When I want to play with them, they run to their home. I can do many things, really, but to be honest, I do it because I always get something good to eat, like candy and meatballs and sausage and cheese and Swedish liver pudding, or ham, or pancakes, Oh!...
