After many years of dedication, I am proud to introduce
Finlay — Kengali’s A Legend Will Rise!
And rise she did!! Finlay has grown up by my side, never more than an arm’s length away, and she embodies everything I envision in a ridgeback: strong yet elegant, powerful yet unmistakably feminine. Her effortless movement, balanced reach and drive, and soulful expression make her unforgettable.
Finlay may not be everyone’s style, but there’s no denying she is a ridgeback through and through. Her outline, her presence, and that knowing gaze capture the essence of the breed I’ve worked so long to refine. Earning Opposite Sex at our National Specialty in 2025 with a dog I have spent years dreaming of and shaping was an indescribable joy, one that will remain with me forever!
The many sides of Finlay!
