We need to represent facts right the palce of origin is now called Zimbabwe. It was once called Zimbabwe-Rhodesia in 1979, Republic of Rhodesia 1970 to 1979 and since the UDI 1965 Rhodesia before it was the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland ( Zimabwe been refered to as Southern Rhodesia) since 1923. Just because the dog is commonly refered to as Rhodesia ridgeback does not mean it originate in the times of Rhodesia but just a Western name to simplify the breeding processes and its acceptability to those communities to be honest it must be called its native name if it is an African dog. The same with all other dogs just beacuse a club recognize it as such does not me thats that remember these times people where undermining native cultures. If you really intend to use names that where used in the 1922s then you should establish consistence and do the same for South Africa, Zimbabwe, Bulawayo and Plumtree all those names are recent names including Rhodesia.
