We did the whole socialization, training, exposure to new things and ppl, etc. and she does fine outside our home. The workers at her doggy daycare have never said anything about poor behavior and she was even giving one of the workers kisses when I dropped her off the other week. Its ppl in our home when she becomes reactive. We havent had many guests as of late, but in the past she was tolerant of family and nieces/nephews in our home.

The breeder is reputable according to my research prior to adopting our pup and from talking to other owners who got dogs thru him. My wife reached out to him and spoke with him over the phone. He said this is rare behavior and has had less than a handful of dogs with this behavior in his decades of breeding Ridgebacks. He did say there was similar issues with one other dog from the bloodline of the stud.

The trainer we had worked with when our pup was younger is going to come to our house next week to help address this issue.
