I'm noticing here what I've seen a lot of with my own pair of Ridgies when they encounter other breeds. They've been bred for such an unusual task (going out alone 'hunting' lions and play-fighting them to an exhausted standstill) that RRs seem to be on a different wavelength re playing. They're expert at reading their own very specific body language but other breeds don't speak it. So…mismatch; RRs waiting for other breeds to 'get it'. RR + RR looks right but RR + breed X = start/?/stop/? etc
What I mean is, when it comes to chasing, running, rolling about etc., there's not much noticeable difference and fun is had by all, especially as the Ridgies will want to play with the other breeds (though almost all smaller breeds find our ridgies' rough, athletic friendliness overwhelming and keep their distance. But ridgies by themselves get up/down/sideways to such weird posturings, bunnyhops, moaning, face-to-face rear-ups, 'leg-grabs/holds' etc more like a wrestling match than dog play…
Those ridgies need a diet!!
