It is a polygenic trait, that is affected by environmental factors in the production of the final phenotype. It can be found in many animals and occasionally in humans, but is most commonly associated with dogs, and is common in many dog breeds, particularly the larger breeds.

Hypothyroidisim - Hypothyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland does not make enough thyroid hormone. Early symptoms: Being more sensitive to cold; Constipation; Depression; Fatigue or feeling slowed down.

Elbow Dysplasia - Elbow dysplasia is a condition involving multiple developmental abnormalities of the elbow-joint in the dog, specifically the growth of cartilage or the structures surrounding it. These abnormalities, known as 'primary lesions', give rise to osteoarthritic processes.

The Rhodesian Ridgeback occasionally has problems with the following health conditions:

Deafness - Deafness is the inability to hear in either one or both ears.

Dermoid Sinus - Dermoid Sinus is the tubular indentation leading from the skin along the midline of the back sometimes extending into the spinal canal.
