Denise Flaim

Denise is a professional journalist (and former Newsday staff writer and columnist) who is lucky enough to write about the thing that she loves -- dogs! She's also fortunate to have a husband and kids who enthusiastically take part in her "dog life"!

In 2015, Denise founded Revodana Publishing, which focuses on dogs books written by experts and fanciers with a deep and time-forged understanding of their subject matter. She runs Ridgeback Central (www.ridgebackcentral.com), which offers blog posts and questions-and-answers of interest to Ridgeback owners. And she is the publisher of Modern Molosser (www.ModernMolosser.com), a digital magazine and archive for Mastiffs, Dogues and Bullmastiffs, among others, as well the editor-at-large for Sighthound Review (www.SighthoundReview.com).


Denise is a member in good standing of the Rhodesian Ridgeback Club of the United States (www.RRCUS.org) and the Western Hound Association of Southern California, and is a board member of the Morris & Essex Kennel Club (www.morrisandessexkennelclub.org).


The long-time Ridgeback breed columnist for the AKC Gazette, she is the past chair and historian of the RRCUS Health & Genetics Committee, and now serves as a member of the Rhodesian Ridgeback World Congress Health Committee (www.worldridgebackhealth.org).


In addition to her publishing company, Denise contributes frequently to Dog News and the Whole Dog Journal.

 

She is a member of the World Dog Press Association and the Alliance of Purebred Dog Writers (www.purebreddogwriters.org).
