You better make sure you have good insurance and that your agent knows the type of dog you have before you let that ridgeback loose in a dog park. They are totally protective of their owners and also very unpredictable. My sister has had professionally trained purebreds ridgebacks for the last 15 years and even her and her husband are not sure what they will do, most of the time they are fine but if they have a hint of someone threatening one of them, they will attack. Maybe yours hasn't shown that yet but it will and hopefully it won't be a child that made a wrong move near you. Another reason why I would not go to a dog park.
