More about Ronnie

Meet Ronnie, a sweet and affectionate little chap with plenty of character.

Ronnie is a Dachshund x Jack Russell Terrier who enjoys attention, lap time, toys, and games of fetch. True to his breed mix, he can be vocal at times, particularly when first seeing other dogs on lead or hearing unfamiliar noises, but he usually recovers quickly and shows his friendly, curious side.

Ronnie was gifted into us after he began to show signs that he was uncomfortable with some close household interactions around his previous owners child. He is therefore looking for owners with some previous dog experience who can give him clear boundaries, space when needed, and a calm, predictable home.

Ronnie has shown some lovely sociability with other dogs when able to meet quickly but has shown some vocal, frustrated & defensive behaviour onlead and new owners will need to be prepared to socialise him constructively & continue training in this area. . He could suit a home with sensible older teenagers aged 16+ who can respect his space and follow his training and handling guidance.

Ronnie does not require a private garden, but he will need access to quieter walking routes and green spaces where his owners can continue his training, particularly around recall and calm behaviour around other dogs.
