Ronnie the Rottweiler

Ronnie is really only small, but he has a mental image of himself that more resembles Rottweiler than Yorkie. Which makes him a mean customer when we are out for a walk. He tends to disengage his brain at times and I'm sure he is not all there when he sees another much larger dog and decides he wants to pick a fight with it!

It's not just big dogs that Ronnie wants to beat up. He has a natural dislike of any large vehicles, like trucks, JCBs roadsweepers, panel vans etc. When one passes us in the street, Ronnie goes into attack mode and aims his tiny body for the wheels as they thunder past. Of course he never quite gets there, as I always have him on a leash short enough so that can't happen, but I shudder to think what he would do if allowed to run free.

Another of his manias is workmen in blue work trousers. He has been known to launch himself at the odd blue trouser-clad backside in his day! And don't get him started about dustmen... If he can't kill the dustcarts, then he wants a piece of the men in green instead!

Such a lot in so small a package! That's our Ronnie, the strange dog.
