About Ronnie

Ronnie is part of the Schitts Creek litter, born to resilient mama Moira, a gentle Anatolian shepherd mix who has shown nothing but sweetness despite a tough start. Ronnie, just a couple of months old, stands out among her 13 siblings for being both clever and incredibly loving. She’s that rare puppy whose happiness is always visible—expect enthusiastic wiggles and plenty of kisses every day. After playtime and a few joyful zoomies around the yard, Ronnie loves nothing better than curling up with her people, soaking in quiet affection. Now in a foster home with both dogs and cats, she’s proving great with everyone she meets. Ronnie is well on her way to becoming a big dog like her mom—likely large and athletic as she grows—but she already shows a gentle, snuggly side that makes her a joy to be around.
