Ronaldo blocking a shot.
Ronaldo is far from retiring, in fact he has only started with his soccer career and things are looking up for him to become a star attraction.
Ronaldo, the soccer dog, started his career in a backyard filled with the smell of grilled sardines and Portuguese pork sausage.
During games of keep-away, he positioned himself in the centre and jumped to catch balls midair. Ronaldo, a Chihuahua and dachshund mix named after the Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo, was living up to his name.
After noticing their dog’s rare skills and interest in soccer, Ronaldo’s owners tried to teach him to score goals like the international superstar. However, Ronaldo was more interested in grabbing balls with his mouth, so he became a goalkeeper.
