About Frodo

Meet Frodo, a lovable guy who may seem intimidating at first, but melt your heart as soon as he realizes there's a chance to make a new friend. This energetic fellow paws through life with enthusiasm, wagging his tail whenever someone approaches. He gets along wonderfully with kids, cats, and other dogs, making him a great companion for a family. Frodo enjoys barking—it's just his way of communicating, especially if he needs a bathroom break! His favorite pastimes include eating, zooming around the yard, and snuggling up close with his favorite humans. However, Frodo doesn't manage well when left alone for long periods. He tends to "redecorate" the house, so some crate training would benefit him, along with a family who is home more often.
