Frodo is an energetic guy, wonderful with kids, cats, and other dogs. He has a big bark, which he loves to use, especially when he's trying to tell you he needs to go potty! Frodo's favorite activities include eating, running around, and curling up with his favorite humans. He doesn't cope well with being left alone for long stretches, as he tends to get a bit creative with "redecorating" the house.
