Woody (now called Frodo) is fostered in Sioux City, Iowa.
Hello potential adopters! Drum roll please...introducing the handsomest, smartest, aussome boy- Frodo! Just like the character in "Lord of the Rings" this aussie hobbit is happiest living with his family and his pure, incorruptible heart sets him apart.
Frodo is a standard size Black Tri with a bobtail. He is a great age (between 2-3 years old) and weighs about 38 lbs. Frodo lived in apartment with 2 larger dogs, and it wasn't an ideal situation to meet his needs. He is a young boy with typical aussie energy. His current foster home has a fenced yard (Need) where he plays with his foster brother. While they get along and enjoy playing together Frodo would be fine being an only dog. He loves humans better!
Frodo is house trained and crate trained. He is very smart and a quick learner! Frodo knows 'sit', 'shake', 'off', and 'kennel'. He is eager to please and loves food. He has good leash walking manners and generally doesn't pull. He is an alert barker letting you know about suspicious things. Frodo can be a bit reserved when meeting new people or dogs, but yummy treats are helping with this! He does warm up to women quicker than men. He loves apples, tomatoes, peppers, & broccoli!
Frodo lives with a resident cat who is used to dogs. He has joined his foster brother in chasing the cat, so a home with a cat would just depend on the cat. He can get a little enthusiastic while playing so adults or older children would be better.
Frodo would love a family on the active side. He loves car rides and behaves well in public, long sniff walks, playing and running around in the yard, snuggles, belly rubs, and hanging out with his family. In true aussie fashion he is a Velcro shadow who will follow you everywhere...including the bathroom!! He would love a spot with you in the bed, but will sleep in his crate! Are you interested in this cutie pie?
Frodo is neutered, microcipped, up to date on all vaccinations, and receiving monthly prevention for fleas, ticks and heartworm prevention. Proof of heartworm prevention for any current or previous pets is required to adopt from our organization. For more information on our adoption process, please visit our website at www.MidwestAustralianShepherdRescue.org.
NOTE: All of our dogs live in foster homes with volunteers so we need an approved application on file to set up a meet with a dog you might have an interest in. Please visit our website for more information on our adoption process, our adoption fees and a link to our adoption application. We pride ourselves on matches that work for both the dog and your family. MASR is here for your support, advice and safety net for our dogs for the remainder of their lives. www.MidwestAustralianShepherdRescue.org
