About Frodo
Frodo is a fun-loving, food-chasing, toy-obsessed beagle mix who’s on a journey to find his forever family (preferably one with snacks). At 5 years old and 33 lbs, Frodo is the perfect combo of spunky and snuggly.
Why You’ll Love Frodo:
- Food Motivated (to say the least!) – He lives for mealtime and may try to sneak a snack or two (or ten) off the counter when you’re not looking.
- Energetic & Playful – Frodo has the heart of a pup and will happily chase toys until the sun goes down… or until you run out of toys.
- Great with Other Dogs – He loves his foster siblings and knows how to make furry friends.
- Kid-Friendly – Has met children and liked them just fine—especially if they came bearing treats.
- Clever & Trainable – Frodo’s love of food makes him a great candidate for training (just keep those treats coming!).
A Few Things to Know:
- Frodo is currently working on manners—he’s a champion counter surfer and mealtime enthusiast, so he’ll need consistent boundaries and training.
- His hound instincts are strong, especially when it comes to sniffing out snacks.
- He’ll be happiest in a home that appreciates his zest for life, sense of humor, and ever-growing toy collection.

Frodo is up to date on all his medical care, including:
✔ Health certificate from a veterinarian
✔ Up-to-date vaccinations appropriate for his age
✔ Neutered

Frodo is ready to bring laughter, love, and lots of tail wags into your life. If you’re looking for a loyal, goofy companion who’s always down to party (and by party, we mean eat and play), Frodo’s your guy!

This dog tested positive for heartworm disease before arriving to the rescue. Heartworm disease is transmitted to a dog through a bite from an infected mosquito producing a positive test in six months. OPH will treat the dog and provide two weeks of recovery time prior to adoption. Potential adopters will receive detailed information on the disease and their role in completing the recovery process from OPH’s heartworm coordinator. With monthly preventatives, the disease is completely preventable.

All adult dogs, cats, and kittens are altered prior to adoption. Puppies too young to be altered at the time of adoption must be brought to our partner vet in Ashland, VA for spay or neuter paid for by Operation Paws for Homes by 6 months of age. Adopters may choose to have the procedure done at their own vet before 6 months of age and be reimbursed the amount that the rescue would pay our partner vet in Ashland.
This dog's bio is based off the experiences of the foster and/or volunteers of OPH as well as any information that we received from the shelter or previous owner. This is very important because it means that while they may act one way in the foster’s home, you may experience something different in your home.
