Frodo

Frodo is the most delightful dog, and he has settled into home life quickly. He particularly enjoys a chat and loves being fussed over, so if you’re looking for a hound who appreciates being told how handsome and special he is, Frodo is ready to listen!

Since arriving in foster care, Frodo has been making up for lost time and discovering just how wonderful the world can be. From beach trips and woodland walks to café visits, pub outings and even a spot of “doga” (which mostly involved napping and showing off his roaching skills), he’s thrown himself into every new experience with enthusiasm. He recently attended Goodwoof too, where he loved meeting people and soaking up all the attention.

Frodo will suit most homes as he enjoys getting out and about, but he’s equally committed to the finer things in life, such as long lie-ins, lazy afternoons and finding the perfect spot for a snooze. He has mastered the art of balancing adventure with relaxation and is just as happy exploring as he is curled up at home afterwards.

Frodo can’t wait to find his forever home where he can experience even more adventures, cuddles, and make happy memories with his own family.

In the early days of adoption, it’s your responsibility to keep Frodo safe by keeping his world small and calm. Take things slowly and gently build up to more exciting experiences – too much, too soon can be overwhelming and may make the adoption harder.

Please remember to stay calm and relaxed throughout this settling-in period. If you feel anxious or stressed, then your new dog is likely to feel the same. Greyhounds are incredibly sensitive, emotional souls and are very good at picking up on our moods.

Frodo has only spent time in kennels, so some everyday household sights and sounds may still feel new, confusing or a little worrying for him. He’ll need gentle introductions to things like hoovers, TVs and busy home life, along with plenty of reassurance as he learns that he’s safe. With time, patience and understanding, Frodo will blossom into a wonderful companion, ready to share life’s adventures with you.

Before applying to adopt, please read our FAQs and take a moment to familiarise yourself with the 3-3-3 rule. This is some of the best advice available to help a new dog settle successfully into their new home.

3 days – In the first three days, your dog may feel scared, anxious or overwhelmed. He may also test boundaries as he tries to understand his new environment.

3 weeks – After around three weeks, he should start to feel more settled and become familiar with his routine. This is often when his personality begins to shine through.

3 months – By three months, your new dog will truly understand that this is his home. He’ll feel relaxed, secure and trusting, and much more like himself.
