Frodo

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 9 years

Frodo - a good soul looking for his soulmate Country of origin: Germany Breed: Tibet-Terrier Gender: male, neutered Color: brown-white Height: approx. 40 cm. Weight: 11 kg Birthdate: 15.1.2017 Location: 99310 Arnstadt Frodo - a good soul looking for his soulmate Sometimes life presents you with challenges you never would have chosen for yourself. And sometimes love means letting someone go, even though you want to hold onto them with all your heart. Our Frodo is 9 years old and is looking for a new home because his beloved person is terminally ill and can no longer care for him. A change that will certainly not be easy for this loyal little fellow. Frodo is a wonderful fluffy dog - a Tibet Terrier with a big heart. He is very affectionate, sociable and simply a good soul. One of those dogs that don't need much to be happy: loving people, a cozy home and the certainty of not being alone anymore. Frodo has a close bond with his person. This is also evident in the fact that he finds it difficult to be left alone. He doesn't destroy anything, but he cries uninterruptedly until his person comes home. That's why we wish for him a home where he can be left alone as little as possible and where his people understand his needs. Frodo gets along with other dogs and cats and shows himself to be a friendly, uncomplicated companion. His walks can take place at a leisurely pace: Frodo loves to be relaxed on the go, to sniff extensively and to explore the world in peace. Due to his age, he has arthritis, which is why his future people should pay attention to his physical needs and give him the necessary time and support. What we wish for Frodo: A loving home with people who value his closeness, give him security and no longer present him with the challenge of being alone for long periods. People who know that an older dog does not mean a less valuable adventure, but very special moments full of peace, gratitude and unconditional affection. Frodo still has so much love to give. He wants to be there, belong and spend his twilight years at the side of people who welcome him with all their hearts. Who gives our little fluffy bear a home where he can arrive and just be Frodo?

Herkunftsland: Deutschland Rasse: Tibet-Terrier Geschlecht: männlich, kastriert Farbe: braun-weiß Schulterhöhe: ca. 40 cm. Gewicht: 11 kgGeburtsdatum: 15.1.2017Standort: 99310 Arnstadt Frodo – eine gute Seele auf der Suche nach seinem Herzensmenschen Manchmal stellt das Leben einen vor Herausforderungen, die man sich niemals ausgesucht hätte. Und manchmal bedeutet Liebe, jemanden loszulassen, obwohl man ihn von Herzen behalten möchte. Unser Frodo ist 9 Jahre alt und sucht ein neues Zuhause, weil sein geliebter Mensch unheilbar erkrankt ist und sich nicht mehr um ihn kümmern kann. Eine Veränderung, die für diesen treuen kleinen Kerl sicherlich nicht leicht ist. Frodo ist ein ganz wunderbarer Wuschelhund – ein Tibet Terrier mit einem großen Herzen. Er ist sehr anhänglich, umgänglich und einfach eine gute Seele. Einer dieser Hunde, die nicht viel brauchen, um glücklich zu sein: liebevolle Menschen, ein gemütliches Zuhause und die Gewissheit, nicht mehr allein sein zu müssen. Frodo hat eine enge Bindung zu seinem Menschen. Das zeigt sich auch darin, dass ihm das Alleinbleiben schwerfällt. Er zerstört nichts, doch er weint ununterbrochen, bis sein Mensch wieder nach Hause kommt. Deshalb wünschen wir uns für ihn ein Zuhause, in dem er möglichst wenig allein bleiben muss und seine Menschen Verständnis für seine Bedürfnisse mitbringen. Mit Artgenossen und Katzen ist Frodo verträglich und zeigt sich insgesamt als freundlicher, unkomplizierter Begleiter. Seine Spaziergänge dürfen im gemütlichen Tempo stattfinden: Frodo liebt es, entspannt unterwegs zu sein, ausgiebig zu schnüffeln und die Welt in aller Ruhe zu erkunden. Altersbedingt hat er Arthrose, weshalb seine zukünftigen Menschen auf seine körperlichen Bedürfnisse achten und ihm die nötige Zeit und Unterstützung schenken sollten. Was wir uns für Frodo wünschen:Ein liebevolles Zuhause bei Menschen, die seine Nähe schätzen, ihm Sicherheit geben und ihn nicht mehr vor die Herausforderung stellen, lange allein bleiben zu müssen. Menschen, die wissen, dass ein älterer Hund kein weniger wertvolles Abenteuer bedeutet, sondern ganz besondere Momente voller Ruhe, Dankbarkeit und bedingungsloser Zuneigung. Frodo hat noch so viel Liebe zu verschenken. Er möchte dabei sein, dazugehören und seinen Lebensabend an der Seite von Menschen verbringen, die ihn von Herzen willkommen heißen.Wer schenkt unserem kleinen Wuschelbär ein Zuhause, in dem er ankommen und einfach Frodo sein darf?

About Frodo

What life with Frodo looks like

Frodo is a large senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Lebenswert e.V. in Oberwies.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Frodo, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Frodo?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierhilfe Lebenswert e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Frodo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Frodo if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierhilfe Lebenswert e.V. will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Frodo already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Frodo isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Tierhilfe Lebenswert e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Frodo and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
