Are you sure? There might be some references to them, even though no living dragons appear as characters.

Of course Smaug does get referenced (in Fellowship, Frodo actually meets Glòin, i.e. Gimli's dad and one of Bilbo's fellow adventurers in The Hobbit). But still, it's fair to say that there are no actual dragons anywhere in LOTR.
