Story
Meet Linguini!
Linguini became a Frosted Face when we rescued him from Orange County Animal Care in May 2023. Shortly after, he was adopted and spent the next two years as the cherished companion of his loving mom. Unfortunately, as her health declined, Linguini returned to us on April 23, 2025.
Thankfully, within hours of his return, Linguini was welcomed into a Foster home with one of our wonderful previous adopters and volunteers. We’re so grateful that his transition back to Frosted Faces was eased by the comfort, care, and calm of a loving home.
There's so much to love about Linguini! Here are some things to know:
* He's good with cats and other dogs.
* You can take Linguini anywhere and count on him to be quiet and well-behaved. That includes restaurants, hotels, dog parks, campsites - just to name a few!
* He LOVES being outside! His foster home is in a high-rise in downtown San Diego, and his favorite hangout spot is a comfy cot (with an umbrella for shade) on the balcony.
* He is up for new adventures! He went paddle-boarding with his foster mom and loved taking in all the sights and sounds!
His Foster Mom, who has given Linguini the nickname Noodle, shared this latest update:
"Noodle’s been with me six months, and last week he fell asleep on my chest for the first time ever! He’s not really a “lap dog” — more of a “I’ll lay next to you, maybe on your legs if you’re lucky” kind of guy. He’s an independent boy. So that little moment absolutely melted me. He often acts like he doesn’t like cuddles, but I say he secretly does - you just have to smother him!
Noodle is very easy to care for and is totally chill. He eats, sleeps, and poops outside like a pro. He does great in belly bands and never tries to take it off!
We just wrapped up a 1,700-mile, 15-day road trip — car camping, crashing with friends, and staying in hotels. Noodle did amazing! He loves being outdoors and would love a yard in his forever home!
Noodle loves getting his steps in checking out new places, and then he settles. He is always quiet and perfectly behaved wherever we go. He sleeps like a champ, and he’s an EXCELLENT car dog — enjoys gazing out the window, getting cuddles, and snoozing.
Noodle does great chilling at home alone while I'm at work. He's such a good boy and just snoozes, watches Bluey, and waits for us to come back. He gets so excited to see us!
Noodle is social with all dogs and is a great with his foster sis, Shelby. He shares and rides perfectly in a stroller with her. Shelby usually initiates cuddles with him, and he is always accepting. I think Noodle could do with or without siblings in his future home.
Noodle is a sweet, strong, stoic senior gent with soft fur, a big heart, and a whole lotta love left to give!"
