Rubicon

My story

Meet Rubicon-your future lap buddy! We welcomed Rubicon into the Frosted Faces family on April 5th, and it didn’t take long for one lucky Foster family to scoop him up and shower him with love. Rubicon is a 10-year-old, 13-pound bundle of sweetness. He’s friendly, gentle, and a huge fan of pets, cuddles, and curling up in your lap. Basically, he’s the coziest little shadow you could ask for! Since settling into his foster home, we’ve learned that Rubicon is a total lovebug who thrives on companionship. He adores being talked to, enjoys short walks in familiar places, and rides like a champ in the car. He even likes his crate and finds comfort in a good routine. Rubicon does have some arthritis and cataracts, so he’s not about to hike any mountains—but he’ll happily trot alongside you on mellow strolls. Think of him as your very own little “seeing-eye human” magnet—he’ll stay close and follow your lead with trust and devotion. Now that he’s comfy, Rubicon has also found his voice! He’s started alerting his humans when someone’s at the door, but he’s learning the “quiet” command and is getting the hang of it. A little background noise, like the radio or TV, helps him stay relaxed when left home alone. Rubicon is a bit shy at first with new people, but once he gets a sniff and a moment to settle in, he blossoms into the sweetest sidekick. He gets along with other dogs just fine, though he’s more about people than puppy parties. He’s not picky about food and does well with regular potty breaks (every 2–4 hours during the day keeps him accident-free). Bonus: he sleeps like a dream through the night. Rubicon is looking for a quiet, loving home where he can feel safe and treasured. Ready to meet this charming senior? Email placement@frostedfacesfoundation.org to set up a date with Rubicon!
