He is listed here as a courtesy for El Dorado County Animal Services in Diamond Springs, CA. Meet Manicotti — the shyest noodle in the pasta pack. He is the brother of Fritz!When you’ve got a whole family of long, low-riding, delightfully wiggly Basset mixes, what else would you name them besides pasta? And trust us—Manicotti fits his name perfectly. Soft, a little reserved at first... but absolutely filled with goodness once you get to know him.At just 10 months old, this handsome red, neutered boy is still figuring out the world. Compared to his sisters, Manicotti is a bit more of a gentle soul—the kind of pup who hangs back, observes, and then slowly decides you might be worth his trust (spoiler alert: you are).He may be the shyest of the bunch, but underneath that quiet exterior is a very, very sweet dog who just needs a little time, patience, and encouragement to fully blossom. Think of him as a “low rider in training,” learning that life can be fun, safe, and full of love.And once he starts to come out of his shell? Oh, you’ll see it—The playfulness, the silliness, the floppy-eared enthusiasm that makes this whole pasta crew so special. These dogs are affectionate, kind, and just the right amount of goofy.Manicotti would likely do best in a home with older children or no children, simply because he prefers a calmer, more predictable environment where he can build confidence at his own pace.He and his siblings may have been a little under-socialized early on, but they are absolutely thriving now—soaking up attention, learning new things, and discovering just how good it feels to be loved.Manicotti is looking for someone who will meet him where he is... and then gently show him the world isn’t such a scary place after all. Someone who will celebrate the small wins, laugh at the silly moments, and appreciate the quiet magic of earning a shy dog’s trust.Because once you do, you don’t just get a dog.You get Manicotti—your soft, sweet, slightly shy, wonderfully wiggly best friend.And really... who wouldn’t want a little extra pasta in their life?<br/><br/>Shelter information<br/><br/>Location: El Dorado County Animal Services - Placerville<br/>Website: edcgov.us/Government/AnimalServices/Pages/animal_services_main_info.aspx<br/>Phone Number: (530) 621-5795<br/>Address: 6435 Capitol AvenueDiamond Springs, CA 95619
