I agree with the poodle mix idea....maybe he's been neutered so he doesn't have his "manhood" any more. Have you checked to see if he has a microchip and is just lost? Vets can scan his neck to check for a chip for free and if he has one, you can find his home for him....what a sweetie!

purplefiend - your baby sure is a cute and cuddly one too! Thanks for showing!
We got back from the vet and really didn't learn too terribly much. Remember I said his eyes were different colors? Well, the vet said he HAS lost the vision in one eye and doubts that he will ever regain it - could be from an injury....he said "JACK" could be around a year old....I really don't think so, his bones are ever so frail....vet said his tail looks to be shortened, not inherited. His teeth are fine, his testicles are SUPPOSE to be dropped - for the life of me, I cannot see them!! After grooming I will TRY to take a pic of that part - see what you all think. As far as breed - vet said "could be anything, but for sure poodle"-I learned alot, huh? Doesn't make sense to me why he ended up at our house, if he supposidly was cared for with everything.
Thanks again for all of your insight of our little love. Especially after grooming I will send you another updated picture or 2!

This is a weekend of new saved pets. I now have a kitten, we'll be to the vet on Monday. I have two dogs already, but as far as I'm concerned, you can never have to many pets to love and love you back. Jack is a cutie, and for sure part poodle. The vet can usually tell by their teeth how old they are. I have a 9 yr old that got out of the yard (Pomeranian) and ran for miles through all kinds of weeds and prickers, and the wonderful lady who found him pulled all those prickers off. She thought he was young because he is so active. But when she looked at his teeth she knew he was older. For Jack, he's found a good home, and as tiny as he is he should be very lovable. Take him out for the next few days about every 15 min. to 1/2 hr. He'll get the idea even if he wasn't housebroken from where he came from.
One thing I've learned on this board. Our pets are more important than our quilting. More posts about lost and found pets. It's wonderful. Right now, my less than a pound kitty Tiger Lily, is asleep in my lap. And has also slept on my chest for the last two nights.
Have fun with Jack.
