There are more in my misc critters photo file...including the face of the creature whose tail you see here....but look at that perfect stalk-is that a dog or is that a DOG?

Oliver's father was a largish (10 pounds or so) fawn colored short coat chihuahua. His mother appeared to be a schnauzer/dauschund mix, only larger-she was built like Oliver, but kind of a brindle color-with the shaggy coat. Sometimes poodle mixes can get a wirey coat but I'm pretty sure his is schnauzer in origin.....he's got a big old schnauzer schnoz-looks better now that he's grown a beard.
My neighborhood has a lot of schnauzers/dauschunds, and these were just back yard, running loose dogs.
What's really sad is there are several places that have 5 dollar spay/neuter vouchers, but these people would rather just hand out puppies in the parking lot. Ollie was worm ridden and had pretty bad intestinal upsets when I got him, he was also anemic. I really doubt any of the other puppies made it, because he required a lot of care and no one wants to spend money on a "free dog"....Ok, sorry, you got me started.
Is Scooby sweet natured? Oliver is a very "soft dog"....wants to play and please, but will just fold if you scold him.
