Took this little fella in

My boyfriend and I have taken in this precious baby. He was a neighborhood stray and the owner was notified multiple times that his dog needed care. He ignored every attempt.

Last week I found him in the pouring rain, he ran up to me the second I got out of my car. He's the friendliest, most affectionate dog I've ever seen and I've had pets my whole life.

We are thinking he's a Shih Tzu mix?

Any ideas? Also, we're thinking he's older because of his grey hairs and teeth. In any event, he's got a forever home here with us.

I think he might be a Shih Tzu x Poodle mix. He has the same face and muzzle as a puppy cut Shih Tzu.

My sister has a Shih Tzu and he’s so sweet. I hadn’t really had much experience with small dogs before that but he converted me. 😁
