Hi, Jean. :hi:

Your little doggie is really cute!  I think the ears a bit too upright for a poodle; perhaps more terrier/chihuahua or the like.  If we have a "Name that Dog" contest, my choice would be Pickles .....  :pb:

Sorry I don't have any real info for you.  Like you, I am waiting for others to post.

Your little dog gave me a good smile today!

Thanks .... Lily  :sun:

Does the "sticky out bit" have a hole in it?

????????

Could he/she be a Circus Dog?  click HERE

You know one of those ruffled things around its neck -- like in the above pic.  Maybe that is the type of Dog it is suppose to be to - ears standing up....as quite often those types of Dogs are Circus Dogs.

Just guessing here....sounds good "Pickles the Circus Dog..."  :thup:

I think you have the right idea, Rose! :rah:

The reason I asked about the hole in the collar came from the possibility "Pickles" may have been part of a 'family' (yes, baby Pickles ....  :chky: ) of three with little chain leashes connecting them.

Anita has taught me to look at feet.  However, I don't know enough to say anything more than Pickles does indeed have 'feet'.

By the way, is that a bit of white on Pickles' back?

Lily  :hi:

Unfortunately, any additional photos right now would be for my own enjoyment rather than further help for you (from me :'( ).  I feel certain Anita will check in when she is able.

I'm never much help with this kind of dog. I'm torn on this one. It has the egg yolk eyes that are like some of the older Murano dogs of unknown parentage. But it legs and body remind me of some of the ICET dogs. I'm not sure which this is.
