Help identifying breed..

Well, I went to the Humane Society today to pick up my cat Brooklyn, after he got neutered. Silly me, thought I'd walk around and look at the little monsters beforehand, and I ended up falling in love with a puppy. :rolleyes: He was in a caged area that is for animals not yet up for adoption, left by their owners. He is still undergoing medical and personality evaluation. The people at the desk could only tell me that he is listed as a poodle mix (??) and that they are not sure if he is going up for adoption because he might have a medical issue, and if that's the case he'll go to rescue. Also, his last owner gave him up because they had too many dogs. :( :(

I'm not sure if he's a poodle, he seems to be more Bichon, being with the dark nose and inset eyes, and he doesn't have a pointy muzzle like a poodle.

He's so so sweet and precious, he didn't bark or whine when I walked by, he set his paws on the fence and wagged his precious tail, smiling at me. Sweet sweet little monster..

What do you guys think.. does he look like a poodle?

Oh, he looks like an angel to me!
Seriously...I agree with you about his looking more like a Bichon...but there's something that reminds me of a poodle, too...but I'm not sure what. Body shape from side-on?
I'm no expert, though.
I would have fallen in love with him, too. :)

oh definate poodle!!! i'd say over 80%....not sure where that adorable tail comes from though!!! but still 100% angel!!!!good luck on adopting your new furkid!!! hope it works out for you both!!!the deli dog :) ;) :D

I'm in love! It's hard to tell from that far away but I do think I see some poodle in that little sweetie! How precious he is! I do hope you are able to adopt him! I am getting pangs for him myself but fortunately I live too far away! I hope his medical problems are just little ones that can be easily overcome. Please do keep us posted!

Looks like a Poodle or Bichon mixed with a little American Eskimo. He is adorable. Are you going to adopt him?

You said he's a poodle mix, so maybe he or she (sry?) is Poodle/Bichon. He's so adorable :D

With the tail held the way it is and the length of the legs, I'm thinking toy poodle.

He/She? could maybe be part maltese?

Thanks for all the suggestions.. he is a beautiful dog .. unfortuantly the Humane Society wouldn't adopt him out, he went to the poodle rescue for behaviour problems... :(
