I don't know what his makeup is. PAWS estimated he was about 4 or 5 when I got him and didn't really know much more themselves. He obviously had been treated well as he was in good shape physically except for a cold and emotionally as is VERY outgoing and friendly with everyone. He's a hefty 15 pounds (16 in the winter), orange with a face like a lion and pretty orange bloomers...and very much a character and a huge part of life 8 years down the road.
