Also very scant hair on his back and a ton of little mats...probably from scratching. Under his legs he is raw...I felt so badly for him watching him scratch with those open areas. I know it has to hurt him. They will shave him down and bathe him ... and he will feel better.
I really will not know much until Monday. They will make him comfortable until then. Then, they will run lab tests and see what that looks like. I also wanted him tested for heartworms to be absolutely certain he is positive.
In Beaumont when we took him out for a walk, he balked when it was time to go back into the pet taxi. I had to shove his little butt in and he was fine ... no snippy behavior at all. He seems to be a very sweet guy!
