Many dogs are born with or develop a hunch in their backs with time. It doesn't always mean they have an injury or IVDD or that they are in pain but those things do have to be ruled out to be on the safe side. I am so glad OP is looking for her owner as I know Tibbe would likely look pretty scruffy if he'd been out on his own for very long. He looks scruffy right after a bath and he gives himself a good wallow!!!
