This little guy was at my door Wednesday morning looking all hungry. Lots of food, some tick and flea treatment and his is happy. I have been around to the neighbors and nobody know where he belongs. I think he may have found where he belongs.

Cute little guy. Even if he is camera shy. Looks like you have a new buddy.
OP
I don't know where he was before he got here but real surprise the coyotes didn't eat him. When I called one of my neighbors he said he saw 3 coyotes come through his pasture this week. A little fellow like this doesn't need to be out and about by himself.
That's cool. A Jack Russell terrier?
Looks more like a Chihuahua mix to me. Kudos to you for his rescue!

Sometimes they find you! That's been my experience on a couple of most worthwhile occasions.

I thought Jack R at first but I really think he is probably a chwhowawho mix. 
He has the temperament of a Jack. He's a cool little dog. I'm sure with a little effort I'll have him reading and writing in no time.

Get the little guy to the vet and see if he has a chip by chance. Get him his shots and neutered and enjoy life with your new family member. You are both fortunate. We have 4 cats who are all rescues and they are our family.

If he is part Jack Russel they are great mousers.
If it's a beagle it probably ran 3 counties before he lost the scent. There wasn't a tag on that collar? Beagles need a GPS tracker.

Chiweenie?
OP
No tag on his collar and doubt he has a chip. That is not very common where I live but I am going to get my vet to check him. I just checked on him. He is in his dog bed all snuggled down in his blanket sleeping like a fat rat.

Sounds like he moved right in and took over didn't he.
Good for you. All of our dogs are rescue dogs and I really believe that they can sense that you "gave them a chance." They are fine companions and friends. You won't regret taking him in.
Many years ago a really cute Bulldog puppy wandered on to my fron lawn early one morning and then sat there watching my front door. My wife and I gave him some water and dog food, and then tied him to a rope and that to a big tree in the yard. He looked like a purebred bulldog and we thought for sure someone would be coming around looking for him. All day long we sat outside and my wife got really attached to this guy by the time late afternoon rolled around. I told her that if no one showed up by about 15 minutes from right then we would take him in, place a "found dog" ad in the paper (years before the internet) and if no one replied, keep the critter. Just as we were about to go in for the night a station wagon with a whole family drove by, the kids jumped out of the car and ran to the puppy yelling and hooping and hollaring as the puppy got really excited. They thanked us profusely for taking care of their new puppy and then went on their way. My wife was almost as sad as when we had to put a dog down.

Nothing cuter than a little bulldog puppy.

You sure about that?
Florence & her brother Edward, our latest rescue pups. Found them in the middle of the street, running loose at 8 weeks old, wormy & flea ridden, 7 years ago. Flo & Eddie are Dorkies, Weenie/Yorkie mix, per my vet.

We had a "schnoodle" (Schnauzer - poodle) abandoned in our backyard-had to have been lifted over a 3-4 ft fence. I was gone but came home to "Is there something you want to tell me?" from the wife. Being experienced in the ways of married women, I said I'm not answering until I know what I am accused of! Never found out where he came from, bonded with my GSP. At 16 (I was doing my thesis on bears and estimated he was six from tooth wear when we got him), he was diagnosed with cancer. He lived to be 22 and was all personality Even tried to take on two Rotts to protect my wife while they were walking! For any Shakespeare fans, he was Falstaff.
Except for that first GSP, all our dogs (mostly GSPs) have been rescues!

Our "rescue" was Jessie Girl; Some low life slime ball dumped her in the intersection of our two dirt roads at an age of under 6 months. She was a sweetie and lived to over 11 years of age when severe cancer in her bladder and abdomen forced us to have her put to sleep; I still miss her. Loved my Dachshund MISTER that made it to 21 years of age still lives in my heart and thoughts. Now I've got DUKE a rescue from the local Humane Society, they told me he was 6 when I got him making him 8 now; He's part Australian Sheepdog/ Spaniel; I swear it's WATER Spaniel, we cant pass a stream, puddle, lake or beach without him wanting to go swimming. He keeps an eye on me whenever I move from room to room.
OP
Hi my names is Enos. I got my nails clipped today and had a good long bath. I didn't know they made bowls that never gave out of food. And 3 or 4 times a day I get something the people call a treat. Life is looking up.
bless you for making this dogs life better.

Enos looks wonderful and enjoying his home and his own family! 
OP
We had a little dog that looked like that several years ago. Female and she was smart as a whip. Wormed her way in to the family just by straying in the garage.
This is my Jack Russell rescue. The breeder was dying of cancer, and there were 53 animals that needed dispersing. Regarding Jack Russells vs coyote, a 7 lb JR killed a 45 lb coyote in my county.
This young lady sent packing a 80 lb pit bull intent on having my leg for a snack.
