I promise, I'll try to get face pictures today!!!
Good News! He does not have heart worms! The vet said he is not a day over a year old, if that, and as such, is too young to have heart worms. He did test him though, just to be sure and the test was negative.
The vet says he is very healthy, no problems at all. He said he needs to gain a couple of pounds, but thinks he will with some good food. Oh, and he is a schnauzer - maybe mixed with something else because his long matted hair did not look like schnauzer hair - but shaved, he looks just like a schnauzer and the vet confirmed.
He is so trusting and well behaved. When my daughter took him into the vet office, there were lots of other dogs/cats. She said he barked and strained against the leash when they walked in. But she just picked him up and he completely relaxed in her arms. She sat down on a bench and he sat beside her and never said another word or acted out in any way. The vet said his temperament is great.
We are very lucky to have found him (and visa versa)!
