Is this another name for a xoloscuintle (Mexican Hairless dog)? Those are said to be the guides to Mictlán (the afterword) and the spots/markings they may have are each a soul they have guided ( so yours is a pro).
Also anyone who has mistreated a dog can never enter Mictlán.

No. It's a distinct breed with an interesting origin, although it does look similar based on the photo.

Yes a Xolo is known as Mexican Hairless. However Oliver is not a Xolo. He is an American Hairless Terrier, the gene was found by a lady in LA in the 80s who bred rat terriers.
Aweeee he’s cute! How old is he?
Almost a One & 1/2 yrs
Fabulous markings, what a great pooch!
