Hello and thank you for reaching out to Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Charlie is very cute! I agree with the yorkshire terrier given his coloration and border terrier, given his wirey coat appearance. I think he could also have cairn terrier in him too. He's definitely a mix of some pretty adorable terriers. I hope this is helpful!
