Vanilla

[Pataflafla]

I broke and got a puppy from the Parker pound. I've had her for over a month now, but I'm stumped to what her breed(s) are.

I named her Vanilla since she ate a few Nilla Wafers on the way back home before she passed out on my lap. She's a bit slow mentally and very slow physically. She tries to run after dogs at the park, but she gets left behind while they trot away.

She's about 3-4 months old and 20+ pounds. Almost completely potty trained, but sometimes she likes to poop in my sister's room.

The shelter said she was an Akita/Shepherd mix online and a Shepherd/Collie mix on her kennel.
Any ideas as to what she's mixed with?

Her markings remind me of a border collie, but I've seen Labrador mixes with white on their faces.

She looks like she's a total sweetheart though, congrats!

Hm... I'll rhyme off some breeds:
Labrador
Hound
Whippet
Corgi'

I'm probably wrong, but she looks like she has a little bit of everything in her! She is just adorable!

I looked up a whippet/lab and she looks similar to a few of those dogs. If she is one of those, she definitely did not inherit any of the speed. Our other dog can trot faster than her at a full out run.

That might change when she grows into her feet though. They are pretty huge for her.

She also looked pretty similar to a chow/shepherd mix too.

She is adorable and what a perfect name you gave her! Her soft brown coloring even looks like the color of a vanilla wafer! Love it!

I think she is half Shiba Inu due to the colors and pattern of the colors. she looks so sweet! congrats!

Your other dog looks my heart puppy that lives with my mom! So cute!

It's always hard to tell with Mixed breeds. But she is ridiculously adorable! <3

My sister was doing some more searching today and found that she's almost identical to the Smooth Coated Collie.

It gets to the 45-75 pound range that we were projecting and her conformation is almost identical to all the puppies we looked at.

i see maybe border collie/shepard,but something about her says husky/shepard mix to me.

I see Collie in her.. that tail is just like every Dachshund I've ever had, though. I think she's a adorable whatever she is! Those ears are probably very expressive, I bet.

Does she bark a lot? Some breeds are more talkative then others, it might help you figure it out.
