Help with identifying the x?

Mince Pie

I adopted this little beauty a few weeks ago but struggling to figure out her x. I've been told she is a terrier x but not sure what kind of terrier and crossed with what?

On a first glance I would say some sort of wire haired jack Russell would be in there somewhere, but I'm sure there are more people on here that would have a better idea than I would! No
Matter what the breed is though... What a cutie!!

Shes twice the size of a JRT and high energy. Loves running and would just cuddle you all day. I love her. My other pooch has fallen for her as well.

Hmmm maybe a collie or a springer spaniel in there somewhere too giving the bigger size? Sounds like a little character!

Mince Pie

Someone said that she looked like she had collie in her earlier, they also said she looks like a Disney dog. Lol

This should give a better idea of her size beside the lurcher madam.

She probably is a lot of things, but she looks a lot like a smooth haired fox terrier! Her head is a little on the round side.

That is a breed that originated from various other terrier crosses though, so its no surprise that she looks a certain type, even if she has no 'pedigree' background. I've seen similar looking dogs arise from complete muttxmutt crossings.

She's a beautiful girl regardless

Could venture any guess as to the mix, but she is darn tootin' gorgeous, and your lurcher, too! They both landed on their paws, I'd say.

She is an absolutely beautiful dog. I think you can proudly say she is a "Heinz57" dog - a little bit of everything.

Mince Pie

I like that Heinz 57! I was more curious as to find out what her mix is for characteristics and also insurance & health wise t'is good to know.
She is so much cuter in real life, so hard to get a good picture to capture her.

Found a good one, the things doggies do for cheese!

I would not say Wire Fox Terrier as they are a small narrow type dog. To me there is something about the width of her jaws that suggest staffie. She has a strong muzzle & that smiling face. She is also wide in front. Also could be a bit of lurcher/collie type in there.

She is lovely.

Thoughts on possible Beagle in there?? Just by the body and her energy for running.
The reason I mention Beagle is that there is a certain stubborness to her as well.

Theres a pointer in there i reckon...

Gran Hermano

Outside bet? Part boxer or staff in the mix.
Hard to tell with the photo angle.

Beagles have hound type ears & would have more lip. Hound ears would not be erect.

I thought about the ears after I posted that but thought she resembled them in body and the fact that her nature is sweet but a little stubborn. (as in she likes to finish her sniffing before she will come back to me)

Aside from the clear terrier influence, this was the first thing that popped into my head too... English Pointer. Not first generation perhaps, but there's a resemblance, to my eye at least!

That'd be the terrier in her ;-)

Mince Pie

Awesome, before I got my lurcher love, I'd been toying with getting a pointer so got one in the end.

My vote is for spaniel, I have a JRT x spaniel and she has a HUGE chest, she's a medium size girl too but has a longer snout
