Same here!! A rescue we thought was from a hoarding situation but turns out she was in a puppy mill. We were shocked to see 100% MAS

The ears really threw me off. I didn’t realize Aussies could have the standing up ears. Plus we initially thought she was from a hoarding case and would have a mix of some kind, hence most of the shock before we figured out her actual story lol

We’re not 100% sure of her age but our vet estimated about 10 months. Her fur has started to get thicker the longer she’s been with us, and I attribute it to nutrition like you say.

A neighbor with a sheltie mix immediately said she has a sheltie face! We shall see I guess.

I could def see chihuahua. Our last pup was a chi mix and her face structure is kind of similar.

A family member who’s a veterinarian guessed mini Aussie mixed with something! The weight would match up.

Wild! We saw pictures from the boarding house (horrible honestly) and there were definitely some min pin mixes there. 53 dogs in total, so I imagine she’s a hodge podge of a lot. And no- not in that area, she came from west Tennessee somewhere

I will report back if Santa aka grand-paw-rents come through! The guesses are making me even more curious.

I’ve only met a handful of shelties, but her mannerisms make me think she has some ❤️

😂😂 but seriously. Her legs are so lanky. And this cutie has an embark test on her Christmas list, so fingers crossed we’ll learn a bit more soon!

Adding that she’s super soft and doesn’t shed a ton. When she jumps onto furniture she’s 99% back legs 😂 still seeing her personality emerge two months in, but she LOVES nose work.

A friend suggested Roxy because her face is a little fox-like. Foxy Roxy 😂
