Hmmm… seems like we need a 23andMe solution for our pups. How bout we call it K9andme. I can remember most of my pups markings and have 100s of pics to refer to. That said they do change pretty fast. Our pup D’Otto was a split head with a nice dot right in white. It started as a dot and it’s still there! But it’s a bit more of an oval these days.
Is this a Basenji Mix?

My guess is Australian Cattle Dog and Rat Terrier mix. Very cute girl!

That would be my guess too… but she is very cute and welcome regardless!

'cept for it looks like she has a curly tail….neither of those breeds would have that...

what a neat looking dog! Her head and slim body looks like a basenji to me, and the fact that it looks like she has a blaize w/lighter color on the chest and feet. Ether way very nice looking dog, neat colors!

That doesn't look like a curled tail to me…?

To me it looks like curls up over her back…one loose loop....kinda like my full African
But also her parent described it as a curled tail in the intro.
It is definitely a possibility that a Decker Rat terrier would have a curled (ish) tail if they weren't docked. Of course, Deckers have quite a bit of Basenji blood in them, so in a way, she would be a basenji mix.
And thanks Robyn for the clarification about blue merle

She is so cute!!!
I would guess that she is basenji and Australian cattle dog. -

I would guess that she is basenji and Australian cattle dog.That was my first guess. But the mother is listed as Terrier, right?
So, was that someone's guess at the shelter, or is that a known?
Because she looks like a Basenji w/cattle dog markings to me! -

Undocked Rat Terrier tails almost always curl up over the back in a loose loop or gay tail.
The tail really doesn't look curled to me though.
