She's a doll, whatever she is! She has a very intelligent look in her eye. Brains and beauty!!

To me she looks like she has Jack Russel in her. The body sure looks like one. I am sure WDawson will be in soon and he can tell you. I am not sure what the other breed is but not thinking Shih tzu. Whatever she is she is a cutie!

Yep, I see jack in there too. She actually looks very much like a couple of dogs that belong to friends of mine... one of them is a jack/shih tzu, and one is a jack/pug. I definitely see jack in the body, hair and face though. Whatever she is, she's absolutely adorable!

Oooppss, sorry Tommysmom. I must have had a brain freeze when I typed that yesterday to forget about you and Tommy.

She looks like a JRT and Papillion mix

Come to think of it she does have the high energy of a Jack Russel Terrier..But I still can't explain the face the more i look at her she reminds me of a boxer but but that would be impossible for a bigger dog to breed with a small dog and have the puppy survive birth..

My guess is cocker spaniel - or the like - and jack russell.

It wouldn't be impossible if the MOM was the boxer and the dad the jack... and I've seen large breed females lie down for a small male... where there's a will, there's a way! A lot of the jack/pug mixes have that look though, they sort of get the puggy type face but more elongated snouts. I guess it might be easier to tell as she gets older, but either way you've got one heck of a cutie on your hands right now... she's just adorable! You're going to have to post lots and lots of photos so we can keep guessing.
