What kind of breed is she?

I have aussies, and she could be a purebred, she would probably be considered a red bi/tri color. The "tail" may be deceiving and makes some purebreds look like a mix.
I see your from Tenn, and I'm assuming that's where you got her, Unfortunately alot of the aussies that end up in shelters down south, are from not so great breeders so they may not "look" exactly like you think a purebred should. She's very very cute and I wouldn't discount "purebred".
Her nose is a little thin/longish for an aussie, but again, don't discount purebred.
Why do you think she doesn't particularly look aussie? Check out these on the rescue site, there are loads of differnt colors/size shapes

Seems everyone is in agreement for the most part. She's 4mos old, her name is Simba,(yes I know, Simba is a boys name, but in Latin it's a feminine name, and she looks like a little lion cub) Yes she's a handful, but has been the best medicine to having to send our last baby to doggie heaven last week after being hit by a car.
This is Brandie with her future best friend, unfortunately the cat hasn't warmed up yet and is still searching for her lost friend. Hopefully she'll come around.
This sight has been fun to brouse through I think I'll check in often. It's nice to see people who appreciate thier "other children"

I think she looks like a purebred Australian Shepherd. Very gorgeous puppy, with lovely colouring! I'm sorry to hear you lost your other dog (who sounds like she could have been a puppy), that's very sad. I lost a 10 month old puppy about 7 years ago (he was poisoned with dog bait at a dog park), and I'm always thinking about him.
