guess on cute little mix

[Maxy24]

This is a dog at Save-A-Dog who I just could not put a breed to, nothing. Best dog ever by the way. Lets me pet him in the rough and tumble way I like to do and enjoys it, very playful and decent at tug. He's medium, smaller than most pit bulls though.

Oh good grief, is he cute or what? Don't ask me why, but my first thought was there's some Shiba Inu in there. Our son walked in and said he looks like "one of those barkless dogs", so add Basenji to the list. And there's something about his coat that reminds me of a Norwegian Elkhound (obviously not the color- red Elkies are very rare). So, I guess that makes my guess Shiba/Basenji/Elkhound.

I was thinking terrier/spitz/lab/shepherd.

Whatever he is, he's definitely a cutie.

I was going to go with a Corgi/Basenji mix.

Cute pup!!

The first thing that came to my mind is mini pincher, 'cause the face expresion

I'm no dog expert, but he's really handsome...

Min Pin and basenji?

This is going to sound weird, but something about him looks puggish. Like, he might be a quarter pug or something, with some other larger breed/s in him. What a cutie!

ETA: Kinda like someone's "puggle" hooked up with an elkhound, or maybe a corgi or smaller gsd mix or something. I dunno.

Thanks for the guesses everyone! He's definitely mixed with a lot of things, that's for sure. Here's another picture in case it sparks anymore ideas:

I see a ton of chow in there, plus maybe a bit of sharpei (short nose, little folded ears), and maybe beagle for the cute expression??
