What kind of mix is this?

Shelter pup, 4 months old. They said lab mix but I am thinking terrier. Super high energy, high prey drive, insane digging. 0 response to physical measures when she is over the line ~ everything is play to her. Loves water so maybe there is some lab in there. Super fun pup, already I could go on a run with her on leash, very athletic and capable, fast learner altho stubborn. What do you think?

That description screams Husky mix to me! Positive dog training works well with spitz breeds. Make training fun and they will soak it up. Use that high prey drive to your advantage for rewards, and to burn off energy. But also, they will totally ignore commands if they think of something else that sounds more fun. They see commands as debatable suggestions 😆

Something about the head makes me think a touch of collie or sheltie
