HELP: Figuring out my dog's breed (images included)

Hello everyone, this is my first post, and I'm trying to figure out what my dog's breed is. I'm sure she's a mix, and some suggestions have been border collie/terrier. She is 11 years old and I would LOVE to find another one similar to her later on. She has the sweetest and most unique personality. I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out what she was. Here are a few photos:

Any suggestions are welcome. Thank you in advance!

She is cute! She almost looks like she has a little pit of Pomeranion in her.

I agree with pomeranian and would like to add chihuahua. IMO she's way too small for a border collie. A good way to find another dog like her is on petfinder.com.
A pom-chi is a designer breed and as you can see in this page, no two look alike, but the second to last photo on the page with a dog being held looks almost like yours but brown. http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/pomchi.htm

She said 11 years, not months :p I think she's as grown as can be.

She reminds me of a Papillon mix, honestly :p Either way, she is VERY cute! Petfinder is a great place to find a pup that would fit you, definitely look for a great personality before looking at appearance. She could be a number of breeds, but one thing for sure as that she is obviously the perfect pup for you, and you can find that in a variety of mixed breed dogs.

She looks very much like a long-haired Dachshund:

Perhaps the other half is pomeranian, but I also think she looks very spaniel-ish, so I think her other half is anyone's guess. I know it's very unlikely, but she looks ALOT like a Tibetan Spaniel to me. It could just be my bias as I *adore* Tibbies :p

She does look like a papillion mix... but I kind of doubt it because papillions are not very common dogs. I think pomeranian/chi.

I see multiple breeds in her :). Tibbie, Pom, Chihuahua to name a few. She sure is a little cutie though.

I see either Papillon or Pomeranian with some Chihuahua. I definitely see chihuahua because of the shape of her head. It could be from another breed that I don't know of, but chi is the first one that comes to mind. Then for the long hair either Pom or Pap.

I agree... I thought so too, or even possibly a beagle. Looks like some kind of hound and Spaniel (perhaps Pom) to me.

she has the bigger ears like a papillion does and she also has features of a chiuaua so i would say she is pap/chi

What a little cutie! She looks a bit like my dog, who is a dachshund/pap mix.

I agree with Giselle...

I was going to suggest just about the same things - literally. I thought Dachsound right way, but definitely looks like could be some Tibetan in there too!!!
