What mix am I?? Labrador and... Yorkshire??

Hi, I just found this forum and would like to know what people think of my little puppy.

She's 15 weeks old right now and is a very good pup We bought her from a guy we didn't know and he told us she's Labrador and Yorkshire (which didn't seem to make sense to us lol) we saw the mother and she's a 40lbs black lab so we know for sure she has Lab and she looks like a lab, now our vet says he doesn't think it's possible for the dad to be a Yorkshire... but for sure the dad is a very tiny dog because at 15 weeks old she's only 12lbs and according to the growth chart she will be between 20 and 25lbs full grown.

looks terrier to me, and as for the mom, a lab weighs between 60-85 pounds...she had to have been a mix also.

Definitely has a terrier face and coat. Whatever she is, she's 100 % adorable!!

The mental image I keep getting from trying to picture a Lab and a Yorkie... not so adorable though!!

Thanks everyone... and I never thought she could have some Jack Russel in her but I looked at pics and wow.. maybe she does..

And just so you all know.. NO it doesn't matter what mix she is.. she could be 10 different mixes and we still love her to death... started showing her tricks yesterday and she's just the cutest thing in the world

Aside from the fact (s)he's pure bred adorable, I go for Jack Russell, too. You may wind up with a very smart, very stuborn dog on your hands if the personality goes the Jack Russell way.
