Dog Breed Identification?

My rescue looks like part Catahoula and ? She is hyper, runs like the wind, has a 36 inch vertical jump, chews, and digs. She loves children, but seems to be somewhat protective.

Delta weighs 38 lbs and is almost a year old. She is definitely an alpha. Any guesses what might be part of her mix? Thanks. closeup of face

Your dog looks like a Australian Cattle Dog mix, also known as a Queensland Heeler, and a very lovely one at that. It is my favorite breed, and I have a very similar looking dog myself. The color is called blue merle. They also come in red merle. He is protective of me and my (his) personal property, like my (his) truck.

It's important for Cattle Dogs to be well socialized with other people and children to prevent bad behavior. I attached a photo of both of my Cattle Dog mixes, a blue and red.
