Is this a White Dutch Shepherd Mix?
I recently adopted this dog

And I thought she was a white gsd at first, then maybe a malinois, or Australian kelpie, but now I just don't know ha-ha.
She's very well behaved and was already 3 years old when adopted. Very timid and shy but doesn't bite. Only really barks when played with. She was in the shelter for about a month and I decided to adopt her instead of a younger 3 month old dog that I hope would probably be okay...
I'd love to know if anyone can guess her lineage. Thanks

Definite no on the DS mix. Looks more like a type of cattle dog mix to me.

Ha-ha like this one?http://www.akc.org/dog-breeds/australian-cattle-dog/
I thought it might be also be this https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_Kelpie
UPDATE I think it maybe this dog https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_Heeler
When I got her all it said was Shepherd Mix... Is Shepherd just a general term for herding groups? I'm so new at this I only new of the GSD.
More confirmation would be great...

Re: Is this a White Dutch Shepherd Mix?
I'd say no to DS. I'd say no to Kelpie, too. Kelpie dogs usually aren't white. Could be an Australian Cattle Dog mix or maybe a Koolie mix.

Re: Is this a White Dutch Shepherd Mix?
Wow I think it maybe a koolie or Texas heeler both of which have cattle dog mixed in.

Re: Is this a White Dutch Shepherd Mix?
A Shepherd is a herding dog, there are many types of them. This is not a DS
