What breed is my energetic Shih Tzu mix puppy? Health & temperament

Question

I have a ShihTzu mixed puppy, she’s currently 19mos, very energetic(hyperactive almost), and I wonder what mix is she. The dam is a ShihTzu mixed(was sold as pure ShihTzu). Attached photos below, her name is Aurora, born 26/3/2017, pure ShihTzu sire, Tzu mixed dam. She’s about 38cm tall and weighs around 6.5kg, and has double coat. I would really love to know roughly what type of mix is she so I could have some clue on what to be aware of, healthwise and her temperaments. Thanks a bunch!

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Honestly, I think that her mom is either purebred or almost is. I would expect your pup to either be a purebred Shih Tzu or being very close to it so in terms of behavior and expectations, I would be expecting what I would expect for a Shih Tzu. She is adorable! Good luck and have a great day!
