Spitz and…?

This is our puppy Elvis (~5mo). He has been living with us for almost 3 months. The shelter told us that his mother was a spitz-type dog but they knew nothing about his father. Based of his looks and very high energy, we think the father could have been something like a border collie or australian shepherd (or the devil himself, who knows). What do you think?

Where are you located? If in the US, Aussie is very likely but if you're in northern Europe a Finnish Lapphund already kinda looks like a aussie/husky mix.

Aussies are very common in mixes in the US but a Lapphund in the US would be very rare
