Advice on possible dog adoption

We are looking for a dog to adopt. We wanted to get a puppy that would grow to medium size - we have a 4yo DD (who is very good with animals) but we want to be careful about its background and temperament for this reason.

We have found this lovely dog - they think she's about 1yo and unlikely to grow much bigger. She had a lovely temperament in a puppyish way but not jumpy or nervous at all. They don't know much about her background.

My only concern is that she looks like she might be a Rottweiler cross? I'm a bit nervous about this, particularly considering we don't know anything about her background.

Any opinions or experience of similar type crosses on this board? We can go and get her this afternoon if we want her. DD is already in love! Thank you!!!

sad that her tail has been 'docked' (you say clipped so I assume that is the same thing)
Is this a common practice in Spain? Sad
sorry that is irrelevant to your original post and off-topic but I do feel upset to see dogs without tails unless there is a practical reason for docking.

im a bit confused tbh, you're criteria for a new dog in your initial post was to know her background and temperament and for it to be a medium sized dog.
This dog fulfills none of the above in any way whatsoever (although I'm sure for the right family she would be lovely) .....why is she the one you are considering?
