Just bought Embark for Henrietta (1 year, 30 lbs). Any ideas of her breed?

Any more pictures? Where did she come from?
I'd guess she's super mixed. She doesn't have any very distinct features that I can see. I've seen foxhound x pit mixes that look really similar, but are larger. So maybe beagle x pit x something else.

Here's another few pictures. She's really scared of the world so it's hard to get pictures of her.
She came to my the shelter I adopted her at from a shelter in Alabama. By the way, the shelter told me she's a lab mix, but I don't know how accurate that is.

Alabama means she's very likely to be some kind of hunting dog mix (beagle, hound, cur, etc). I would still guess a little pit, but predominantly other breeds as her head isn't too big.
Here's a couple old posts that I think have a similar shape to your dog:

It's pretty common to breed various hunting breeds together to make "better" hunting dogs. It would explain her shorter tail as well. That's a pretty common length to dock at for pointers (and I think some other breeds).

Definitely looks to be American Staffordshire to me. Possibly with some sort of hound and maybe lab? But the Pit is definitely in there.

Personally I feel like she’s quite labby? Maybe the coat colour is throwing me, certainly the mouth shape looks like it has some fetching breed in there.

Update: the results are in!

I see some jack russell or rat terrier in there.
Huh, I'd never thought of that. Did you get that from her ears/tail?
Edit: just realized her tail isn't visible in the picture
Her body and the somewhat elongated face/muzzle.
