Possibly a coydog.
That sucker has to have some collie in it.
Very cool and definitely never seen one like it.

Ain't no way that isn't the spawn of a collie.
Awesome, never seen that color. It is a pure bred coyote.
How can you tell?
There are others here than im sure have more knowledge than me. It is biologically possible, but very unlikely. Coyotes have a breeding season while domestic dogs have a cycle, and while these two can overlap, the social behavioral differences would make it an extremely rare thing in the wild. However a domestically raised coyote can and would be much more likely to successfully breed with a domestic dog.
