It's probably not a breed. Breeds are something people, in certain countries, have artificially made and enforced in recent history. Otherwise, dogs are just dogs.

I'm also hasitent to call it breed but I don't know the right word to put on the title since English is not my native language, what type of dog maybe?

You're using the right word, the above comment is referencing the idea that "breeds" aren't natural. It's something humans made up because they keep inbreeding dogs to get particular looks.
