Looks like a miniature italian greyhound (mostly because of the body) with some chihuahua in the face to me

I can see the IG there. But I would rule out Basenji due to the rarity of the breed.

Definitely has IG body, tail and feet. Don't really see Chi but some type of terrier in the head and muzzle.
