What likely breed is puppy?

Hi, one of my niece bought this on impulse, I am trying to find out its breed to give her some advice of its temperament and its genetic profile. Its a mutt with stripes.

Picture linked below.

Update:

Hi All, that was quick. My niece bought the puppy at a street junction in Hainan island, China. We thought the dog was painted. FYI, picture was downloaded from MMS, crop and enlarge. No PS.

Update 2:

It is sad if someone painted the pup with stripes. The color do run all the way to the skin, too much work to sell a pup at a street corner for $20. I thought its a raccoon dog but thats another species belonging to the canine family.

    That is the rare tiger chow chow. Love to eat asian deer. Aggresive though. Makes a good pet with proper training.

  • It looks like a rare Tiger Chow.Very ferocious,needs lots of training,but a good hunting dog.Tell you niece congrats.

    That doesn't even look a dog! But if I had to guess, it would a chow mix of some sort.
