Fun Photo Friday: Cute Parts of Korra

Her ear feathers

I’m sure no one will think me biased if I say that Korra, my Border Collie/German Shepherd mixed-breed dog, is the cutest mutt in the world. Possibly the cutest mutt ever.

I know there are plenty of beautiful and adorable mixed-breed dogs out there. I have had others besides Korra. But this dog has so many cute parts I decided to pay homage to them for Fun Photo Friday.

From the Top

First, we have her ear feathers, in the photo above. Next up…

Her ear feathers when wet, which get all crimp-y. And that bit of brown undercoat buried under the black fur on her head.
Her “bandit mask”
The whisper of a white line down her snout
Her Groucho Marx-like “eyebrows”
The “skunk line” of black and white down her leg

Take It Down

The orange feathers on her forelegs, which I call her orangutan hair
The beautiful tri-color pattern on her forelegs
Her enormous plume-like tail, which practically has enough life to qualify as a separate animal
The colors inside her tail: Black on the outside, a tan layer below that and a white layer in the middle
The Grinch-like long fur between her toes
The pink and black pads on her feet. No two pads alike.
The white tip of her tail

The Sum of the Parts

And here she is, with all the parts put together. 

Have you ever noticed that your dog can look completely different in one photo to the next? To me, Korra looks foxy in this photo, and I don’t mean a male dog’s dream. I mean her face looks small and her snout pointed, resembling a fox, which is not how I picture her. I see her more as a big bundle of fluff and love, a bit more like this photo.
