 This is my wolf mix Sierra. She has the most beautiful amber eyes. I got the idea from a previous photo of her that my roommate did a few years ago.
She is a very photogenic dog but it is hard to get her to look right at the camera.
I thought about cropping out the muzzle and nose, but I didn't like how it looked. It had no perspective without the muzzle.
