Jake,
What a lovable lady! Her coat and color are wonderfully pleasant variations of a sienna. It reminds of me of sunsets in Florence, Italy and fashionable camel hair jackets at the same time.
Look at those eyes. It's often worth shooting from the level of the pet or below so you don't see the accumulation of loose tissue at the lower margin of her revealed scleral edges. Also, since the entire right front paw is excluded, cropping away 1.5 cm at the top and bottom might make an alternative portrait that is also pleasant and perhaps stronger.
Thanks for sharing this adorable image. I'm sure she brings a lot of character to your home! Hope she is well!

Thanks for the tip about the eyes Asher. I just downloaded viewnx 2 so now I can crop! I plan on sharpening this pic a bit and cropping out the feet and the frisbee in the back The blurry feet is what I get for shooting at f1.8. Just swapped out the 18-105 kit lense for the nikkor 50mm f1.8 af-d. Loving this lil cheap lense
