Her Name is Cindy
Her Name is Cindy and she has what they call the brindle color. Her person’s name is Hunter, yes that is right. Seems like the names should be switched around, I thought I heard her wrong when she introduced herself to me. But I asked again, just to make sure. Hunter is the person and Cindy is her dog.
Brindle is caused by the accumulation of melanin in the hair shafts, which give the fur a reddish hue. Brindle can occur anywhere on the body, but is most commonly found on the head and hindquarters. The gene responsible for this color change is recessive, so it needs two copies of the mutant gene to be expressed for a dog to develop brindle.
It is a very unique and beautiful color pattern I think.
Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas

Happy Holidays to you as well π
We had a brindle Pitbull for seventeen years, it’s such a special coat, the splashes of colors in-between. Like natures paintbrush went wild.
It is so pretty, I love this color.
