But when you hear her (http://clarus.chez-alice.fr/Museum/Apple/The.Dogcow.moof.wav), it is a dog or a cow? (that site is great and ridiculous, by the way. It, for example, leads to https://www.flickr.com/photos/37996642651@N01/5641577018 (NSFW))
Wow, you're so right! I never would have heard this classic song had it not been for that site:

He has horns and cow spots.
Oh my God, you can't just tell a dog his ears are horns! Also, they are just spots.
"Horns and cow spots!" "Ears and dog spots!" "Horns and cow spots!!" "Ears and dog spots!!"
The effect is probably bigger when you see it in the reduced size.
It's in the article: http://pix-media.s3.amazonaws.com/blog/669/ScreenShot2014-02..., and yes it's way less dog-like (to me) at that size.
Looks like a deer-cat to me.
