Perfect? I don't know. Tina seems pretty pleased with it. And besides, that title was shorter than "The Mildest Halloween pic on FurAffinity 2007". Which this probably is.
This pic is closest to what "Late O'Ween" was going to be originally, titled "It Rained in the Pumpkin Patch", which would have featured Tina trying to drag a fairly large pumpkin out of a very muddy pick-it-yourself field (and not really being dressed for the task--but most of you know by now that mud never stopped her before). That pic somehow didn't pan out early in the sketch phase, and it was salvaged by having her seated atop a pumpkin waiting for somebody.
This pic doesn't quite fulfill the original vision either, as she has already succeeded in wrestling a rather large pumpkin from a sloppy field (it rained early in the day, alright?) and is now carrying her prize home with the aid of a luggage cart. I don't know how she managed to track that much mud all the way home, but it's a good bet she isn't going to be let in till she at least hoses down that pumpkin.
A version without the muddy shoes that also explains why there are two versions of this pic can be found linked below. After the season is over and the pumpkin starts to rot/collapse, maybe she'll take it out somewhere and trample it into mushy bits for you :D

If the mud was of the right consistency (clay like with sufficient adhesion and enough moisture to make it clump together in large chunks) yes I can imagine her leaving a long track trail home.
I think the actual depiction of the aforementioned mud level is a little inconsistent given the entire bed and wheels of the cart are covered (suggesting they were completely immersed) while only the soles of her platform shoes are dirtied but as for track value and colour this looks fine to me.
