looks like you got yourself a very nice sharp lens... I love the first picture even though you cut off the paws.

They're good shots! However, the photos where the dogs have quite a bit of white, they're slightly under exposed. You should bump it up by 2/3 of a stop which will also help bring out more contrast and therefore make your dogs pop a bit more against the background.

To know if you're underexposed or not, just compared how the grass is exposed between the photos with a dog with white hair vs. photo #6 (which looks properly exposed to me). Keep the grass consistent and most of your shots will be too. That goes for white balance as well.

I know that number 4, 8 have some problems, I did try my best to fix them with Photoshop but i'm not that good :(
