Beautiful dog and nicely done. I would add just a bit of sharpening though, at least at this size image to highlight the dogs eyes better.

Very nice looking pup and exceptional exposure.
The only critique I might offer is to follow the rule of 3rds and move the dogs head (i.e. the center of interest in the photo) from the center of the frame over more towards the left of the frame and bring in a little more neckline/body. The left side of the frame is conspicuously empty and therefore conspicuous to me. Otherwise, well done!

Really great capture of facial expressions, Ive always loved that intimidating husky look, only c&c i would say is like the others, just a little soft around the rest of the face

Great shot! I agree with a little more focusing on the eyes. Gorgeous animal

I wouldn't worry about following the 'rule of thirds'...this guideline always seems to get mentioned in critiques as a fallback (not that its wrong, just that its overrated as a compositional matter IMO). I'd do a square crop (or somewhat close to square), getting rid of the space on the left as well as the dog's body on the right...basically just keeping the dog's head centered. Since the primary focus seems to be the piercing eyes, a center-square crop would really highlight them and remove any distractions at the same time.

Disclaimer: I'm extremely biased towards your subject (even without ever owning one, or any dogs for that matter :( )

With that out of the way, i really like everything about this photo. This is a very commanding subject and heck, i'd put him in the center of the photo too! I like the different 'feel' of the photo too. I'm typically used to seeing sharp images of dogs but this one just works very well.

nice color. Try removing the white speck on the fur just above the dogs right eye.
