Beautiful dog. Great light and expression. A little tight on the crop. Maybe take the collar off next time. Needs a frame for your wall.

Gorgeous shot. Great light. Nice detail in the fur and eyes. Just too bad you clipped the top of his head.

The dog looks great but the background is a bit distracting IMO.

Thanks, and yes I know I was trying to get the dogs - there were three of them - in areas where there wasn't so much distraction, but these are very active dogs :)

Nice shot and your dog has very interestingly colored eyes. Photo is super-sharp - Somehow the eyes and nose are tack sharp, but still with a nicely blurred background. I'm going to guess you shot this at a focal length of 200mm, at f/4?

And giving him a little more "head room" and removing some of the bg distractions
