As professional a pet portrait as I've seen yet. Looks like the dog knows how to model.

Pretty good, except for the reflections in his eyes making his face look a little odd. I like all the texture showing on his nose.

Reminds me of a few of my own cats. Very sweet. Too bad I can't have a cat anymore. (Wife is allergic to them)

Good, but I think cropping to put the dog on the left of the frame would have improved the composition. That way he would be looking into the frame instead of out of it and the viewers eye would be led the same way.

Cute and well done, but your title now has the "Felix the cat" theme rolling around in my head.

Pretty much a snapshot here, I'm afraid. Cute pup, though.

Your file size is only 39k when you could have used up to 200k for this challenge. This indicates a lot of JPEG compression, which is surely taking a lot of detail out of your photo. Check the JPEG compression settings in your image editor and always try to save as close to the limit for a challenge as you can get it without going over. Some Post processing adjustment of curves would have helped give this some depth and bring out some details. Hope this all helps.

Somebody has been swimming. I like it. The sepia was a good choice, but you also kept a good amount of contrast in it.

From the thumbnail, I thought this was Krypto the superdog! Flash is a little harsh, but the dog's cute.

Just ran across this one in your profile, though I know its 5 years old, I still needed to leave a comment.

Really nice, though I like anything with a bicycle. Only improvement I can suggest is to ditch the Shimano 105 and get some Campy gear. ;-}
