The dirt really isn't prominent here and is even less prominent due to the blur and glow. Expression doesn't do much for the situation.

I agree with timfythetoo. This would be very nice without the distracting background.

Good choice of background and angle; would prefer a crop that included the whole dog and would like eyes in better focus (looks like the rump is in best focus).

Cute shot for sure. I would be interested to see a very unique perspective in this shot, one I would not normally see otherwise (possibly from 3 or 4 inches off the ground?). Good catchlights in the eyes. I keep thinking about the off-center composition here, and my main thought is it feels unbalanced. Maybe if the tail was laying (or swinging) to the left side of the frame, or the dog was looking a little left, through the shot, it would help provide counter balance to the placement along the right 2/3rds vertical line.

No fair playing the "Kid Card." They are a beautiful gift, and each one unique. Just the right touch of dirt. Thank you for the happy face.

Man, I wanna see dirt all over his face like he spent two hours playing mud football. Cute smile though. 4

Very nice! I like the way you isolated it from the background.
