I elected to use a rating table to decide on what value to assign during voting.
Here̢۪s the table:
1 No Animal/People Interaction
2 Slightly Appealing, but no Animal/People Interaction
3 Moderately Appealing, but on Animal/People Interaction
4 Greatly Appealing, but no Animal/People interaction
5 Not Appealing, but possessing Animal/People Interaction
6 Slightly Appealing and possessing Animal/People Interaction
7 Moderately Appealing and possessing Animal/People Interaction
8 Greatly Appealing and possessing Animal People Interaction
9 Better than #8, and caused an audible sigh
10 Better than #9, and would likely declare it a favorite

Ok. . I was just browsing thru the thumbs here, not even thinking I had enough time to vote on this challenge -- but after seeing this -- it is getting my 10 vote -- and I'm making sure I vote enough for it to count. Because if it doesn't win a blue ribbon, you have been totally robbed by an inferior photo! I can't imagine having a photo this cool of my pet! Congratulations! And thanks for being such an awesome owner who would get out and play in that weather :)

Oh my goodness! This is too funny - what a terrific capture. The way that dog is just exploding out of the snow, lol! Would be nice perhaps if the human interaction part was a emphasized a litle stronger though...

This will ribbon (I hope)...emotive, fun, exhuberant and interactive with Human that threw the ball. Only negative is the snow being overexposed to get detail in the darker fur and eyes of the dog. May bump score later...
