There is a hugh German Sheppard dog show staying at my hotel this weekend so this morning I asked one of the guys staying if I could shoot one of his dogs for my own stock photo collection. I get these dog shows every year and I dont have any marketing material associated with dogs. He had asked me to make him a nice photograph and so I did...I think.

If this was your dog would you like this done for you? I only have till this evening to make changes your help would be greatful. Apparently this dog is going to be in a competition next week in Alabama for top German Sheppard in the nation. He won yesterdays competition so I gave him the "Champion" Distinction.

It would help if the image was there duh

I think I would use the dog's name with a Ch. in front of the name instead of the word champion... Nice photo and ps work.

Only problem I dont know the dogs name. I forgot to ask him. I was just going to print and 8x10 for him with no name or anything then I did this in PS.

I think he will be really happy when you give this to him. Some suggestions: The crop to the left is too close to the nose. Leave some more coloured space in the direction the dog is looking at.
For what concerns the title: Why do you add the '...'? I think 'Champion' works much better than '...Champion...'. Also, the font you used is too common. It doesn't look good (to me) because it is a standart windows font, which I am tired of. Check out DaFont and find a classy font which you like. A cool font with a slight (!) drop shadow will make a big difference.

I would've asked that the inside square be a little larger but other than that I think its great.
